Finished the "first tier" on SteamDeck after 9 hours.

Apparently the game has 3 tiers of secrets/things to collect, and I'm halfway through the second one (the first one giving you the credits).

Animal Well is a phenomenal experience, with an eerie and mysterious atmosphere, satisfying exploration and puzzle solving.

I especially loved how the "boss fights" are really tense puzzles instead of actual fighting, as there is no real combat in the game.

I probably won't spend the time it would take to complete the 2nd and 3rd tiers of the game, and I'm OK with that. What I got is already a super memorable and rewarding experience.
