Remembered
I think I played a Beta version of this years ago. I have always remembered it and wanted to play it again as I love the peaceful atmosphere and the magical/mystical ambiance of the story and artistry. I would love to play more games like this.
Still waiting on updates or next chapters
Has this game been abandoned? It's beautiful and unique, but very short. No updates in 2 years. Must be abandoned. Too bad.
Great game
This is a great game. But short. Wish there were more levels.
Good game but can you finish it before making it available???
See title
Beautiful game
I love it and would give 5 stars, but the last puzzle doesn't work in the paid full version, the code to unlock the door with the symbols on the rocks, it doesn't respond, so I cant finish the game. Also no translations for the Chinese in the game. Lovely work, though.
Savoring every moment of this game
Its so goddamn good
Music won’t work!!!
I really want to play this game but I can’t get the music to work. Downloaded and re-downloaded and still no music? What am I missing here? Can’t find any info about others having this issue
I really want a part 2!
This games was really fun, I got so sad when it said it ended because of how short it was, I like the game so much , I really hope you guys make a second one!!!!😖😃😆😊🥺✨
Game
How can play? I don't understand ;-;
Stops working?
It’s a very fun game, but when I get to the flower field part the game completely stops working. It doesn’t crash it just freezes. Then after I close the app completely the music continues to play in the background for about 30 seconds before stopping. When I open the app again it takes me all the way back to the kite scene and then the process repeats. I’m not sure what’s up?
Totally enjoyable
I loved playing this game! It’s so relaxing, but with puzzles and mazes. I only wish the game was not so short. I could stay immersed in this game for days, weeks! So, Developers, when will you have more games like The Butterfly’s Dream? Your game is unique and wonderful! Please, make more 💕💕💕
......有點垃圾
一來就到了棋盤那房間....解了棋盤就開了密室...進了去又沒路出來？？？？？？又不能重新開始，是要我刪掉重裝嗎
Great but short!
Such a beautiful game! But it is incredibly short. I loved the puzzles and art. The story seems interesting, however it’s it nearly long enough to matter. There’s about 15(?) puzzles and ends right what you think the story will start. I still recommend playing, but don’t get invested.
Not a finished game
It’s really upsetting to start investing in a game only to find that there is no resolution and barely any storyline. It should tell you at the beginning. I finished this game in less than an hour. Not really worth it.
I found a bug problem
So I played the game and I really enjoyed it, but when I wanted to play the game again... I restarted it but every time I clicked the “new game” button it went back to the “menu” again and I couldn’t play the game anymore, I hope this bug would get fixed soon, but overall a really good game, Thank you!
Awesome awesome game!
I was deeply intrigued by this when when it is partially released a few years ago, and I am so glad that I recalled the game at the right time, when it is accomplished! The art is absolutely stunning and cute, and there are many intricate design in the story plot. The puzzle is of moderate difficulty, designed with traditional Chinese culture elements and hints. I also love that it is chill with no elements like jump scare or horror, which is too common in puzzle games. Overall, it is a very rare find and I am very very happy I played through the whole game. Kudos! 美术和音乐非常非常赞！看得出来花了很多心思！小游戏环节在美术和形式上有很多小巧思，提示也非常有用！整体故事情节不算紧张，是很让人放松的感觉，很美。这个水平的中国风解谜不多，作为解谜游戏爱好者很开心终于玩到这个了！强推！
Frustrated
I downloaded this game as I thought it would be great but it wasn’t. I started playing it and only got to the study an was unable to play it any further as it let you nowhere to go, not even back to where it started. I tried tapping the screen on my iPad but nothing happened just nowhere to go. What good is a game you can’t progress on and no story line to tell you what happens next and where you have to go on to. Even the circle board with the circles, black and white which I guess is supposed to be a game doesn’t tell you what to do so frustrating when it is impossible to play and supposed to be a new game but it isn’t as I downloaded it three months ago but with the same results. That’s why you got one star and the one Star Wars for the graphics. Please fix this game and please make it a pleasure to play or you’ll lose players. One more thing,you don’t give much of what the game is about, just one and a half lines on how great the game is which I recommend to anyone who wants to download this game forget it. Don’t waste your time downloading this game just to have the same problem as I had. J
Beautiful and fun
I do wish there were translations for the in game writings though.
