60 of 178 · most liked firstFor a point-and-click adventure, you're either going to enjoy this game or you're going to hate it. The initial premise evokes strong deja-vu of Coraline almost to the point of feeling like a blatent ripoff. You play Violett, a goth girl who moves into an old house and finds herself lost in a strange world - complete with a spider antagonist. This is where the simularities end however... as well as the depth of story. Simply put, if you're someone who prefers a heaping dose of narrative and…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sometimes awkward graphics, always convoluted puzzles. If you are interested in spending more time than you should trying to figure out a scene, this point and click is for you. I have some nostalgia (from about 30 years ago) for point and click / puzzle games where I would have to spend hours getting through just a few scenes. This returns those memories though I now lack the patience. Luckily we all have access to guides now, unlike those days. Additional Details Operating…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In my opinion this is not a Point and Click Adventure so if you're looking for that don't buy it, I don't understand why it has that tag. But I recommend it as a Hidden Object and Puzzle game with a very wonky controlled boss fight at the end, (but it's the only scene where there is anything like that and I got the hang of it after a few tries). The puzzles are for the most part logical enough when you get used to the style of thinking for the game, these types of games useally differ in how…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When some decently talented graphical artists without any creative vision, who just watched Coraline, make an Adventure game you get something that's nice to look at. You also get the worst and most tedious gameplay of both the Adventure and the Hidden Objects Game genre. Now I just feel Violett-ed.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game has 4-5 bugs, a lot of people who play it have encountered that will not let you proceed further. Said bugs have beem reported in bug discussion by many with no answer from the devs for more than a year now. It's a pitty because otherwise it is a cute game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Violett is a delightful point and click game, though partially also a hidden object game, containing engaging puzzles, colorful and creative landscapes, and a memorable soundtrack. It's a bit of a blend between Coraline and Alice in Wonderland; you fall into this world of intelligent, sophisticated insects and tiny mammals, and are working towards freeing them from tyranny, and yourself from being tinier then a mouse. What I liked best about this game was easily the setting and the audio. The…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a very pretty game, no arguments there, but there are a lot of issues that unfortunately bog it down, and nice art is not enough to save it. Firstly, the technical bugs. After a while of playing the game starts to hang. Either it flat out doesn't react to you clicking on things, or it does the action but the cursor then remains in the "wait" stage so you're unable to click on anything else. While both of these can be resolved by exiting the game completely and reloading, I shouldn't…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Developer dropped support. There's gamebreaking bugs which prevent players from finishing the game. These will never get fixed. The game starts off well, story is interesting, puzzles are tricky but not impossible to do even without gameguides. It's just a shame the developer decided to give up.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very Cool Game! 10/10!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Beautiful visual and OKish audio. But that's the only positive thing i can say about this game. As many reviwer said, the puzzle design isn't intuitive. Not only you frequently use hint, the hint only helpful sometimes. There's not much story/narrative either, so it's not easy to know where to go or what exactly you should do. It's not terrible game, but i can't recommend this game unless you're big fan of point-and-click enthusiast and being very patient. In case you're not familiar with…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →4/10 roses are red, violets are blue - but no one's got a clue Seriously, I love point & click / puzzle games. Played all the old classics like Indiana Jones, Shadowgate, Kings Quest etc and even liked the occasional hidden object game. But while most of these classic games where difficult, Violett is just confusing. The lack of a coherent story, quest or goal doesn't help trying to figure out the puzzles which seem completely random - and even if you know what to do, the controls aren't your…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I totally loved this game its amazing ... never thought that i would enjoy it that much ... great job .... i recommend it to all gamers to try it out ... i have uploaded multiple videos of this game on my youtube channel Check out my YouTube channel (Hovac One) & the Gameplay here is my Playlist enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjlzzNVV8FM&list=PL6SSkFqkg_mVRh1JA1KplGLk9VFEyiKiQ&index=7
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Enjoyed the game ♥ The game is not YES or NO, it's OK. The lack of voice over to drive explanation and story quite tangible. It's not the worst game, but I understand why some Pipka (aka the people) did not like it. Machinarium is a game example where things done well.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Mac version, The game has great graphics, but why crashed three time within 5 mins. It's unacceotable. Please, fix the bug and refine your game, I will consider to change my mind and give the game another chance.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is beautiful. The way 3d rendered and hand drawn mix together is something to be noted. The plot is almost missing, and what is there I think is lost in translation to english. There are many gems to this game. The diary notes are really great, and the idea of adding hidden object finding to an "adventure" game should be done more. The bad things about this game are there right from the beginning. There isn't a tutorial, and by the time you figure out what you should be doing,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its fun-ish, but so far half the puzzles make no sense to me. Like the logic is gone and its just a guess until it works type of thing. I like hard puzzles, but you still have to understand the concept or strategy on how to play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've never rage-quitted point 'n' click game before. And now I did because for every puzzle in the first hour of playing I had to use the walkthrough. It's all about random clicking and trying out different solutions (or alt-tabbing to the browser again and again) because the game tells you nothing and the solutions to "puzzles" are totally accidental and make no sense. For example: to leave the room you need to catch the fly in the bottle. Why? No idea. To open the door to another place you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A well designed game makes a player feel like an idiot when you look at hints. Like, seriously, how did I miss that??? This game, not so much. I was looking at hints to figure out what to do and even then the reason why something worked or did't and why was not clear.