Smile for Me

An endearing, hilarious, self-contained little adventure game. It has an utterly unique style and tone. Are you sarcastic? Are you essentially optimistic? Do you like puppets? If you said yes to these, this game is for you.

The game world is small, and if you know what you're doing (replay?) you could probably finish the game in 30 minutes. But for a first play the puzzles would be somewhat difficult. I found one of them to be frustratingly difficult, but there is an internal hint system of sorts that can help, and of course there are walkthroughs. Getting the best ending is subtle indeed and it would very likely require a walkthrough.

The soundtrack is delicious. Kudos, too, for an innovative dialog mechanic which was at once cute and annoying. It works.

I really enjoyed this little game!
