Ooblets

Really fun game,
but i wish for some more content in it

i just love it

I think this may be the first review ive ever posted, but game is adorable, and weird, and the writing can be very witty and funny and the little oobz are all great. There's enough variety in the oobz to pick your favourites. Its very chill, no time limits on anything, a bunch of friends to make and things to collect. I am a 33 year old man but I have had so much enjoyment just wandering about, chatting with the people and playing dance dance pokemon battles against the strangest of walking veggies. 10/10 cannot recommend enough. Shrumbo is my spirit fungi

Ooblets? more like OobLIT!

eettttt

Love the game, but it seems like the devs abandoned it spring of last year. Hope that's not true though.

I love this game. It's cute and kitschy, you can get a lot of hours out of it (I'm at 50 hours and expect to put in another 20-30 before getting bored), and there's a good variety of things to do (I've finished the main quest line and still have plenty left to do)! It's a great combo of mini-Stardew and cute-Pokemon as the devs promised.

--- SMALL SPOILER BELOW ---
The only feedback I have for devs is that the ~late-game selling location~ is annoying. It uses so much energy, takes a long time, and doesn't get much profit. Also, it's irritating that certain items can ONLY be sold here and that there's nowhere convenient to check the selling day theme (a mail reminder or inventory-menu notice would be helpful).
I'm still having a great time with the rest of the game, so it's by no means hurts the overall experience. Just, it's annoying enough that I ignore it entirely.

Extremely cute and stylish hybrid of a couple game styles. It's not as deep of a farming/town sim as the big ones, it's not as deep of a creature collector as dedicated ones, but it hits enough of the fun points of both alongside so much style and personality that it is an easy recommend to anyone who enjoys both genres. There's no romance options or anything like that but the cast of characters feel like a nice group of friends by the end of the main story. Also extremely family friendly. If you look at the game and think it might be for you, it is.

Absolutely charming, completely adorable, and full of joy. This game fulfills the desire to have cute little creatures follow you around, as well as giving the important farming, fishing, and friending goals of a true cozy game. Definitely reminds me of the energy of Pikmin in a lot of ways.

Ooblets isn't like any other game you've ever played. Totally unique and creative.

This is possibly one of the greatest spins on a creature collector ever! this game is so fun and filled with love and pure whimsy! If you like games like pokemon, stardew valley, animal crossing, etc, you'll love this game too!!!!!

Although I really enjoy the game, I dislike how the devs talk to the community. Plus they didnt communicate that the game was done (or not done) and the ooblets community is left confused.

First of all my review is based only on what I have played.

Ooblet is a very cozy and fun creature collection game with farming and life sim aspects.

Pros:
Lots of cute Ooblets to learn new moves and try diff combos of dance teams
Graphics are very cute
Music is well done and enjoyable ]
It has a fun story and I actully wanted to progress and finish the story.
Glimys are fun to look for (like shiny hunting)
You get to run your own shop which is great for earning money.
When you talk to NPCs they actully have good lines throughout building friendships with them I hardly had repeat lines.

Cons:
In the start the days can feel very long as you have to nap your way to night time to actully go to bed
In the start it does feel very slow paced
There is no way to craft or make furtlizer you either spend wishes or fish for. just wish you could craft it
Though their is a good amount of NPCs in Badgertown I wish we could befriend people in other places as well.


Overall I really enjoyed it and the cons are more personal cons. Im glad i played it myself to form my own thoughts on the game. I really believe this is a good cozy game and very excited to see if they make a Ooblets 2!

Language feels like trying way too hard. I can't get past all the nonsense ("...and junk").

Cute game, especially the voices/sounds. I find myself dancing to the music a lot of the time.

Camby for Taffy

its my new fav game i love clomper

The perfect game for those times when you're too overstimulated, tired, or depressed to play anything else. Groovy music, cute af art style, easy mechanics, decoration & personalisation, no time limits on anything. Lots more to it, and some areas could certainly have been developed upon further, but absolutely worth playing.

you get to dance with cool lil fellas

YES.

I love it, I love collecting lads

This scratched my neurodivergent brain so well

A hidden gem! I love this game SO much, the vibes are impeccable.
The game play is super satisfying and definitely has the potential to be your next instant obsession!!

A very fun bubbly game with a very fun,cute,smart game with a very nice animation style.

It's an okay game. it's cute and quirky, there's plenty to collect, it's just not the most compelling game.

