Animal Well is one of those rare games that effortlessly balances between offering intriguing depths and rewarding curious prodding. No other puzzle metroidvania comes close; Animal Well truly impresses.

Pixel Art offers nostalgic yet retro aesthetics, while each room delivers something different. Without combat, enemies generally serve as puzzles or obstacles you must avoid; when they do threaten your health meter, however, the experience feels earned and earned itself.
