Islanders....

It's been a while since I've played Islanders(blogged on here, here, here and to a lesser extent but still relevant here). It's still a chill, relaxing experience. Games that get long-term TLC updates are always of more interest to me. Games that stay installed. Especially when those updates are not monetization based. I noticed yesterday that Islanders got such an update that also included seasonal changes. While not a compulsory way to play the game I wanted to see what was added to make it 'seasonal'.

I wasn't disappointed. It's a minimalist cut game as is but the seasonal additions really added to the cute factor. The lights, presents, 'candy canes' are all just that, seasonal cute. Sometimes it's the little things that make a game or a return to a game more enjoyable. It was pleasant to be back.
