I like these types of games, but I have to agree with other reviews that this game is unbalanced. However, my biggest complain is the lack of decoration options in the game. I thought unlocking new areas on the map would unlock new decorations, but that is not the case. The decor options are super limited, and that makes the game not worth it. There are better collection games out there. Also you can't pat the animals </3
Dies ist ein unglaublich beruhigendes Idler - Hintergrund Dienstprogramm für den unteren Bildschirmrand! Man baut sich eine Voliere an verschiedenen Orten auf, um es für die Vögel zu gestalten und ihren Lebensraum zu verschönern. Die Dekoelemente sind leider nur sehr wenige, aber mit denen kann man trotzdem die ein oder andere schöne Szenerie erstellen. Hier würde ich mir einfach ein paar mehr Elemente dazu wünschen =) Richtig gut ist auch, dass man gleich zu Beginn des Spiels eine super gute Erklärung und eine Einweisung, durch eine Art Tutorial, bekommt. Das ist für Neulinge perfekt =D Die Größe der Voliere kann man per Mausscrollen oder W/S verändern und auch etwas einstellen. Zusätzlich kann man verschiedene Hintergründe kaufen, die die Szenerie erweitern. Genauso wie Futterspender, automatisches schlüpfen von gekauften Vogeleiern und Futter und Tränke/verschnellern des Schlüpfens etc. Täglich gibt es auch ein paar Quests, die man erledigen kann, für die man gutes Gold bekommt =) Manchmal fliegen die Vögel auch und tragen einen kleinen Goldbeutel bei sich, den man anklicken kann und dadurch Gold bekommt =) Zusätzlich gibt es auch eine Art Codex, wo alle Vögel verzeichnet werden, die man sammeln kann <3 Auch kann man Vögel paaren lassen, sodass neue Eier entstehen. Hierzu benötigt man einfach 2 gleiche Vögel, derselben Art. Was besonders schön ist, dass die Vögel wirklich über den Bildschirm fliegen - das ist echt gut gemacht. Auch setzen sie sich auf die Fenster, Tränken, und andere Dekoelemente wie Bäume und Zäune. Errungenschaften macht man durchs Spielen selber, soweit ich das bisher gesehen habe. Hintergrundmusik und Geräusche sind ausschaltbar, aber passen auch sehr gut zum Ambiente des Spiels. Grafisch finde ich es auch echt schön, da es mal etwas ganz anderes ist =D Von mir gibt es daher eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die Vögel lieben und gerne ein bisschen Ablenkung für nebenbei mögen =D
As an avid idle enjoyer, I can recommend this game to fellow players who also like this genre. It's simple: you hatch eggs, look at cute birbs, and place decorative items, which may also help you out. Breeding is also an option here, and there are three maps to house your birbs after you set them free on your screen. I do think it should have more items available for decoration, which are more habitat-exclusive, but that's just my opinion. Having the option to either have a transparent background or select a few of the existing ones made for a great variety.
I'm usually not big on Idle games but considering this is a bird game I had to pick it up. The game is honestly lovely and you can tell that the people developing it are bird nerds too. All the different birds are various species you could find in real life too. It was real cozy being able to just decorate my little place and watch all the cool birds I hatched fly around. I would have enjoyed a bit more variety in the decoration department, but I didn't mind too much. And well.. it's an idle game, you don't do much, but I had a nice time with it.
One of those "I wish Steam would let me give a neutral review" situations. It's a cute game, but offline play isn't well supported. Earning income from birds requires the game to be open. Birds are always on breeding cooldown when you load in. Weekly quest seems to be permanently disabled. Daily calendar stops working every eighth day. Works on Linux in fullscreen, which is great considering many idlers with desktop integration won't work at all.
This game is good but lacks depth. There is a decent range of birds, but the decorations are extremely limited. By far the biggest issue with the game, for me, is the bird capacity. I have unlocked everything in the shop and I still don't have space to keep 1 of every variant of bird, which is the whole point I was playing for - to collect them! Surprised more people aren't mentioning this. 47 birds with minimum 3 variants each - more than 141 birds to collect , max space to store them? 105. Given the limited decorations and the fact I can't collect them all, I don't see myself opening this again when I get my final achievement, which is a real shame. Having said that, the price reflects these limitations and so I do recommend on that basis. I hope the dev will tweak this, as it seems like a huge error, I would pay more for this game than the asking if these issues were addressed.
