My review of Gorogoa is now on GameFAQs.
This is the first game I've given full marks to on the site. That's after 47 reviews written over twelve years. It's a lovely piece of work, if rather short (a couple of hours) that is all about helping a character along in their quest to gather fruits for a mythical beast. The controls are very simple - using the mouse to zoom in and out on scenes and dragging scenes on top of other scenes (as some have windows). The characters (who may all be the same person across their life), the pictures and the act of gathering the fruits are interesting in themselves and left me thinking about what the game was saying for some time after.
Thoroughly recommended.
