For the most part, Potata: Fairy Flower is a well-made game that has the potential to be a great platformer as the developers have a lot of great ideas as was imminent from its level design. Unfortunately, its myriad of issues bogs it down.

Critic reviews
- 6.0Even the combat is serviceable once you recognize the game's faint tells about landing hits or being hit. However, from the boring puzzles to the bad translation and the performance and graphical issues, there's enough here to drain one's enthusiasm for the title. There are worse platformers out there, but there are also loads of other better platformers to enjoy before spending time with this one.
- While it may not be critically riveting, Potato: Fairy Flower is a game that is simply meant to be played and enjoyed. There is some storytelling, some sense of adventure, some pattern learning and an adversary to overcome. There are also some areas where it could use some polishing, but taken for what it is, this is a fun game.
- This whimsical, family-friendly title manages to join two unlikely game genres together quite well. The genres being platformer and puzzler. Neither of these areas is exceedingly challenging but just difficult enough to make you feel good about yourself once you get to the next save point. While the story is not a gripping tale of suspense the platforming moments will have you feeling some Super Mario nostalgia.
- You’ve played these kinds of levels before, only there are far more imaginative levels in other titles. It’s an overly cutesie game that you might think would be fun for the kids to play, but the platforming is far more demanding than you would think. If you have nothing else to play and you like challenging platformers with an overly sacchrine look, then maybe check out Potata: Fairy Flower. Just know there are far more rewarding games out there.
- 7.0If these minor technical blips are ironed out, we have no qualms in recommending Potata: Fairy Flower. It’s an odd name for a game, to be sure, but if you’re a fan of puzzle platformers and enjoy the magical fantasy tone on display here, you’ll have a great time over the course of its 10-hour runtime, and we’re more than looking forward to seeing an eventual sequel.
