By MOD狂いのゲーマーブログ May 12

“入り組んだ迷宮の中を探索する2Dパズルプラットフォーマー。細部の至る所に拘ったパズルと、自由度の高い複数ある探索ルートが目玉となっています。登場する全アイテムに複数用途が存在し、終始一貫して説明は無いのでプレイする際は慎重さと洞察力が求められます。攻略情報を調べず手探りでギミックを解きたい人にオススメです。”

Reviews

“The new leader to beat in its sector, we're talking pure ecstasy.”
10/10 – Destructoid

“I'm astonished by it. Astonished by the ease with which it presents its ideas, the joy these ideas bring, and the sheer range of magical stuff it includes, all clipped together in such a satisfying manner. And fittingly, for a game about wells, I am astonished by how deep it all goes.”
10/10 – Eurogamer

“Animal Well redefines the Metroidvania genre”
10/10 – Noisy Pixel
