An absolute gem! The watercolor art style feels like playing through a cozy children's book. Exploring the woods, meeting forest spirits, and solving puzzles is pure comfort gaming. Highly recommended!

Amazing little game! The atmosphere is sooo relaxing, and everything is just so beautiful. The sounds, the art, every single Tukoni and all the locations make you want to stop and look at every little corner of the game. I think this is a perfect game for people who love just... looking at beautiful things. The colors, the textures, all the tiny details - everything fits together so nicely. And I absolutely love the …

Whimsical, beautiful art with engaging little puzzles that actually feel cozy rather than mind-melting. As a longtime fan of the Tukoni world (I discovered the art on Etsy years ago) I'm honestly mindblown at how well this game takes the magical art style from still images and puts it into motion. It captures the original art from the postcards and stickers and books perfectly, except now it's all moving in an …

Warm and cozy vibes, good puzzles. I wish it was a little bit longer though, the game ended very abruptly and unexpectedly. Kudos to the entire dev team and Oksana Bula, I hope it's not your last collaboration.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game felt like a warm cup of tea on a cold day! ♡ It's a point and click game where you play as Traveller, a forest spirit, exploring the forest, meeting different animals, helping them with some troubles they have and solving puzzles. We get to help them prepare for winter! I honestly really enjoyed the puzzles. At the beginning, it can be a bit confusing, but once you understand what the game wants you to do and look for, you eventually get the hang of it. I also really liked the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I recently started to look after older children books on my thriftstore visits, to use for my scrapbooking addiction. And you know what? Tukoni: Forest Keepers feels like someone took a beautifully illustrated childrens book, painted it with tiny forest creatures, mushrooms, herbal tea and autumn leaves... and then let me crawl inside it for a few hours. Yep! The artwork is so so amazing! And i am still thinking about it. You travel through this wonderfully colored forest and helping everyone…

neutral · AI labelView post →As someone who loves Tukoni: Prologue, I've been looking forward to Tukoni: Forest Keepers, and I'm so happy it doesn't disappoint! Playing this game feels like stepping into a beautifully illustrated fairy tale, filled with adorable woodland creatures, peaceful forests, and that warm, cozy autumn atmosphere. In the game, you play as a little forest spirit called Traveler, who sets off on a journey to help the forest inhabitants prepare for the coming winter. Along the way, you explore…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a beautiful game. Point and click which allows you to use a controller. You drag and drop to combine items and solve little puzzles based on pattern matching and observation as you wander about each of the chapters helping the forest creatures prepare for winter. You get a journal which will help you along and there's a hint system for some puzzles if you're stuck. Obviously designed to sit down with over an afternoon or an evening, maybe two or three hours for a first time play through…

positive · AI labelView post →"Cozy game" can mean so much these days that it has almost lost any meaning. But I'm pretty sure if you made a diagram of all the different games that some people consider "cozy", Tukoni would be in the overlap that everyone agrees on. It's probably also the kind of game that the critics of Cozy Games hate the most, because it's pure escapism into an old-fashioned idyllic fantasy world with no serious conflict or difficult topics whatsoever. Me, I'm in camp "my life is difficult enough, give me…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is such a breath of fresh air. It's beautiful, charming, cozy, relaxing and chill. The art style, characters and puzzles are perfect. I will play this more than once as it's one of my absolute favorite games. I sincerely hope that there will be more like this in the future. One for every season would be lovely.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly, I think this game it pretty clear case, that in our time games still could be with a kindness of soul! I hope, everyone, whom will try this game, immediately appreciate lovely art and cute lore. Fun fact, that lore was created by Ukrainian writer, so, if you like this game, definitely you will like her books. However, this is my recommendation for all people, who want again turn out to be naivety of childhood harmony in their petrified adult bodies.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tukoni: Forest Keepers is a wonderfully gentle puzzle adventure that places atmosphere, kindness, and curiosity ahead of urgency or conflict. Developed by Dream Operator and published by Dream Operator and Gamersky Games, the project was created in collaboration with Ukrainian artist Oksana Bula, whose illustrated Tukoni books provide the foundation for its distinctive woodland universe. The result feels like an interactive storybook, combining hand-drawn environments with an autumnal setting…

neutral · AI labelView post →A ridiculously adorable game. Captures the spirit of autumn beautifully, wonderfully drawn with delightful music and lovely little sound cues too. The quests and puzzles are easy but not repetitive, it's something wholesome you play to relax, not challenge yourself. Have I used enough positive adjectives yet? It's good! Really good!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →🇬🇧 English first | 🇺🇦 Українська нижче 🇺🇦 ⬇️ I absolutely love unusual art styles in games, and this one has earned a special place in my heart. The illustrations are simply wonderful, in my opinion, and the artist, Oksana Bula, is incredibly talented. The game is a point-and-click adventure where you find, click, and combine items, with a few puzzles such as putting together a picture or fitting shapes into a space. All of them were quite easy for me. The story is light, simple, and…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute little game. Worth buying for the art alone. The puzzles aren't that hard, though you might be confused about what to do at first - like with that drawer that you need to pull before brewing tea. It took me a good minute to figure out, but maybe it's because I'm that dumb lol. There are some issues, or rather some things I'd do differently - like allowing you to cycle through inventory with the d-pad, or removing the need to hold a button to confirm you've completed a puzzle (I already…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do you have time for yet another cozy puzzle game? In that case Tukoni is a good choice for a short little adventure. A wordless story about a forest spirt who goes on a journey helping the woodland critters. The puzzles are nothing new, it's mostly inventory fetch quests and a couple where you place various shapes in a grid or swap pieces around to form a picture. You have seen the same puzzles a ton of times before. Where the games truly shines is in the artstyle and the cute and cozy…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tukoni: Forest Keepers is a game I struggle with. While charming in it's presentation, the game never pushes the puzzles through it's gameplay. Before I knew it, the game was already rolling credits before I was even beginning to start settling in. And while I am not usually one to criticize a game's length (I am a fan of the Humongous Entertainment games which aren't know for their length), I found this game just wanting for more. The greatest strength of this game is it's presentation.…

The gameplay of the released game is better than in the free sample, I like that tukony can run and items bag is easier to see. You must try it definetely! It tooks 1-2 hours to play, quite easy but very fun.I spent a lot of time just looking on the landscare and animals because they are cute!