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have tried playing through this game three times. Even with the walk through on the third time, I can't finish it. There are things the walk through says to do that simply do not exist for me. I Very frustrating waste of time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Based on the mixed reviews, this is either a great or terrible game. I decided to take the plunge at a whopping dollar, and I'm glad I did. Is this game perfect? Nope. Is it enjoyable? Hell yes. I'm sad it's over. I highly recommend if it's on sale. To start with, this is a point and click hidden object game. The point and click aspect isn't traditional, though. Sometimes you have to tap multiples times or hold and drag. It does prompt you in the lower right when dragging is required. If you…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Kind of Machinarium: no dialogue and lots of brain teasing puzzles in different areas. Also a lot of collectibles, too much even for me. At the beginning story was clear: you move to new house with your family and suddenly shrink into insect world (oh wait why? confusing already) Anyway then you supposedly want to grow back and get home; I hoped there would be story in between but no, just solving puzzles because they are there blocking you. Nice and surreal adventure but the main feeling…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ENG (PL - poniżej) One of the most underestimated games. Good gameplay, very good music, and very nice graphics. With quite good story brings very special climate. There are two things I do not like: last fight and some weird puzzles. Total score: 7/10. PL Jedna z bardziej niedocenianych gier. Dobra grywalność, bardzo dobra muzyka i miła dla oka grafika, świetnie pasujące do historii. Sama historia nienajgorsza. Wszystko razem buduje specyficzny klimat tej gry. Dwie rzeczy, które mi nie…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Forever Entertainment S. A. - Oh yeah, that's a weird developer - makes games, that on Store are brilliant, but inside actual game - it's too frustrating. Our protagonist doesn't speak... literally, if she can't do anything, she just do some mumbling, which is annoying. There are some orbs to find - that's totally bad aspect of the game, in my opinion... Storyline - was probably made to create base atmosphere - because it's grotesque world... There is a lot of clicking... from going from place…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Violett Remastered is a game that I recommend because: - is a method to banish boredom - it is point & click - it has adventure - it has female protagonist - it has trading cards - it is indie Enjoy!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i love point and click games but this is trash
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Super buggy, the ending is incredibly confusing on how to actually defeat the end boss and several tutorials people are asking the same thing. Cute game but an absolute disaster in game play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Point-and-click-adventure with some hidden object gameplay (pearl collecting). The puzzles are mostly logical and you won't need the built-in hint system, it takes a good while to unlock anyways. Not sure if its time-based or just requires tons of clueless tinkering with objects. The graphis are meh but I think the game is a decade old so, maybe it is not that bad. Soundtrack and theme are playful and classical, almost mythological, which is common for Eastern European developers. Big downside…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ever played a game that drove you crazy and you are just stubborn enough to fight through the bugs / crashes / miss clicks and youtube videos just to finish it? well just play this and you will.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a mobile ported screen tapping adventure puzzle game where you guide some emo kid around surreal landscapes. While there's potential for this kind of game, the mobile port is badly done. There's game breaking bugs that prevent the game from being completed. The graphics aren't as good as they could have been, but compromises were made to cater to the mobile peasants the game was aimed at. I'm not one to say that PC gamers should accept these compromises. Once more we see greedy…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has almost zero direction! The puzzles are difficult and not in the the fun way. I am all about solving puzzles but there is literally no direction. The only hints given are for obvious bits. Would NOT recommend! Also it is basically a Coraline rip off.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not quite sure what it is, but just No. I like point and click games, but this feels off in some way. Not much of a tutorial, or a nudge in the right direction when stuck at the same place for quite a while. Decent-ish art, would have preferred it to be a 2D game, the art images of the main character look way better than the actual game 3D models. Also, the underlying story of the game might be slightly grim, but no way is the gameplay as grim as the music makes the game out to be. A slightly…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is my second time TRYING to play this game. The first time, I got frustrated at the lack of good clues, even with the hints. A lot of puzzle solving is either from looking at hints, or just clicking randomly. The story itself isn't very clear at first either. That was a LONG time ago. I tried again last night, and it wasn't as bad as I remember. But when I went back to my save, it was glitched. The whole screen is blue. And, to be honest, I didn't enjoy it enough to start all over again.