Karambola

January 8, 2023 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

Karambola is a short, free point and click/puzzler about a village of sad fruit people. You work through a series of vignettes, helping each little fruit person solve their internal troubles. Puzzles are simple and not too difficult; you're guided to the solutions pretty intuitively.

The art is simplistic but very stylized. I've noticed that many indie games made on shoestring budgets often have these really unique, pleasing art styles. The music, too, is really charming and nice to listen to.

This game kept my attention through the whole story, which took about 40 minutes. Can't ask for much more out of a free game. I played the Itch.io version, but it's available on Steam too,

Verdict: Finished

Part of the Game Library Project

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, history, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
