Pear Quest (Sokpop) Review
Posted: 4 months ago.
Author: Andrea Walney, @GeekDadGamer and Jo Robertson.
Overview
Pear Quest is a point-and-click adventure where you are a rabbit on a strange island covered in trees. There's a large pear you need to reach by completing quests and puzzles for the various inhabitants. It's similar to other island adventures, but here the tiny pixel design gives the game a unique feel, particular with the sheer number of quests you can take on.
Play proceeds like other adventure games - you explore the island, interact with the locals, take on quests and solve puzzles. As you do, you progress towards the sought after pear. The games leans into its tiny visuals so that they actually become part of the challenge. You spend as much time working out what is going on as you do actually completing the challenges. It's a game of interpretation as well as adventuring.
The result is a cute and engaging adventure, that feels unusual because of its visuals.

Accessibility
Our Pear Quest Accessibility Report documents 11 accessibility features:
Make sure you are viewing this on the largest resolution this game gives you, full screen and 2x zoom, or the text will be impossible to read. The text is very, very small even at the maximum resolution, so this may not be suitable for everyone. It is also very easy to lose your character and collectable objects amongst the tiny pixels, so you have to be extra careful where you go and where you drop things. Interact with characters who will send you on quests to find things such as keys to unlock more areas of the island, or engage you in conversation.
Although the graphics are very small, the game has a high contrast, being in black and white only. However, there is sometimes very little distinction between objects, especially when they pass in front of each other.
