Critic Reviews for Dorfromantik
Dorfromantik is sunshine on the screen, with a puzzling heart that will keep you busy for days.
Dorfromantik balances its strategic and cozy elements well, and it's easy to fall into a serene trance of dropping tiles. Pulling the camera back to reveal the full scope of my landscape always feels like a satisfying reward for my subtle, hard work, much like stepping back to admire a finished painting. While it's not the sort of puzzle game I feel compelled to play more than a session or two a day, I always appreciate the improved mood with which it leaves me.
Impressive efforts with a few noticeable problems holding them back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.
Essentially, no matter what you’re looking to get out of Dorfromantik, you should be able to find it thanks to the assorted game modes on offer. The approachability of its tile placement and point system mixed with relaxing visuals pull you in and invite you to kick up your feet and rest for a while.
Part town-planning exercise, part board game, this thoughtful debut gives plenty of scope for strategy and idealism
Dorfromantik may not have a ton of staying power, but it offers up a satisfying and chill puzzle experience that we feel is worthwhile in the end. If you’re on the lookout for a game that doesn’t expect much of you and fits well for those late-night sessions just before bed, we’d recommend you give this one a look if it sounds interesting.
Also a must on the Switch for all those who want to escape from everyday life and immerse themselves in a picturesque puzzle world.
