Fossil Corner

well worth the price, in my opinion! it's got me hooked already. i do wish there were more fossils and decor to play around with, but maybe the game will get an update in the future? i sure hope so! i can definitely see myself coming back to play this over and over. i'm already familiar with the developers other, similar game on itch.io called 'plant daddy'. i had a lot of fun playing around with that one when it first came out. overall, the puzzles are fun, the music is charming (had to check if this dev worked on stardew bc some of the music is astoundingly similar) and the graphics are cute and simple. again, desperately hoping this has some content updates in the future!

relaxing thinky fun with funny writing and cute shells

The game wasn't what I imagined it was going to be, but that's totally my bad for not actually reading the description before playing. It ended up being fun! You sort fossils based on their evolution, basically connecting lines between the ones that have one trait off, making it a fun puzzle mechanic I hadn't encountered before. I really liked the little plot that went alongside it, though it was kind of sad that there wasn't a conclusion to it, really, and when I reached 100% of the emails it was really anti-climatic. The achievements are really challenging, and without people to help out in the guides I would absolutely have been VERY frustrated trying to figure it all out. Finished? Yes Steam Achievements? Challenging and grindy. Check the guides for sure. Steam Deck? Worked decently well! Slightly harder to work out than with keyboard and mouse. Rating? 7.5/10 My curator page: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45865425-CozyAriGames/ Full videos on Youtube

very fun game, found myself drawn in by the theme of fossils and sticking around because of the gameplay.

(Please disregard playtime. I had to leave the game running a few minutes to be able to leave a review, but I played the itch.io version of the game.) This is the perfect cosy rainy Saturday game. It's calm and relaxing, never rushes you and never gets too complicated. The soundtrack is beautiful as well, and the e-mails you get from your family and acquaintances add a bit of warmth and humour without distracting from the main part of the game, the puzzles. I don't know how many hours I've played so far, but I am regularly finding very pretty 3 and 4 star fossils now and I have a very nice collection already :) There are some requests in the Finders app that I still can't hope to fulfill, though, and more than half of the unlockables are still waiting for me, as well. I don't think I'm close to done with this game. Highly recommend ♥️

Super cozy logic puzzles game! When I was doing my bio degree in college, I used to haaaate doing phylogenetic trees for classes, but this game simplifies it a bit and makes it fun!

Quaint Bit shallow

Not for me.
