A cute examination of the life of wildlife, through a sort of arcadey stealth lens. Pretty moving too for being what it is and how it's presented.

Cutest game! I think I almost played the game without losing any cubs. then at the last parts I lost a few ): Very heartbreaking at the end, but worth the play. I'm sad that it doesnt have any achievements though.
Игра показывает рутину жизни диких животных через недолгое путешествие выводка барсуков.
Сразу бросается очень интересный стиль графики, а хороший саундтрек только добавляет удовольствия для неспешного прохождения.

Games like this were made to make people cry. The Story is you play as a badger mother trying to make your journey through 5 levels well making sure nothing happens to your babies, this is a great simple to understand game for people to play, but might get sad if they are not good at protecting them, and even if they are, the ending is tear jerking.
Graphics are simply designed, yet have a stylish beautiful tone that makes the limitations look better than expensive graphics. The Gameplay of travelling past predators, rushing water, fire, and creepy sounds that can scare them is a bit stiff to control, so might need a bit of practice to get used to before doing well during life threatening moments. Music is peaceful, and works well when changing to something sinister when a predator is near by. Shelter is a wonderful example of a short beautiful game, that surpasses loads of mediocre expensive ones.

In Shelter, you control a mommy badger leading her baby badgers through the dangers of nature. You play through a variety of scenarios, including forest fires, storms and dangerous nights, and you must protect your cubs from predators and other threats.
It's... okay. Its message will resonate with some people, but I forgot the game not long after finishing it. To its credit, it's also super short, so play it if you want to try something unusual.

Simple, minimal game. Interesting gameplay, interesting style, lasts around an hour. Since it's usually really cheap, I'd say is a must play for its price.
My boyfriend showed me this game and it inspired me so much. I wish it was longer and that It would explore more about how badgers grow up and other stuff they do

Beautiful game, with some very minor nitpicks. Could have dimmed the pause menu so options are more readable. Also the soundtrack is occasionally grating against the player, though it's very clearly communicated through the music when there's a shift in tone.
Not even gonna lie…I cried…a lot
This game has stuck with me for nearly a decade. The graphics are gorgeous, the music is gorgeous, the message is gorgeous, everything is. It made me cry back in the day and it still makes me cry now.
è carinissimo, ho apprezzato tanto i paesaggi ma alla fine non offre molto altro se non per l'appunto un'oretta e passa piuttosto rilassante
No me gustó mucho los colores que se utilizaron, ya que pueden ser molestos y dañinos para la vista. Pero, por otra parte, la experiencia que se vive es encantadora e incluso te puede hacer llorar. La banda sonora y el diseño de escenarios lo hacen ameno a pesar de sus carencias técnicas.
Shelter is a sobering tale about what it means to be a mother. I can't claim to really know what a mother goes through every day, but if it's half as stressful, rewarding, saddening, and glorious as Shelter portrays it to be... I want to say a quick thank you to mothers everywhere. You're doing a wonderful job. And I think I'm going to call my mom real quick, just to tell her I love her. This game is about 75 minutes long. If you're able, I really think playing it with your mother would be a great bonding experience.
Juego minimalista, tanto en su estética como en sus controles, que con poco consigue transmitir mucho. La naturaleza, la calma del campo, la lucha por la supervivencia, enaltecimiento de la figura de la madre, la rueda de la vida. Todo esto en un juego en que su sencillez rezuma amor y belleza. Sublime.
