AGS Panel review for this game:
The AGS Review Panel has left a comment about this game: Another snack-sized adventure by Ben, this one taking on a more conventional puzzle solving format. While Fadi's adventure is pretty straightforward, the visuals and humor will keep you interested until the end.

Posted by bicilotti on 2009-12-28 at 02:36 (IP logged): In one word: heartwarming. Posted by proximity on 2009-10-22 at 19:54 (IP logged): Very short game which makes you demand more and more. If there was no blink puzzle it would be the shortiest game ever :) Nice graphics especially characters and their animations. Thanks for this cute game Posted by AndyfromVA on 2009-10-13 at 10:56 (IP logged): Another cute game from Ben Chandler. Good graphics, animation, witty (and funny) dialogue. Overall a very entertaining experience. Posted by Mr Matti on 2009-10-12 at 00:49 (IP logged): Once again a nice but short game by Ben. Funny, polished and with some neat animations.. Posted by Andy on 2009-10-06 at 19:24 (IP logged): Another fun filled game by this author. The puzzles are quite rudimentary but the visual quality and pixel animation really boost this game to a good ole three cup rating. Posted by paolo on 2009-10-05 at 13:39 (IP logged): Yaaaaaay - another cute game from Ben :) Yep, a little bit short, but solid and suitable for all ages. Posted by CosmoQueen on 2009-10-04 at 21:40 (IP logged): Graphics, animations, dialog were superb! Interesting ending though. I hope that means it'll lead to a sequel. Ben I salute you! You've done it again!!! :-) Posted by xenophon on 2009-10-04 at 18:15 (IP logged): Loved it! Only thing I could fault it on - I wish it was longer as I would have loved to kept playing. Make more like this! Posted by jkohen on 2009-10-03 at 21:27 (IP logged): Another perfectly polished game by Ben304. This is the kind of game one does not describe by mentioning great graphics, nice plot and atmospheric music. This game brings a world to life. It is pure story telling that will inspire your thoughts and stimulate your imagination. It will leave you hungry for more and a bit nostalgic for a world you will be able to smell, see and feel, but only for a few minutes. If the game seems a bit too edgy, it's because the author doesn't follow the classics. This this is the kind of game the classics are based on. Posted by Ewianes on 2009-10-02 at 09:15 (IP logged): a FUNNY, atmospheric game. and compared to heed you had the possibility to solve puzzles. As always good controls. At all great stuff, though it is a one-room game. Good on you! Alex from Germany Posted by Marion on 2009-10-01 at 09:37 (IP logged): Once again, a very cute little game by Ben ! Posted by Eglamore Crownswhip on 2009-09-29 at 20:45 (IP logged): Ah, how this adventure of our young Fadi reminds me of the olden days, when bravery was stealing eucalyptus leaves from your neighbour's garden and heroic deeds could be done whilst fetching a haversack o'rye from the mill. I, too, was one of these little adventurers whom nobody believed and who were never taken as seriously as they should've been - and look at me now! I am the most well-known venturer of the universe, praised for esprit and refinement of manners as well as exquisite use of heavy firepower to blast exotic evildoers back to their homeplanets, indeed! But, listen to all that rambling! Nostalgia and yearning aside, fellows, here you find a marvellous game for adventurers of any age, 'tis certain! Posted by Helme on 2009-09-29 at 20:00 (IP logged): A very lovely game! But the puzzles are quite easy and it's very short. It almost feels like an intro for a longer game. Posted by Leon on 2009-09-29 at 17:04 (IP logged): If you have a few minutes to spare, this is a must play with a lot of people to meet, each with their own unique character but all very funny. Fairly easy puzzles. A perfect one to encourage newbie adventurers. Posted by Arj0n on 2009-09-29 at 16:41 (IP logged): Awesome! Artistic backgrounds, sprites, animations. Humorous lines & matching music. All in all just gorgeous. The puzzles are quite easy/not too difficult. Perfect sweet little game! Posted by Crimson Wizard on 2009-09-29 at 14:53 (IP logged): A lovely short game with beautiful backgrounds and detailed character animations. Enjoyed it much. I must however admit that puzzles were way too easy, except maybe one which involved... uh... how should I say this avoiding making spoilers?.. "(slightly) advanced game mechanics" :). In overall game looks more like a artistic experiment, or proving ground for artist's works. Or, maybe, a tutorial on how to play adventure games... but a GOOD one!
