nice
Stunning!!!
One of the most beautiful mobile games ever. Gameplay is uhm well,.....but its so pretty.
Based on interviews with real people living in Africa explaining their relationship to water, is interesting. The game is sort of a platformer, where you're forced to manage the player character Bontu's energy as she treks to get some water for her village.
Haven't played it yet but I trust it's a good shot😂🔥✌️
Really nice way to reading books Need more improvement
