Easy to like: puzzling is fairly simple, the boards are very pretty (particularly with the snow effects!), and the ruleset is ironclad. But there are a few minor issues that detract from the experience: no screenshot function, a slow pace, and it is perhaps ... too casual. As a break from more serious puzzlers this is a nice change of pace, but be forewarned (or fore-celebrated?) the game is simple and leaves quite a bit to be desired in the challenge department. For the price it is a pleasant, but very short, time. The big problem, though? Collision issues - where a rock won't pass through a gap that another rock will - ruin entire boards. You end up having to replay, and replay, and restart, and restart to "hope" the game will properly reset. I cannot tell if the stuck rocks are because the solution I am performing is not the proper one, or if it is just random. It should be noted that the rocks appear to be all the same, with no markings indicating that some are bigger than ...

I LOVED this game.........at first. Awesome time killer but I won't recommend based on the collider issue. Perfectly aligned boulders appears to glitch and won't slide down the isles properly. This prevents you from advancing levels. Please fix and then this game will be absolutely addictive.
Super cute puzzle from what I can see with the few minutes I have in it. But the little I did play made me eager for more. I should probably have waited until I have finished the game to write a review, but I need to save this game for when the husband is streaming his games. So for a while I am resisting the temptation of playing it. I will come back to this when I have finished the game for a end of the game opinion. But for the "I really wanna come back and play this" feeling a few minutes in the game gave I felt it deserves a recommendation.
Nice relaxing puzzle game. Environment is pretty, music is relaxing. Wish there was more mechanics other then the patch of snow later on, but still well done.
Winter is coming, rocks must be sliding! Very chill casual puzzle game on a winter background. The graphics is awesome and it require only 50MB disk space, also can run on every PC! Highly recommend!
A fun time killer
Simple, fun puzzle game. like if someone took a minigame from an RPG and turned it into a full game.
Overall I have been enjoyed it. Need to finish still, but have over an hour in. Winter setting is great for this time of year and the music is relaxing. There are some odd times where a boulder can get stuck, but the level is still completable.
This is a nice small little puzzle game that has a few pathing issues, but overall it is a nice way to pass a little time or get a few easy achievements.
Nice relaxing game, some pathing issues that I needed to restart level to try again but only needed to do that on 2 levels. Music is relaxing to listen to while completing the puzzles.