7/10: A cosy little idle game where your whole mission is basically… collecting birds. There’s nothing wildly unique here, no standout mechanic. But as an idle game, it still does its job. It’s cute, it’s relaxing, and it’s the kind of game you check in on just to see which new feathered friend showed up. Compared to other idle games, it can feel a bit bare bones~, but it’s still a good, low effort time filler if you’re in the mood for something simple.
123 hours 3770 eggs what works: + buy eggs and click them to hatch, discover birds that accrue money so you can buy more eggs + the economy is on a funny scale + smooth, beautiful and simple design +rainbow and gold versions to chase + cute decorations + hourly and daily quests + really fun celebration pop up when you find a new bird + favorite buttons for birds + sell unlocked birds batch delete option improvements I would love to see develop: + Nicknames for birds + there could be more decoration options, but this has already been addressed a little. However, the new items have yet to show up in my shop. I have checked since the dev posted, so not sure that if was a preview or what + I don't like how some eggs will spontaneously hatch when I'm clicking. I believe the hatch potions are one time use, and I haven't bought one of every level. Every sort of egg will burst on me (sure, slowly and one at a time, but still) if I'm not fast enough to keep clicking and tying up the population (my aviary is all full LOL). I have been managing my birds and I like to watch them hatch. Wish there was a way to toggle this off. + clicking eggs is in the same zone as/shares a plane with furniture and birds, which gets clogged up and jumbled. So, sometimes you select them, just not ideal + I feel like the odds are shaky... I have hatched thousands of eggs, and still never seen a rainbow peacock, though I have 6+ rainbow chickens, turkeys and pheasants. no rainbow kiwi. update: I did get these two birds, and I was so psyched, yay!! + There are enough breeds of birds and enough variants that my menageries are perpetually full. I feel like 35 birds per area is not enough. One cannot collect every breed this way, let alone every breed and it's 4 patterns. I was hoping to have a cool, huge collection, but alas. I have quadrillions of dollars but I have to sell every golden chicken I hatch now, because I already have 4 and I want that rainbow peacock. It sort of steals the joy of a cool hatch to have to sell it to open more eggs. I have all this money and for nothing really at this point. + I wish this wheel of potions didn't pop up on an accidental right click + The stats portion of the game is tracking lots of interesting stuff. I'd love to see a log of eggs I hatched. Also a tally of the breeds/patterns in the codex. + I'd love to see leaderboards for each reported stat + Sometimes I will click on three coin pouches in a row and be like, "oo, I should check my quests!" only to find that yes, I do have a collect coins quest, but it says 0/6 with 30 minutes left. They refresh every hour or so, I noticed, but one at so many minutes is not recently refreshed. + currently, you can sort your collection by name, value and rarity. I wish you could sort by recently hatched, as well. + I wish there was a popup log I could toggle on to list the birds born/hatched. When they hatch they immediately begin walking or flying around, and I would prefer to know who I'm selling, specifically, when I surrender to the sell all unlocked button. Ps. Thanks for that + Bird breeding is pointless after you have some cash, because you'll just buy eggs. Each egg is cheap compared to selling the bird in it, or what the bird inside could earn for you aviary, so once you can just buy batches of eggs you do. Breeding birds just to sell them isn't fun for me, personally. Also, any breed quests are dead, then, too. + Maybe it's greedy, but more areas on the map? :) original review: I like birds and idlers, so this was an easy choice when I found it in the store. It has not disappointed. I look at these lil birds, soaring around, perching on my fairy lights, and it's nice. I like to click click click the eggs to hatch them. I want to collect all the versions of the birds- I especially want a rainbow peacock. I saw the Dev field requests and make changes, so I think that they're a standup human, and they've made something worth your $4. Have the bird collection you deserve, and make silly amounts of money.
一般般的放置游戏。小鸟主题不错,但做出来的动作比较生硬,而且设定也比较奇怪,一开始的小鸟都是要买鸟蛋来孵,但已经有小鸟了就可以直接生,不同种类之间也可以,直接就生下来一只小鸟而不是生蛋,虽然比较方便但也挺诡异。收集全图鉴成就倒是比较友好,只需要全部种类都解锁就可以,不需要全部的金色和彩色小鸟。看在全成就比较容易的份上勉强给个好评。
I have 100%'ed this game. It is cute. I like the variants of the birds, they're not so rare that it feels IMPOSSIBLE to get like some games, but not so common that it feels unspecial. The birds are cute. The quests are doable without stressing yourself out. I didn't want TOO many decorations anyways because I didn't want the bottom of my screen so cluttered.
