Late Review

Petit Island is as simple as it is beautiful. A vacation on an island full of activities and secrets in which we can meet our miaubuelo's friends while we relive their childhood days. In the skin of a little kitten, we can travel at will, take pictures, fish and live a colorful vacation while watching our protagonist grow as a feline person.

Petit Island is a nice and quiet experience, perfect to intersperse with some other game. However, there are small things that make it not the rounded experience it could have been. Nevertheless, it is a highly recommendable title for fans of this genre that is so fashionable at the moment.

Petit Island borrows a lot of well-established ideas without doing enough to make any of them feel like its own, and as a result, you’ll come away from the game wishing you could play some of those other games instead.

Petit Island is a wholesome family-friendly game that is wonderful to play. The slow action may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you like to relax and explore, this should be on your radar. It is easy to play and children will need little guidance to enjoy the story.

Petit Island is the pleasant adventure of a loyal granddaughter visiting the land of her grandfather's youth, in a story of memories, family relationships between different generations and welcoming the elderly. The visuals are lovely and the island is well designed, but the sequential chapters and insistent objective markers get in the way of the sense of freedom and discovery that the cozy open world could offer.

Petit Island is an exceptionally cute and super-chill game where the adorable run animation alone makes it worth adding to your collection. 😺

Early Review

Petit Island is a charming story of friendship and hope. There are moments of sadness and joy as Lily ventures around the picturesque islands, with the music balancing the gameplay beautifully. I would have liked Petit Island a lot if not for the software crashes during the final chapter, which spoilt my overall enjoyment. Hopefully, the developers will be able to rectify this quickly.

Early Review

Petit Island is an adorable and cozy experience, and I’m pawsitively sure I’ll find myself booting this game up to work on my collectibles again. There are also a few mysteries around the volcano I’d like to uncover. However, while cozy games and cute kittens go paw-in-paw, there isn’t quite enough here to make it a fancy feast. Nevertheless, this was a fun little tail. Whisker me away to Petit Island, cause I’m feline like a getaway. Okay, that’s all the puns I’ve got.
