Sounds of Nature

Absolutely not recommended. It's not a game.

Relatively new game. decent environmental sounds. no jump-scares, but would be nice if you had a flashlight or something cause the cabin places are way too dark. The places aren't all huge, but the graphics are nice. It's basically everything thing the title is; small exploration areas with decent sounds. Even when it's not on sale, it's still under $10 so you're not getting robbed or anything. it's relaxing, but not necessarily a sandbox like it's tags say it is.

As is, i would recommend the game if you just want a game where you just bum around and enjoy the sound of nature. it's a very small niche kind of game, but it scratches an itch that not even Minecraft could scratch. I'm hoping that they continue adding more things, ways to interact with the world (Sitting, opening doors, flashlights), or even adding larger maps.

I got this game on a deep sale (50% off). To be fair, I like it, graphics are good, sound is good, its a keeper for $3.99.

However. It really only has 10 locations, but the dev mixed it up with things like cabin in the rain, same cabin in a thunder storm, same cabin in the day, etc. So, I'm not willing to say its 20 different locations, for its half that. The other head scratcher is why the game needs access to my network. I denied the access on the first startup of the game, for it made no sense to me. I could just be over paranoid with the game request. Perhaps someone else can shed some light on that game request. I would think all updates would go through steam, and not handled by the game itself.
