What is Reddit's opinion of Samorost?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Here's the demo for it from Amanita's website (also the makers of Machinarium). And here's the full first one, which is a free browser game at Amanita's website too.

Charming zen-like simple point&click games. I love them but they're not for everyone... give them a try though, it's free.

Oh man, I just saw these were the same guys who made Flow ?? I haven't played Journey, but maybe um... maybe this will make you feel better in the mean-time? [link]

Or the original Flow maybe: [link]

Samorost is a free game you can play online, so you can judge that yourself. Samorost 2 is a bit longer, and similar to what this trailer is showing, but Samorost 3 looks better from the trailer.

honestly? all of them! funny enough, i felt like botanicula was their weakest game, something about it just didnt really do it for me. but if you loved that game then you will definitely love the others

samorost 1 is free on their website. that will help you get a good idea of the incredibly unique art style

samorost 2 has the first chapter for free on their website too. even better (and longer) than the first game

machinarium was also an amazing game with a beautiful art style to it. i believe they released that one on PC, iOS, and i think ps4? (or maybe it was ps3). the game was even longer than the other two and if i recall, the puzzles were a bit more difficult. but ultimately i loved it.

ive been playing samorost 3 for a few hours now and its fantastic.

If OP wants to save money, the original Samorost I think is still available to play for free online (which is by the same people who did Machinarium) - it'd be a good way to gauge interest. (And Samorost 2 has some levels up for free as well.)

There is nothing better for me than discovering a great new webcomic that has been around for years. This should take care of a least a few hours. Truly beautiful comic. Charles Christopher

• Here's a cool video

• And last but certainly not least Samarost

I hope your grandfather pulls through.

Samoros 3 and all other games by Amanita Design like Machinarium and Botanicula are true works of art, make sure to give them a try. Samorost 1 is free if you want to get an idea of what to expect.

Well Samorost 1 is free, short and playable in a browser so see for yourself! http://amanita-design.net/samorost-1/

It's wonderful, of course - but back when this came out, IE5/6 was still a thing and there was nothing nearly as good looking or well-designed in a flash game at the time. I think it's still lovely to play through thanks to the strong art direction.

The first half of Samorost 2 is also free on their website but if you liked the first, it's totally worth buying to play the whole thing.

I really miss King's Quest and the like. Check out Amanita Design, makers of , Samorost2 & Machinarium. Samorost is free to play online and others can be down loaded from their site.

The Sub-Machine series games should keep you busy for a bit.

When finished, Daymare Town should also entertain.

Artistic stuff, point-and-click for the most part, but creepy and fun.

I will also mention Samarost, another really beautiful, fun and silly game.

This is the stuff I entertained myself with before Steam started porting to Mac.

Why not try some shorter games for a while? I hadn't gotten stuck into a long, engrossing RPG for a couple of years and now I am absolutely loving Mass Effect way too much. Have a go of Braid, World of Goo, Super Meat Boy, Machinarium or Samorost/Samorost 2, Within a Deep Forest, Flower or other such games which wisely sacrifice quantity for quality and keep things constantly fresh and unrepetitive.

I guess it's only relevant to your last sentence but that's my best solution to having a lack of time/shorter attention span for games!

Is it the Samorost series?

Samorost 2 and Samorost 3 are on Steam.

For the unaware: Samorost 1 and is an old flash games that you can play on Amanita's site right here, and 2 also has a demo on the same site.

Samorost. It's hard to describe, really artsy point and click puzzle game.

The developer has made a handful of amazing browser games that are similar- Amanita Design.

Super, super late reply, but I would suggest anything by amanita design. One of their games is playable online for free here. It's a different genre than the things you mentioned, but hopefully you'll like it.

Dunno if it counts as obscure anymore since it was on one of the Humble Indie Bundles, but Samorost & sequel always make me really happy. I think the first is free and #2 costs $5. They're just short flash games, not longer console games, might not be the type of thing you were thinking of but I feel like they're worth checking out.

Machinarium -beautiful art, puzzles, simple interface, no time limit...she'll love it.

And here's links to the free flash versions of Amanita Design's(They made Machinarium) 1st 2 games

Samorost 1

Samorost 2

Also 2nd that Portal rec

I really like some offerings from Pastel Games

Daymare Town series are in a creepy, pencil art style. Submachine 0 to 6 are weird science fiction-y puzzle games that get cooler as they go. The last one reminds me of the movie Cube.

Also check out Samarost and Samarost2 both free games by Amanita games, makers of Machinarium.

The above are all flash, point & click games, but definitely not standard fare. Samarost is almost more like interactive art,, but worth a look.
