Whimside is a cute creature collector sent my way by Toadzillart, which I am always grateful for. The concept is quite simple and straightforward. It sits at the bottom of your screen while you go about your day; in fact, I am playing it right now as I type this. Every so often, creatures will wander past, and you click on them to capture them. You can then breed them to make new creatures with various physical attributes to unlock new areas to visit, which allows you to continue on your quest to unlock more areas.

This doesn’t mean the game is easy; it takes time and a bit of luck to breed the right creature to unlock the next area. You also get a small area you can decorate and keep creatures that will spawn gems to spend in the store to buy new things and upgrades to make your quest easier. This can be things like more room for eggs, auto collectors for gems, or just new decorations.

This is honestly a very niche title; it won’t appeal to everyone. The collector in me that loves to have something to do while I write or just watch random videos, however, loves having this thing on the bottom of my screen. There is also a setting that lets you minimize it completely and gives you a notification when something you need to be aware of happens. The game is sitting at very positive reviews on Steam, and with very good reason. At less than $6, the game is a steal. 8/10 experience at this price point. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