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While this game is beautifully drawn and has an enchanting soundtrack, I can’t recommend it as it falls into the pitfalls that many point and click games do. First most: The inability to skip animations and to auto move to the next open room (usually done by double clicking). Second most: A lack of input from the game in what to do next. Don’t get me wrong, I like a puzzle, I like trying to figure things out! But when I’m not sure what I can or can’t click on, I end up wildly clicking…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Graphics were good, but I'll never get to see most of them as I couldn't get past the 2nd screen, even with the hints. Looks like it was made for a tabet / touch screen where you can drag things around. It also seems to be lacking any overall purpose.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Update 12/2020: Still unplayable past the Airplane scene. If you ring the yellow bell before moving the ladder, the player is stuck and cannot progress. Original: Point and click. I did enjoy it last time I played, but now is buggy as... Pathing isn't always working. Sometimes I have to backtrack out of a room and back or all the way to the beginning area of a room before it will let me walk somewhere. Worst two I can think of now are the Kitchen (have to return to the platform sometimes to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Entire game in a nut shell-click something and nothing happens, do it again and nothing happens. Click everything on the screen, nothing. Go back to clicking said thing, does something.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is ok game with nice graphics and music. But there is not much plot and it is easy not to understand what you need to do so solving puzzles takes some time. Many puzzles are solved just on luck. If I could give neutral I would because this is not a very good point and click game. I'm giving thumb down because prize is too high for what game gives you.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Had the potential to be a good point n click ,but instead is a rather confused puzzle game . Graphics/artwork is well done pretty much. Can we have a updated version to give it a story mode? no? This is a neutral .

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I want to like this game but my friends and I had too many moments where we were frustrated and confused to recommend it. The art is very nice, very unique. The story is interesting, from what we could piece together. Some of the puzzles were fun and creative. Other puzzles required a lot of random trial and error to see what did what. There was a lot of backtracking especially near the end. I don't feel the interface was adjusted properly when coming over from mobile since a few areas…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice prologue... But idk what next story is, no narrative nor voice given along levels. Puzzle is very hard for me, but I like how this challenging it is. Even level hub, it has puzzle but too complicated. It takes unnecessary time for changing levels. even if you already know correct the path. Puzzle get harder with inconsistent story concept: telekinetic ability. There are exceptions to use it in unknown reason. Nice narrative would help.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i dont like this game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game lacks in all they are trying to sell you in the trailer, poor graphics and very hard to play. I do not recommend this game, there are other games out there which are much better and fun to play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →interesting puzzle with beautiful drawings, except that I cannot proceed due to the bugs.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Maybe I am the wrong person who bought this game, but I thought it had potential. Maybe it does not. Lost interest very early in with the weird game play and challenges.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is so confusing, even with a walkthorugh. I love the point and click genre and I appreciate the effort put into this game but it's not so fun.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Violett is a nice game with issues. I had a couple of crashes and many lock-ups while playing on Win10, which leave you with no response to mouse or other input. Killing it and restarting allowed me to continue where I left off in each case because the authors had the good sense to save progress early, thankfully, but it still shouldn't happen. There are also bugs which prevented one achievement from dropping when it should have and another from being achievable at all. It also desperately…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Violett was the first [url=https://forums.doublefine.com/topic/8992-game-club-faq/]Double Fine Game Club game of 2015, and the last new game that I'd play as part of that community (at least before we went on hiatus). While the game has some significant room for improvement with regards to feedback on player actions (which arguably enhances the sense of feeling alone in an alien environment), its general difficulty was something I found enjoyable, and a bit of a breath of fresh air after many…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Horrible performance, impassable bugs. Game manages to stutter on 1080 Ti. I click some object, the clock cursor appears and never goes, and I can not do anything. If I quit and restart and reload the game, it crushes.

The game is rather frustrating, but it was enjoyable enough, though I'd suggest buying it on sale The story was simple with a whimsical charm, and it was really just an okay game, not great, just okay The main thing I'd genuinely love to see changed is the ending the ending fight with the queen is frustrating and annoying, I…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tasks makes little to nonsense. Visuals, music and minimalistic dialogues are specifically made for kids and for me they felt lame. Glad i haven't spent a single cent for it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I regret using the coupon to buy this buggy "game" Even ignoring the crashes or missing items, the entire game consists of you just clicking obvious items that you'll probably need, figuring out for the most part easy puzzles or finding an item that doesn't seem to be where it should be. One of the worse point and click games on the market, which in general is an extremely boring genre to begin with. Absolute garbage, I hope people read these before thinking it's a good deal with the coupon.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The art in this game is gorgeous, however, some of the puzzles are a bit nonsensical and there's a bit too much running back and forth through completed maps for my taste. Still, I would recommend it if you enjoy point and click puzzle games. This one is very frustrating at times but wholly satisfying once you figure them out. ;
