A Little to the Left

This game features some enjoyable puzzles that I would play again. If you buy this game, just know that if you want to 100% the game (get all achievements) you have to buy a couple of DLCs.

First and foremost I may have recommend this game because I don't like giving negative reviews unless VERY deserving, but I stand by my ground that I would not recommend it 100% and would only recommend it depending on your priorities. I've been always eyeing on A Little To The Left, and I finally decided to buy it on sale (50% discount) I would say for the base game, the original price isn't worth it. Please do buy it at half the price or lower even if possible. This is especially true when the DLCs of this game are the same price as the original game (everything discounted) when they are just DLCs which is ridiculous imo. Buying this game with the DLCs is albeit too expensive for me, even when all of them are discounted. I only play this game for the coziness and to perfect achieve the game, and it's not like open world cozy games that have so much content that a higher price would be deserving. Be warned though that are are some puzzles that really needs to be precised to be triggered, some puzzles made me had to sit on longer than I should and because of that, it loses its essence of coziness and just becomes downright frustrating. There isn't there much to say, as it's just for the sake of coziness, there isn't really a story to it either. If you're willing or wouldn't mind to spend a few more bucks to perfect achieve the game because you will need the DLCs for it then I would recommend it. But if you just want to try something cozy, I think buying the game for half of it's price and not buying the DLCs at all is what I heavily recommend instead.

ive seen this game be played online a bunch and always loved how satisfying it was to solve the puzzles. Went through all levels without any hints and so its not an overly difficult game. Super relaxing and satisfying. Would definitely recommend.

I would prefer to give this a neutral rating but as that isn't an option, I'm not recommending it. I found it much too fiddly - in order for the game to recognize that you have the solution the parts need to be in JUST in the right spot. I spent forever on one puzzle, even uncovering the entire hint, only to find that I did have the solution, but the game wasn't registering it as such. Even then it took quite a while for me to get all the pieces to finally "snap" into place so I could move on. And yes, it does snap pieces into place once you get them close enough to exactly where the game wants it. It is good in some ways, but I just found it frustrating. I do think it would be worse if they had a larger tolerance for where a piece can be before it snaps, since then it would be too easy to stumble on the solution without having the chance to actually solve it, but ultimately it was not something I wanted to deal with.

cute relaxing game, the sound are nice and the cats are super cute

i play lots of puzzle games and enjoy them/consider myself skilled at them. some of these puzzles just didn't make sense to me, and even the hints didn't help explain it. the way things don't lock into place can be annoying when you can't figure out the solution, because it becomes impossible to be precise. if you're looking for a cozy, comfortable game (maybe something like unpacking) - this is not that game

The art style is nice, however this is supposed to be a cozy game, why am I feeling annoyed playing it? The game is so picky, like you can't just organize it the way you want (even if it properly fits), they want it in their own way or the game won't register. Also, for any achievement hunters out there, this game will be difficult to get all achievements as you need to buy their DLCs and log in for a consecutive number of days straight to do those achievements (daily tidys is what they're called). The cat in the game is cute but its soooo annoying when he comes in to your screen and mess everything up. Could not find much enjoyment playing this, and the puzzles got repetitive fast, all that was changed was the theme.

Great game. Kitty. Good credits, even the credits are fun. Money well spent.

I have a big issue with this game, and it's that it's exactly the opposite of what it's advertised as. It's supposed to be a cosy, fun, satisfying puzzle game. Instead, it's annoyingly tedious and honestly feels like a chore to play because of it. I love puzzles, but some of this game's solutions are so far outside the box that the logic required to find the solutions just doesn't exist, at least not for me. There's also the fact that every puzzle requires the items to slot into place, and those places are almost always invisible. This made me get stuck on a puzzle I had the correct answer to for 5 minutes, because I couldn't find where I had to slot these postcards on a blank background to make a big picture. There's also the cat that comes in at the end or in the middle of puzzles, demolishing your hard work and making you lose the satisfaction you got from beating the level, though this complaint might be more of a pet peeve(haha, get it?). Overall, I can't recommend this game for what it is, because it clearly thinks it's something other than what it actually is. It's more stressful than cosy, which is disappointing considering that I thought it was going to be relaxing.

one of my favorite games, i personally love to replay it even when i know every solution because it's so satisfying, brain go brrrr:)

Fun af, really gets you thinking. Can finish the game in one day if you so please. but very relaxing to play!

