- Open reviewFor anyone who spent childhood summers in the countryside, this offers a truly unique experience. Maybe it’s just the longing for that sense of adventure, buried under the years — but this game captures the essence of a summer vacation perfectly. I haven’t played the previous games, so I can’t compare, but judged on its own, the sheer number of activities and the sense of exploration were at their peak for me. Among games that commit to delivering a single, specific experience, this one really stands out. Everything you’d associate with being a kid during summer break is here. And maybe that’s why, as the days passed and I neared the end, I truly felt that bittersweet ache — that this was a vacation that would now live on as a warm memory. I played it day by day and... It made my nose sting and left a smile on my face.
