During the month of July I discovered the magical bounty of perfection that is Steam during the Steam Summer Sale.
I wasn’t alone, apparently! Ravanel blogged about Botanicula, AKA THE GAME OF MY SOUL OF SOULS, MY HEART OF HEARTS.
After reading Ravalation’s blog, I was SO VERY EXCITED. I purchased Botanicula during the last day of the Steam Sale, and it was no easy feat. I ended up buying it on the Steam app for my phone, because I wasn’t going to be home in time to get it before it was more expensive.
I love this game.
Words cannot describe how much I love this game.
I love the music, the sound effects, the art.
I inflict my love of Botanicula upon whoever is fool enough to cross my path and mention video games, puzzles, bugs, plants, or anything remotely related to it. I talked about it at work. I phoned my mother, my grandmother, my aunt. (Not really, no, but last time I visited my mum I made her play it too.) I give The Boyfriend a play-by-play of my time in Botanicula. (“I HAVE CLICKED THE BUG HE IS MOVING OH MY GOSH THE MUSIC IT’S SO CUTE.“)
Basically what I’m saying is if you love puzzle games, penguins, cuteness, love, free speech, me, art, oxygen … you need to purchase this game. You can even play it on Botanicula’s website FOR FREE.
I have taken around 50 screenshots of Botanicula so far, which can be seen in a image gallery. Right, I’ll stop preaching about the game of my soul.
For now.
MWAHAHAH.
Beautiful pictures. It looks like a game I’d enjoy!
It’s fuuuuuuuuuuun!
I think I’ve fallen in love. That first picture…. is so jaw droppingly beautiful I need this game.
No prizes for guessing what I’ll be doing this weekend then.
SO WORTH IT! It’s an adorable, gorgeous game.
oh wow, yes, I remember Ravanel’s awesome post!
So it’s a “Buy once, play forever” kind of game (haha, stoopid SL peeps don’t even know the lingo!
And is it an MMO? or single player?
And you and Ravanel have not teamed up to do a post on this on iRez because?
Wow, I just looked at Steam and it’s cheep… you got it for even LESS?
Awesome pix! Thanks for sharing!!
It is a “buy once, play forever” game! I’m trying to think of the term, too. Maybe it’s just “game” haha!
Oh my goodness this game is beautiful. I have no idea what it’s all about but I am intrigued *_*
It’s a point and click puzzle game! Very difficult, actually.
Half the time I was playing this, I didn’t know either what it was all about. xD
How pretty! I can only imagine what adorable sound effects and music that would go along with the lovely art.
Mhmmm …
The music and sound effects are wonderful. They make me giggle out loud all the time haha!
So beautiful, I feel another purchase impending! Must see this!
WORTH EVERY PENNY.

How did I manage to miss this post? Yes, I love this game so much as well! It’s just so crazy, it’s amazing to play. You really don’t know what to expect throughout the game.
I found that I needed some breaks in between: if I would keep playing, I couldn’t think in the creative way needed. It’s been a while now, I was actually able to finish the game some months ago.
Same here! I tend to play every couple of weeks. I overdid it the first week and my brain just shut down entirely haha!