It’s soundless
I can’t hear any music while playing game although I turn on the volume of my phone and make it to maximum
Relaxing?
Doesn’t really feel like “relaxing” cause it’s kind of frustrating, but i’ll probably change my review later.
Beautiful and peaceful
Nice to fall asleep to
Plante
Très joli graphismes et énigmes stimulantes, dommage que le jeu plante lorsque l'on réussit à lire l'histoire d'amour en haut de la montagne ! Reglez ce problème au plus vite, votre jeu est merveilleux :)
Not to be missed!
A dreamy, complex --visual, tactile and auditive- puzzle adventure that keeps unfolding slowly, revealing new corners of the gorgeous illustrations as one follows one of two sisters looking for her other sister. The promise for your successful walk is that your entire past will be revealed. Superb, and revarding. Clues are provided to help you through difficult spots. One of the best puzzles I have ever played.
Very short
This has great potential, but it’s only two levels.
Không biết cách chơi
Help me, không biết chơi thế nào luôn!
I love it!!
It’s so gorgeous and fun!! Absolutely beautiful and peaceful story and fairly easy to play! I only wish they would add more!
問問
第一關怎麼放百棋子啊，好難，要抓狂了
Beautifully done, but too short
I would love to see Part 2 soon! Strong UI and absolutely delightful gameplay. Never had a game with this level of art and mystery to it. Interactive touches are surprising and lovely. For sure I am hooked waiting for the next part - so many loose threads and over so quickly!

ภาพสวยมาก น่าเล่นมาก แอบยากนิดหน่อย
Good but...
This is a gorgeous game and great in many ways...BUT I have serious reservations about some of the puzzles. First, it is hard to decipher what the game is asking you to do (the goal isn’t clear). Second, some of the solutions appear glitchy. I would download this game but be forewarned you may become frustrated.
To be continued?!!
It finished right when you repair the boat. Will their be a chapter 3????? Please absolutely loved this game and I don't play games.
I thought...
I thought I liked the game, until the microphone part came in...
Pas mal
J'ai aimé le jeu mais il n'y a pas assez de casse-tête et trop de bla-bla.
To be continued
After investing all the time in this game it ends in a cliff hanger.... fun until it just ended. Not sure if it’s worth starting if it just ends.
Best puzzle game ever
Beautiful! The soundtrack and images are so calming that I’m uncharacteristically in no rush to solve the puzzles, though the rewards are gorgeous. (More volume controls would be nice so I could turn down footstep sounds, but got used to them eventually.) stunning game.
Stuck
I was really enjoying this lovely game up until I had to speak into the mic to progress .... it’s not working and I feal really stupid yelling ‘ahhhhh’ at my phone. Do we really need a voice action to progress? It doesn’t enhance the game whatsoever and it’s just annoying - not to mention the fact that I cannot progress any further... Damn!
Could this game be any shorter?
Disappointed in the length of the game. Controls frustrating. Wouldn’t download again.
Short but fun
It was a very fun game, made me have to use my brain and pay attention on certain parts. I wish the story was a little longer, I hope there’s a part 2 coming up or similar games. Also the music and art style is very beautiful and I enjoyed it
Beautiful, difficult, much too short
Definitely worth playing!
Good job... I think
I’m still stuck on the mountain side because nothing makes sense. I’ve restarted a few times, I know what the hint is talking about, and yet I still can’t figure out that one puzzle. I like the music and everything about this game except for how incredibly difficult some of the puzzles are.
Superb
Intelligent, fun, and universally appealing. Obvious that this grew from their passion and not simply a desire to make money. That being said, I can’t help but wish that they would secure a patron or SOMETHING to expedite the release of the next chapter!
Like the design of this game but can’t pass Aaaah
Really like the traditional Chinese paining like game background very much, but have been shouting at this big stone without progress for a day. Please help
