Varenje — бесплатная приключенческая игра с головоломками и мини‑играми в стиле «поиск предметов» и point‑and‑click. По сюжету герой съедает загадочную ягоду и уменьшается до размера насекомого — ему предстоит исследовать миниатюрный мир, собирать малину для бабушкиного варенья и искать способ вернуться к обычным размерам. Доступна на PC, macOS и Linux, поддерживает русский и ещё 11 языков, одиночный режим, включает 26 Steam‑достижений. Плюсы: бесплатная модель распространения; поддержка русского языка; красочная ручная рисовка и уютная визуальная стилистика; сочетание разных жанров: приключение, головоломки, поиск предметов, мини‑игры; помощь в прохождении: мини‑игры дают подсказки, если застрял; подходит для всех возрастов — лёгкая в освоении; низкие системные требования; награды за дизайн уровней и повествование (LVIV GAMEDEV 2019); короткие сессии — удобно играть урывками; атмосферный саундтрек. Минусы: нелинейность сюжета: история местами кажется несвязной; некоторые головоломки могут показаться слишком простыми или, наоборот, затянутыми; повторяемость мини‑игр снижает интерес при долгом прохождении; саундтрек со временем может начать казаться однообразным; ограниченная интерактивность в отдельных локациях; визуальная перегруженность: мелкие предметы сложно найти на детализированных фонах; отсутствие мультиплеера; короткий общий хронометраж — игра проходится за несколько часов. Итог Varenje подойдёт любителям приключений и головоломок (The Tiny Bang Story), поклонникам жанра «поиск предметов» и медитативных игр. Игра привлекает очаровательной графикой, причудливым сюжетом в духе «Алисы в Стране чудес» и разнообразием мини‑игр, но может разочаровать несвязностью истории, однообразием музыки и быстрой завершённостью. Хороший выбор для тех, кто хочет погрузиться в красочный микромир, решать несложные задачи и собирать предметы — особенно если цените визуальную эстетику и ностальгическую атмосферу детских сказок.

Estranho, mas legal kkkkk é um ótimo point-and-click. Valeu a pena jogar.
Hm, quite a cheeky little dev there, offering an experience that requires a DLC purchase to unlock the full game. For me, the art is great. It looks trippy and interesting. 8/10 However, the story is absolutely comical, made even more so by the use of AI voices. I don't know if this is intended or not (probably is), but you got me both liking it and totally hating it somehow lol. It's both a 1/10 and 7/10 for me due to the sheer randomness of it. Gameplay-wise, I got exactly what I expected. It was indeed a lot of clicking. I was quite surprised with the sudden lore drop between levels, though it's not that deep (I would love to see a darker tone actually, considering the situation we are in) I do wish, however, that the puzzles were more challenging, or at least have certain difficulty modes you can choose from, as some of them are incredibly interesting conceptually, but wayyyy too easy in execution. Some were even fail-proof. Overall gameplay for me: 7/10 All in all, I'm kinda torn. If the whole game is free, I'll definitely recommend it. But in the full game's current state, I would still recommend it, but for those with a job. If you're a jobless minor wanting to fork over some money for games, probably don't get this. There are better options out there. With the price and everything in mind, I'll give it a 6.5/10.
loved this game
This is basically a clone of The Tiny Bang Story, another game with identical gameplay - search scenes, find items, use items, play mini-games. Had this been tagged as a HOG I'd never have downloaded it - I LOATHE HOGs, if I wanted to find hidden objects I'd tidy my flat. HOGs are all over the App Store, and I honestly don't know why people like them so much but, then, I can’t see the attraction of merge or match 3 games, either, and they seem to be popular. I found myself playing the hint mini-game WAY TOO MUCH, because things were almost IMPOSSIBLE to find (you need very good eyesight). The mini-games were ridiculously easy; there was a pipe puzzle which locked the pipes into place when you'd got them in the right place; a puzzle where you had three dials with numbers on and had to find eight ways to make 15 - I literally moved one dial and that was that and a puzzle where you had to align coloured segments on six concentric rings - a five-year-old could've solved that. If you're some kind of a masochist - or you're one of those weirdos who enjoy HOGs - you want to play this, and you've a Mac, ignore the "incompatible with Catalina or above" notice - my MacBook Pro is running Sequoia and, obviously, the game ran fine, despite its 2018 release date (Catalina was released in October 2019). As bored and as skint as I am, I won’t be paying £1.43 for the rest of the game. I'm sure I can find far better for under £5 (my current spending limit). I've just finished Resonance and I only paid £1.50 for that on GOG. Frankly, don't bother.
Прикольная игра. Про чела, которого сильно плющит в психлечебнице. Мульт-трип.) Рекомендую. И вообще - почему бы ВНИМАТЕЛЬНО не потыкать ЧЕТЫРЕ ЧАСА курсором МЫШКИ в экран!!!!
Короткое, милое приключение с уютной атмосферой.
I am not a fan of hidden objects games, and this one is close to that, but I live it! I have played at least twice and the challenge level is just right. I only needed the visual guide a couple of times. The graphics are beautiful. I recommend giving this game a try.
Bom jogo!
Игра норм. За исключением того, что без платного длц от неё нет вообще никакого толка.
