"Booooooo," my daughter and I scream in unison whenever that sneaky, troublemaking raccoon pops up on my Switch screen. Later, we'll learn a valuable lesson about how Rocky the raccoon is actually a nice bloke who's simply misunderstood, trying to find his way in the world and make sense of it all. But in the here and now he's spoiling our fun by being a mischievous wee sod, moving key items out of reach and pulling up bridges to block our path.
My daughter and I are playing A Tiny Sticker Tale, a lighthearted endeavor that indie developer Ogre Pixel bills as a "cozy adventure about changing the world, using the power of stickers!" In practice, this sees you filling the teeny tiny boots of Flynn the donkey, exploring a tile-based map chock-full of friendly anthropomorphic townsfolk, and carrying out a steady string of fetch quests and favors, completing puzzles and meeting specific criteria to progress its light-touch narrative.
