I really appreciated this since it meant the unnecessary conflicts could only be taken so far (it helped them from straying into the territory of being tedious). The Office Blind Date plays on a lot of tropes, but also does a good job of subverting some of them to keep things interesting. These can also be found on mounds and with charmed animals.I started this one because of the currently-airing Netflix drama adaptation and was quickly sucked in. After the meter reaches its maximum capacity, the character gives a present to the player, usually a new design or recipe. Holding the mouse over each individual shows their likes and dislikes. The other characters have a friendship meter, that gets higher with each task performed, and by receiving pleasant gifts. The player receives quests and tasks by talking with other characters. Money is used to buy necessary items, or more space to the garden and extra slots to the inventory. The player receives money by selling items, or completing tasks. After some seconds, they can be plucked and stored in the inventory to make dishes or floral arrangements. Garden items need to be watered once before growing, while flowers don't. The avatar can also plant assorted vegetables at the garden, and flowers anywhere.
The avatar can wear different pieces of clothing on the head, torso and legs.Ĭharmed animals drop random items, and sometimes eggs that can be hatched at the nursery, where the player can switch pets at will. The accumulated items can be combined indirectly, some of them as ingredients for cooking, other used as part of clothing.
The avatar collects the items laying on the floor, and plucks vegetables and flowers from the ground. The pet evolves and gets better at repeated tasks, increasing its statistics displayed at the top-left corner of the screen. Each action takes a bit of the green energy bar of the pet, and the player has to feed the animal when the bar is yellow. A pet follows closely the avatar at all times, and performs some essential duties like digging mounds for useful items, climbing trees to drop their fruits and use a seduction power to charm other animals. The main objective is to repair the balloon and escape. After creating the avatar, the player starts to interact with the game in a mostly linear fashion, performing tasks and fetch quests for other characters.Ĭompletely mouse-based, the interface allows the character to cook, sew, buy and sell items, with tabs for the inventory, accumulated designs for clothes and the recipe book. Wandering Willows is an adventure game that plays like a simplified and linear version of Animal Crossing, with elements of other games like MySims and Tamagotchi.
