Garden Hunt

it's Pacman, but you're an anime snail girl instead of Pacman. While I love the visual style and presentation of the game, the controls were very frustrating. Most notably, I hated that you bump your head and lose some time every time you collide with a wall, rather than coming to a stop like Pacman would. I also found the radar useless as it only really showed your own direction and not anything around you. Eh, it shows promise but the gameplay left a lot to be desired, so I don't personally recommend it.

Short, cute game, gameplay like Pacman but in third person, it's more like a casual game, but it's fun and does a good job to maintain you entertained, I am saying this as someone whose main computer broke down, and meanwhile I fix it, I am using an alternative one, this game was very nice to spend time. Also, the cutscenes (comic) are fully voiced in japanese, and the subtitles are available in A LOT of languages, which I think a lot of people woll appreciate.

독성 슬라임에게서 도망 다니며 퓨어 슬라임을 모아야 하는 팩맨 스타일 게임. 달팽이를 모에화 한 듯한 귀여운 캐릭터와 풀 더빙, 시원스러운 게임 스타일은 확실한 장점이나 분량이 짧아도 너무 짧다. 단 1시간! 본인이 훨씬 신중한 사람이라 리트 없이 클리어한다면 그보다 짧게 끊을 수도 있다. 스토리는 4스테이지까지 존재하는 데 제대로 해결되는 게 없는 개그 스토리에다 분량도 굉장히 짧다. 캐릭터 치장을 비롯한 서브 콘텐츠도 전무한 게임이라 남은 건 고난이도 스테이지를 도전하거나 반복 플레이 뿐. 강력히 추천할 정도의 게임은 아니지만 할인 적용 시 매우 저렴하고, 앞으로 단골 할인될 예정이니 가볍게 논다는 마인드로 시작한다면 괜찮게 플레이할 것이다. 그리고 이 게임의 미니맵은 위협을 피하는 데 전혀 도움되지 않으니 항상 눈 크게 뜨고 긴장하길 바란다.

还有点难了，i5 3470和steamdeck都能120帧运行

Garden Hunt is an arcade-inspired maze action game developed and published by CreaClan (Producer: KamiEna) that successfully reimagines the classic chase-and-collect formula with its own creative personality. Instead of simply recreating the gameplay of older maze titles, it introduces an adorable slug-like protagonist, vibrant garden environments, and mechanics centered on mobility and resource management. While its colorful presentation gives the impression of a lighthearted casual experience, the game quickly reveals itself to be a challenging test of reflexes, planning, and efficient navigation. The result is a compact but engaging adventure that blends nostalgic influences with fresh ideas to create an experience that feels both familiar and distinctive. Players guide Meina through elaborate hedge mazes filled with collectible slime while avoiding hostile creatures patrolling every corner. The tall hedges restrict visibility, forcing players to react to threats with limited information and making every turn feel unpredictable. Rather than relying purely on speed, Garden Hunt rewards careful observation, route optimization, and quick decision-making. Every successful run demands a balance between aggressively collecting resources and knowing when to retreat before enemies close in. This constant tension keeps the gameplay exciting despite its straightforward premise, encouraging players to improve through repeated attempts. One of the game's most interesting mechanics is its dash ability, which allows rapid movement at the cost of consuming collected slime. Because this resource also serves as an essential gameplay element, every dash becomes a strategic decision instead of a simple convenience. Players must continuously evaluate whether escaping danger or preserving resources offers the greater advantage. Slime trails scattered throughout each stage provide opportunities to replenish supplies, creating a satisfying rhythm of collecting, spending, and recovering. This simple system adds meaningful depth without making the controls overly complicated, making the game accessible while still rewarding skilled play. Garden Hunt also places considerable emphasis on score chasing. Collecting slimes efficiently and maintaining multipliers encourages players to experiment with different routes and riskier strategies. Rather than simply reaching the finish, players are motivated to maximize their performance by clearing stages with greater precision and confidence. This arcade philosophy gives the game substantial replay value, as each session offers an opportunity to refine movement, discover safer paths, and improve overall efficiency. Those who enjoy mastering mechanics and climbing leaderboards will likely find themselves returning long after completing the initial content. Although the gameplay forms the core experience, Garden Hunt adds extra charm through its narrative presentation. Story sequences are delivered in a manga-inspired format featuring expressive artwork and full Japanese voice acting, giving the cast far more personality than expected from a relatively small indie project. These scenes provide context for the adventure while maintaining a brisk pace that never overshadows the action. The combination of lively character expressions and energetic performances helps establish an enjoyable atmosphere that complements the whimsical setting. The game's visual design reinforces its cheerful identity with colorful gardens, attractive character art, and smooth animation. The bright environments contrast nicely with the constant danger hiding behind maze walls, making enemy encounters feel surprisingly tense despite the cute aesthetic. Audio also contributes positively, with upbeat music and voice performances enhancing the overall presentation. Together, the visuals and sound create an inviting atmosphere that makes exploring each maze enjoyable even when repeated failures occur. Garden Hunt also deserves credit for its approachable design. Straightforward controls, built-in tutorials, and support for both keyboard and compatible controllers allow players to jump into the action with little difficulty. Multiple subtitle options further improve accessibility for an international audience while preserving the original Japanese voice performances. These quality-of-life features demonstrate thoughtful design choices that help welcome both newcomers and experienced arcade fans. Its primary weakness is its relatively limited scope. Players looking for a lengthy campaign or a large variety of gameplay modes may find the available content somewhat brief once the mechanics have been mastered. Likewise, the intentionally restricted visibility can occasionally make certain encounters feel more dependent on quick reactions than careful planning. However, these limitations do little to diminish the game's core strengths, as its replay-focused design clearly prioritizes mastery over sheer quantity. Overall, Garden Hunt succeeds by delivering a polished and entertaining arcade experience that combines classic maze gameplay with modern mechanics, charming presentation, and satisfying replayability. Its engaging resource management, rewarding score system, memorable visual style, and energetic storytelling help it stand apart from many other indie arcade titles. While it may not offer the expansive content of larger releases, it consistently delivers enjoyable gameplay that rewards persistence and skill. Fans of fast-paced arcade games and maze-based challenges will find plenty to appreciate in this charming adventure. Rating: 7/10

분량은 매우 짧습니다. 가격값하네요. 도전과제가 없는게 좀 아쉬워요.. 주인공이 매우 귀엽습니다. 간단하게 만든 게임치고 생각보다 퀄리티가 좋아요. 번역이 깔끔하고.. 게임 후반부는 난이도가 정신나갔습니다. 억까도 좀 있고 운빨도 좀 필요해요. 근데 도전과제가 없으니 굳이 도전할 의욕이 생기지는 않네요. 암튼 6월 29일 현재 900원에 판매중인데 그냥 심심풀이가 필요하거나 라이브러리 수집이 필요하시면 구매해보시길...
