This is a very short atmospherical Indie game in which the player is able to aid and observe the journey of what I call the apple alien baby up the old tree.

The game is point&click; with rather little interaction, no dialogue and about 10-15 minutes of playtime.

Despite the simplistic interaction with the game, the game is extremely nice to play. One is easily able to immerse oneself into the game due to the very nice and soothingly calm soundtrack.

I recommend this game for anyone who would like to just sit back and relax for a couple of minutes.

My Playthrough, for anyone who is interested, can be found here: Youtube.com

Très bonne animation, trop sombre (visuellement) à mon goût et surtout trop court.

This is a magic, meditative game.

I think the game itself was very neat and darkly cutesy. It's definitely not an experience that requires any reflexes or quick thinking, but as much as I appreciate slower-paced games to stimulate the brain sometimes I felt that "The Old Tree" sometimes dragged out certain moments.

The path is linear and takes the protagonist from puzzle to puzzle and that is all fine by me. I did realise however that for me, the majority of gameplay was waiting for the little alien creature to get from Point A to point B. For me to justify that I would atleast like to see more diverse scenery, something pretty to look at while waiting. The puzzles themselves were neatly designed and worked perfectly for what "The Old Tree" is: A short, single playthrough brain teaser with an atmospheric setting.
