I bought a PlayStation 3-a system I had consciously avoided to date in favor of the Xbox 360 and the Wii-so that I could download Flower, a little marvel of a game that casts the player as a series of petals floating in the wind.
What's remarkable about Flower is the sensation it creates, from start to finish: simple, almost indescribable, joy."

Great recommendations, I love all the games listed that I've played so far. Going a bit stir-crazy with the constant WFH during this time. Thanks!!

WTMG's Leo Faria: "Flower is a gorgeous, well-crafted and relaxing game, but I have to say, I don’t get the massive love towards it. Its “story”, if you can call it that, is far from deep and thought-provoking as some say it is, its duration is borderline insulting for its asking price, and it just doesn’t motivate you to replay it after you’re done with its half a dozen levels. Sadly, Flower isn’t as meaty as it should be. A fair point in a way, given it’s a game about plants…"
</joke> :D
I was pleasantly surprised by this game. It's a nice diversion. The review is dead on.
Now go enjoy your PS3 grasshopper.
