Avis des joueurs Steam
[i]Herdling[/i] est un jeu correct, sans plus. Je n'ai pas été transcendé par cette transhumance dont l'unique horizon se résume à rallier les cimes, sans le moindre élément narratif venant enrichir le propos. Le concept de l'excursion est plaisant...

🏰 Introducing PinKeep 🏰 A brand new game from Okomotive
Okomotive is doing something new! 😱PinKeep is a pinball deckbuilding roguelite where you use your flippers and a deck of cards to defend your Kneblin keep against attacking Knights. Part of our team has been fleshing out this project for well over a year now, in parallel to Herdling. As of today, you can find the game on Steam and add it to your wishlist! 👉 Wishlist PinKeep on Steam 👈We’re gearing up to release a free Demo for the game shortly after the Winter holidays, so stay tuned for a playable version really soon! We realize that PinKeep is something quite different from what our fans and players have grown to expect from us. This change of pace is the result of valuing our team members’ creativity and trusting the process, even if that process is something novel. PinKeep is not indicative of a complete shift in studio direction though! Rest assured that after the recent release of Herdling, the rest of our team is working hard on new concepts, prototypes and drafts for our next emotional journey. With that, we wish you all Happy Holidays and soon a very happy New Year! With greetings from Zurich, Switzerland, the Okomotive Team

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« It's a heartwarming joy to get to know each of the calicorns I found on my journey to the mountain, and it's because of the loving bonds I'd formed with each of them that its central gameplay mechanic works so well, both in my hands and in my heart. »
« In having a minimalist approach to its storytelling and game mechanics, Herdling is able to bring closer attention to its overarching message about hardship and found families within nomadic, unhoused groups. It does an excellent job at balancing these themes in a digestible way, leaving you room to sit back and really take in what it’s trying to say. That it also manages to be an interesting survival game is just the cherry on top. »
« A short game that is absolutely brilliant. »
« Short, sweet, and utterly charming, Herdling's evocative beauty more than makes up for its superficial gameplay. »
« A bitesize indie adventure guiding a herd of fictional creatures back to their home atop a mountain, Herdling has charm in spades, and a wonderful minimal design that prioritises experience over everything. »
« Herdling continues Okamotive's reputation for unorthodox titles that resonate in unique ways. Desolate and survival-driven, yet warm and freeing, it's an adventure unlike any other despite the occasional hiccups. »
« Herdling is a fairly linear game that wraps up in about six hours. Despite its relatively short playtime, Herdling does a decent job at capturing the unspoken bond that forms between a herder and their animals, while showcasing the many facets that come with the role. Although Herdling could certainly stand to be longer, artificial length may not necessarily improve the game. As much as I would have liked more time with my loyal companions, the length is appropriate for the type of story Herdling is trying to tell, and its brevity doesn’t diminish the journey it offers. This is an adventure that will tug at your heartstrings, while leaving you with a handful of bittersweet memories and screenshots to hold on to. If you are willing to spend an afternoon opening yourself to a moving story told through guiding gestures and the steady rumble of hooves, it would behoove you to give Herdling a go. »
« Herdling is a great experience for any players who enjoyed the two Far titles created by Okomotive. When the Calicorns stampede across a lush meadow, plowing through flowers, with the mountains close, as the music enhances immersion, the game manages to create some unique and emotional moments. Guiding the herd around through puzzles is also pretty fun. But I never cared about the Calicorns, even as I made sure that they were healthy, and the title’s limited narrative means it’s hard to engage with its mechanics. Herdling has a solid core idea and creates impressive moments, but struggles to make the moment-to-moment gameplay engaging. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Очень приятная коротенькая игрушка, помогла расслабиться. Захотелось поиграть во что то похожее, только более детальный симулятор пастуха »
« What an enjoyable journey, this is a very calm relaxing game of saving lost yak type animals & herding them back to their forest in a journey through cities, fields & mountains. The challenge/gameplay is avoiding obstacles, dodging dangerous bird owls, puzzle solving, cleaning & petting the animals to keep them happy & navigating them back home. I would love to see more games like this unique journey in the future. »
« A really fun game. Being able to tame animals and have them in herds was very enjoyable. The controls are very easy to use, the scenery is beautiful, and it's perfect for a weekend afternoon. Plus, it's on Game Pass, which is fantastic. A very good game. »
« Cute, relaxing experience. Despite its very simple mechanics and short length, it’s an original adventure where you grow tenderly attached to the herd you lead. »
« Eu e meus manos caleidoscópios dando um role, ouvindo boa música e vivendo a vida »
« Гарна маленька гра, мені сподобався саундтрек, візуальна частина, геймплей для мене був незвичний. Рекомендую спробувати. Інколи були невеликі проблеми з керуванням, окрім цього гра дуже добре зроблена »
« A short but memorable journey. It has some performance issues on PS5 that a game with this kind of lo-fi graphics shouldn't, and the "stealth" sections were frustrating and ill-conceived, but overall, a worthwhile experience. »
« Good Game, Reminds Me A Little Bit Altos Odyssey For Mobile Phones !!! Such A Masterpiece »
