I love it. that's it. it's nice and visually pleasing and it helps you embrace the concept of existence and yourself. it's a shame the free version only lets you play for a short while, but fair dos, I think it's absolutely worth it (even though in app purchases aren't available in my country rn). I also loved loved loved that it had a nonbinary gender option in Russian - that's often overlooked when a game/app is translated into a more gendered language

I cannot believe I didn't review this the first time I played it... I don't remember how long ago it was but it left an incredibly lasting impact. This is a strikingly beautiful game. -spoilers incoming- Frankly, it broke me a bit. I didn't see the ending coming and I was crushed. I chose to keep the memories alive and that instance of the game still exists on my last phone, untouched like a tomb. I still miss my first bird but I look forward to the journey with my next.

It's okay I guess. I wish it had continued past the end point, hatching and having more story rather than just a reset. Also would have been nice to have triggers that try and respond negatively to absurd silly things instead of the bird loving anything and everything you say. Since it doesn't continue past egg really, it's a one and done type game it looks like.
