"...it looks like a fairly deep, personality-rich god game revival. Given that good god games are in woefully short supply these days, we should probably count our blessings here."

"The Mims: Beginning has become the latest indie hopeful to head down the crowd-funding route, popping up on Indiegogo. And it’s a bit of a looker, putting many so-called “AAA” games to shame with a visual style which brings to mind titles as diverse as Spore and Black & White."

"Everything in a game has been crafted in a gorgeous way. From creature to building, you will find the Mims to be one of the best indie games of the year 2014. "

Even receiving this game for free did not draw me to replaying the game... maybe not because it was free.. that can also be, of course. I just did not find it very engaging.
игра отлично подойдет для детей маленького возраста
A charming old-school game!

Muy bueno!!! :)
Supporting and buying this game felt like a scam
Es ist nicht immer leicht, manchmal nervig, aber machbar, wenn man weiß, was man tun soll. Manchmal stellt man sich selbst einfach doof an - oder ist blind. Dass man nicht speichern kann, hat mich am zweiten Tag schockiert - ich musste die Welt komplett wiederholen. Wenn man schlafen gehen will, aber das Level noch fertig machen muss, kann das sehr stressig werden. Aber dafür dauern die Level auch nicht so lange - bis zu einer Stunde. Anfangs muss man sich sowieso ins Level reinfühlen - der erste Versuch klappt selten.
Poor control over the Mims, lack of information in the UI (what's draining all my power?) and some seemingly luck-based objectives ruin the fun.
I should stop writing grumpy reviews when in grumpy. I had fun with it, thx <3
Wow the game is so adorable so far. I mean the system of Smell of island is really unique. And its free! Thank You devs! Definetley will check out You new game!
İlk bakışta, bir iki saatlik boş zamanınızı dolduracak basit bir çizgi film tarzı bağımsız oyun gibi görünüyor. Ancak gerçek bundan çok uzak. Saatlerce süren zorlu ve eğlenceli bir oyun sizi bekliyor ve hikâyeye bolca hafif mizah da eklenmiş. Bu türdeki çoğu oyunla karşılaştırıldığında eksik olan tek alan, birim çeşitliliğidir. Bu oyunda, aralarından seçim yapabileceğiniz yalnızca birkaç tür var. Temel veya genel Mim, uzmanlaşmış olmak yerine, atadığınız çeşitli görevleri yerine getirir. Belki gelecekte daha fazla birim türü eklenecektir, ancak oyun mevcut birim yapısıyla gayet iyi çalışıyor.
