Whimside feels like a clever twist on Pokémon and a throwback to old-school desktop pets at the same time. One of the best things Whimside had going for it is its adorable critters. Just look at those puppy dog eyes and fluffy tails and tell me you don’t want to hug these digital critters. Whimside is an idle game meant to run while you’re paying attention to other things so there’s nothing too demanding about progression. Whimside’s demo contains a few grassy plains areas and one seaside region with more aquatic creature parts.
