Nov 6, 2022Paradise Marsh tells a little big story in the context of a swamp that is not what it seems to be. Capable to bring us back to the magic moments of childhood, when the capture of a cricket could spark wild enthusiasm and make us smile with joy, the videogame created by Etienne Trudeau invites the players to live life with a different pace, slower and more reflective, and to appreciate the majesty and magnificence of the little things.

Oct 24, 2022Thankfully, even when the going gets repetitive, the vibes of Paradise Marsh are off the charts. The tone-setting music from Disasterpeace (Fez, Hyper Light Drifter) is tremendous, and the chunky 3D world is stylish and wondrous. A handful of mysterious in-game achievements encourage further exploration of the world beyond catching the bugs. Your time in this paradise might be short, but it’s memorable and enjoyable.

Nov 18, 2022Paradise Marsh seems less concerned about being an “adventure” and more about delivering feelings. Some will no doubt appreciate its efforts. Others, like me, might feel it needs to work harder at providing what’s advertised. I feel bad knocking a solo dev’s first release, but I sincerely enjoyed little of my short time with this game, same as our contributor with whom I sought a second opinion. The visual and gameplay repetition combine with other shortcomings to make a forgettable title. Next time.
