Words for a bird

I downloaded this with incredibly high expectations. Wow. Bonte releases another game that is fresh in all aspects of design. The music is chill and is something worth listening to. The concept is something that I haven’t seen done often, which is decent implementation of rebus puzzles. The UI is a bit more complex than most Bonte games but that isn’t saying much :D Everything here is enjoyable. My only gripe is that the game is 15 minutes long, with no replay value. God, I hope Bart updates this app to include more poems. I don’t even mind that I was shown ads, because they were well spaced apart and not obnoxious. 9/10.

So the actual game was really creative and imaginative. It took me like, 10 minute to finish, so im kinda upset about that, but other than that, it was such a nice game especially for nowadays. But my favorite part was the message at the end. It really fits in with the current issues we have in the world and its really sweet. I just think it needs to be a lot longer than 10 (less) minutes, but during quarantine, this is an outstanding thing you did.

It’s a pleasant game. Sorry that some folks don’t want an encouraging message, however unobtrusive, or feel it is too short (for a free download). You could play this with children to work on language and spelling skills too. I like Bonte’s simple and clean style, but that doesn’t mean his puzzles are easy. It’s an overused phrase, but he does out-of-the-box thinking. Thank you Bonte!

I’d say on average, people will finish the game in about a half-hour. But length is not the beauty of this game. The real joy lies in hearing the narrator serenade the charming, pink protagonist with short musings and words of encouragement. Figuring out the clever pictograms that go along with this poem is all part of the pleasure. Words for a Bird is a fun, peaceful way to exercise your mind. I can only hope for a sequel.

I definitely enjoyed this game! It took out-of-the-box thinking and creativity to solve the puzzles within the game. However, I am a little disappointed that the gane was only 15 minutes long and suggest to add more puzzles!
