Is it still worth playing?

Jenova Chen and Nicholas Clark designed this game for the PlayStation 3, released in February 2009 on the PlayStation Network. There are six main levels and one credits level, each represented by a flower in a pot on an apartment windowsill, and choosing one takes the player into that flower's dream. Inside, the player controls the wind as it blows a single petal through the air. Tilting the PlayStation 3 controller changes the pitch and roll of the petal, and pressing any button blows the wind harder, which moves the petal faster. The camera usually follows just behind the petal. Approaching groups and lines of flowers makes them bloom and adds a new petal to the trail. Guiding a petal through a field is still a way to spend an afternoon.