I think a lot of the problem is just the pacing. The card game isn't quite snappy enough, but also the grind for everything feels a little much. I've basically found myself wasting time so I can get more planklets the next day. It's such a bottleneck that I spend more time doing nothing than anything interesting.

I'll still recommend it. It's still interesting and it's unique enough.

i love my silly little guys!!!!! they all perform child labour for me on my silly little farm :3

When I bought this game, I absolutely did not expect it to be an adorable creature capture game that I'd put over 14 hrs into! I figured it'd be a short cozy indie game but I was so wrong! Let's go over the pros and cons!

PROS:
- This game has some longevity to it! Something that I definitely didn't expect! The game has an open world that you can wander around and multiple themed towns that you can explore! I'm over 14 hrs in currently and I've only finished one town.
- The adorable design is very well done! The bright colors and energetic vibe is what attracted me and keeps me interested! The ooblets are all so quirky and unique in their own little way which makes me excited to capture more!
- There's plenty to do that will keep you invested, from farming to cooking, and furnishing and decorating your home! There are also quests you can do to unlock areas and other parts of the town.
- The combat is very fun! I love the concept of a card deck system combined with a dance battle!
- The seasonal gacha machines are a fun way to earn seasonal cosmetics, accessories and decor without having to spend any real currency!

CONS
- The combat system is a blast, however I feel like it needs a little more polish. The concept is great but the card deck system could use some more instructions. The game could really use a more fleshed out dance battle tutorial to explain the use of Hype and Beats as you're sort of left in the dark when it comes to the dance battles.
- There's is a huge lack of balance when it comes to the card deck system. You cannot personalize your deck or see which cards you have in your hand aside from what your ooblets contribute from their level.
- Higher level dance battles feel rushed. If the battle goes on past a certain unknown amount of time, battle will end within two final turns, rewarding whoever has the most points. This is a bit of a turnoff as it significantly takes away the appeal of any sort of challenge present.
- There's a huge power gap between ooblets which is my biggest gripe. Some ooblets like Fripp and Petula are massively OP right out the gate and can add 14-20 points after 4 turns, Lickzers can straight up stop the use of fluster for the duration of the battle, Bristlebuds can spam fluster cards without any sort of cool down, which pretty much renders your deck useless if you don't have an ooblet capable of removing fluster. I feel like if cards like these should really be earned at higher levels instead of given right out the game. The cards that stop certain abilities should be limited to turns, similar to the stun ability or at the very least, there should be something to counter those cards.
- Landscaping your yard is nearly impossible. Logs, weeds and twigs constantly clutter my yard to the point of obstructing my path. Getting rid of them consumes a massive amount of energy and the ooblets don't clean up much.
- The reward system is very lacking when it comes to clearing stages and quests. Dance battles for unlocking parts of the map don't result in anything. No seeds, no gummies, nothing. The same can be said about quests, nothing is usually given in reward which is very disappointing, especially for fetch quests. Everything in the game is very expensive and crops don't sell for much so it's difficult to farm currency, at least in the earlier stages of the game. On top of that, you're limited on how many ooblets you can have on both your property and your person before you're told to either expand your home (which costs a whopping 2000 gummies) or the coop for ooblets, so I feel like players should be rewarded for their deeds so that we can have an easier time affording upgrades that we need.
- Recipies are hard to obtain as the game doesn't explain where to get ingredients for them. Sometimes the recipes are given, sometimes you find them at random. These recipes are needed to battle with certain ooblets so I feel like knowing how to acquire these recipes is very important.
-The characters, while fun, don't have much depth to them. I'd love to be able to know more about them and their backstories, especially Taffy considering she's banned from all clubs.

Don't let my list of cons take away from your decision to buy this game however, it's well worth the money, it just needs a tad bit of polish in the area of combat! I'll be reviewing in my channel soon to give a more in depth review!

Super cute game! I love the art style, the gaming mechanic, and the ooblets so much!! I've been trying to find a game that's super cute and ticks all the boxes of creature collecting, battling (by dance lol ), helping the town plus gaining friendships and the overall story is so cute and amazing!!! Keep up the great work! I'm so happy I got this game it's worth it!! <3 ^_^

This is one of the most adorable and hilarious games I have played. The art style is magnificent and the game play is so unique and enjoyable. It's an all around great time with lots to discover and many funky characters to interact with. Couldn't recommend enough!!

an adorable fun-filled game with a rich storyline, it's super cosy and you can choose what u wanna do for the day!!! one of the few games that i am able to come back to whenever life is hectic, and still enjoy, very easy to jump back in!

this game is so much fun

i might of got addicted.

