About this game

The Gardens Between is a single-player adventure-puzzle game about time, memory and friendship.

Best friends Arina and Frendt fall into a series of vibrant, dreamlike island gardens peppered with everyday objects from their childhood. Together they embark on an emotional journey that examines the significance of their friendship: the memories they’ve built, what must be let go, and what should never be left behind.

Lost in a mysterious realm where cause and effect are malleable, the friends find that time flows in all directions. Manipulate time to solve puzzles and reach the apex of each isle. Follow the duo as they unpack and explore their significant moments spent together, lighting up constellations and illuminating threads of a bittersweet narrative.

It's ok. The gameplay is not exactly challenging. And I played for 10 mins without seeing any establishment or progression of a story or plot. But my biggest grievance is, if I choose to turn off vibrations in the settings, I expect ALL vibrations to be turned off. As someone with sensory challenges, I was not impressed that some vibrations remained even after turning that feature off.

It's a great game that uses time to help you complete your journey but I had to cut short and delete it because after about 10 or 12 lvls there is a very short lvl that's just impossible to complete and I don't give up easy there's soup tins or cans of pop or whatever and there's not enough to get both of you across no matter what I did I failed.

This is what I call a "game as an experience" - those looking for the most difficult gameplay/puzzles will unlikely be satisfied, but they miss the mark when looking at a game like this in that lens. I won't judge others, but to me, anyone can create a puzzle. Few can create a genuine experience through a medium such as video games - especially that translate well on mobile. It's a beautiful, sincere, thoughtful game with charming art/animation style, soundtrack, and intuitive gameplay. 5/5 👍