I love this game, not really any complaints, it was made to be a feel good easy to complete game and it accomplishes that perfectly.

Some notes for the developers, since i cant find a better way to report problems.
-when you hit save and quit in an area where you cant save, it still quits the game
-Itd be nice to modify your base deck

Other than that, great and well balanced game, maybe even too easy

This game is super silly and well made!! It's very entertaining with it's dialogue and keeps you busy with many quests/tasks!

This game deserves the hype. It is hilarious and heartwarming, and very addictive! Each character is unique, and the dialogue is very funny (laughed out loud for 10 straight seconds at “meal deal,” and I couldn’t even tell you why…). It is truly weird without being annoying, and the “moral” is meaningful without being preachy.

My only complaint would be inventory management. I wanted to have everything I owned with me at all times, in case an ooblet or a friend or a construction demanded it, and that wasn’t really possible.

this is a master piece. It has changed my life and I love it

i love

this game is amazing

This is a game I like to play and I don't like most games.

I had over a hundred hours logged on Epic Game store and have loved watching this game be fine tuned into what it is, I love this game a lot and adore my pink clicky claws named Pickle Snib- 10/10 have and will probably play again

Unless you dislike card based combat, this is a great creature-capture game combined with farming sim elements in a super cozy town. Oob clearly has its problems, but you can stick around in Badgetown as long as you like, with no real time sensitive quests. It's quirky, surprising and full of things for collector types. You have 6 towns to scurry to and fro, with one of them packed with fun minigames and a satisfying conclusion.

The polish shows a few cracks, causing a few collision glitches on occasion, and I've had the occasional crash, but it's certainly not lacking in charm. The only downside (at least for some) might be it's not apolitical. Without spoiling anything, it's pro-community and somewhat anti-bureaucracy, which might be a turn off. But if that doesn't make you want to run for the hills, you should give this a try! It's one of my favorite games I beat this year, along with Spiritfarer (which has somewhat similar farming and community building aspects, but wants you to cry instead of laughing).

i love clickyclaws

Genuinely my all time fave game

very calming and peaceful to play, there's no pressure for timing and if you're like me where you start another thing before finishing something (like tasks) that's the only time its ever gotten "overwhelming" but not actually

Very adorable game, best for when you are wanting that collecting vibes and with farming then this game is the best to play. Ive been playing nonstop because of how much you can do but also since it still have bugs and needs some fixing but overall its super addicting and something to chill to.

love these lil guys, they're so cute and they can dance like nobody's business.
I want more content to release, it's so fun I love it and was sad to 100% everything cuz now I'm done :'(

i like itand im having fun :-)

Possibly the closest in spirit to Animal Crossing I’ve come across. Very unique and lovable world that is a delight to get lost in. The pace is excellent and the gameplay is wildly fun while simultaneously relaxing.

good very gen z

:) 👍

Pokemon + stardew valley + animal crossing, also dance battles.

I've liked Ooblets more than I expected to. I started playing it on Switch, and kind of fell out of it about 1/3 through the game. When it went on sale on Steam most recently, I picked it up here and started again, and I had just as much fun making it all the way through the game this time. There are certain traits of this game that I've found I don't love in other games - all the kind of stupid, made up words for one - but Ooblets manages to bring its vision together in such a joyful and comprehensive way that it feels natural. It's a very silly game, the Ooblets are very cute, and the dance battles are a ton of fun.

I had a hard time getting a feel for the economy in this game, but I didn't really end up needing to like you do in many other farming sim games. The dance battles are the core of the gameplay, whether they're to recruit new Ooblets or for progression, and the economy comes second to that. I'm sure there are ways to minmax this game, but I found running a small farm for short-term crop needs and spending most of my time exploring was a lot more fun.

The achievements are mostly unmissable as you progress, with a few you'll need to go out of your way to get. The 'hardest' ones were the two for selling 50 and 100 crafted items, and I got those both at the end by just using up everything stocked in my fridge over the course of the game and selling those meals in one go. The 30 hours of playtime was me beating the story of the game and cleaning up remaining achievements, but if I'd wanted to catch every Ooblet, develop a fuller farm, decorate my dream home, or become max level friends with everyone, I could easily squeeze another 60+ hours out of this game. I'm not sure that I'll immediately dive back into it after finishing it, but I'm leaving it installed in case I do want to play more, which I don't usually do with games I fully complete. Ooblets is charming and fun in a way that made me laugh often, and I enjoyed the entire time I spent with it.