Good past-time activity, with the main issue being the fact that the levels fluctuate between busywork, to minor puzzles, to figuring out what obscure idea the devs want from you. Not sure I'll revisit the DLC one day, right now I'm done with it - definitely not interested in remembering to launch this every day for minor daily puzzles.

This game helped me through a period of grief, it is simple, relaxing and satisfying. The daily puzzles mean I have a little treat waiting for me every morning!

My autistic wife loves playing this game it helps her so much with her problems. I very much recommend this!!! - husband

A Little to the Left offers a quietly satisfying puzzle experience perfect for fans of organisation and calming gameplay. It was developed by Max Inferno and published by Secret Mode in November 2022. With charming visuals, gentle audio, daily content, and DLC, it's great for short sessions and extended play. It excels when you enjoy some brain-teasing logic packaged in a calming, cosy shell—but be prepared: some levels require exact solutions, which may frustrate players seeking complete freedom. If you love cats, this game is definitely for you. In some levels, you have to organise and clean up the mess that your favourite little fur ball has left. The art style is not bold but somewhat calming with its pastel colours and no harsh outlines. The background music in this game is rather calming. Pros: Cosy game with a unique art style The puzzles vary in difficulty very detail-oriented Most PCs will allow you to play this game Cons: Some achievements are somewhat "grindy" Conclusion: I enjoyed playing this game, but the achievements were rather tedious. I would highly recommend this game to any cosy puzzle lover. 9/10

Cute and cozy little puzzle game, with some easy achievements and some more difficult and time-consuming ones. You do need the DLCs to 100% the game, this will not be a quick and easy 100% unlock game. The puzzles vary from quite easy requiring little thought to some that require quite a good bit of thinking, the majority being somewhere in the middle. I have enjoyed what I have played, but I am unlikely to ever put the effort needed into trying to 100% the game. But it is still a nice quiet break from daily stresses and it is well suited to shorter playing sessions for those who do not have the time to sit and play a game for 5 hours without stopping. The Daily Tidy puzzles are a nice quick 1-10 minutes max, perfect for a quick break. Well worth buying if you enjoy relatively simple puzzles and are familiar with what being owned by a cat is like.

Takes some tinkering to solve the puzzles sometimes, but they're all enjoyable and good for when you want a little challenge but also something cozy and cute.

One of my favorite games of probably ever, nothing I've ever played has scratched the same itch this does, so I'm a little sad to see this Packed update is the finale (yes I WILL be holding my breath hoping for another paid DLC update someday), but it was an incredible experience with a wonderful soundtrack and art style, and I wish the devs nothing but the best for their next venture

Great game for relaxing and listening to a podcast at night. If some of the puzzles are not what I'm in the mood for, I love that I can skip them and still progress the game. The daily puzzles are also a great addition! As of now I've completed the base game at about 95% and have done 50 of the daily puzzles...and I just noticed they've dropped an update.

I love puzzles and organizing and this game meshes both of those things really well! I beat this game incredibly quickly and I come back everyday for the Daily Tidy. I love this game and I wish that there were more like it!

A fun time-wasting game with a great puzzle aspect, featuring many puzzles with multiple solutions. It can also be fully reset, so it can be done again. Sadly, the updates are done, but I've enjoyed the game immensely.

I absolutely adore this game! The whole experience - the music, the sound design, the art, and of course the puzzles! - brings me so much joy. I love the fact that so many levels have multiple "correct" sorting methods for you to figure out. Brings a nice, satisfying bit of tidying to my life without making the kitchen unusable for several hours because the contents of the pantry are on the floor :P

I started A Little to the Left expecting a relaxing, low-commitment experience. One of those games you play at the end of the day to switch your brain off. And in a way, it was... except my brain ended up doing mental gymnastics I didn’t see coming. I suffer (somewhat proudly) from a certain compulsive need for order, so I figured I’d feel right at home. Nope. Whoever created this game, I assure you, struggles with OCD more than I do. And that’s exactly what makes it brilliant: it forces you to think outside the box while you’re internally torn between “I want this to look tidy” and “wait... is this the kind of order they want?” If you take your time and use hints only when absolutely stuck, the main campaign takes about 10 hours to complete. Add the two DLCs and you’re easily looking at another 10 hours of content. And if you’re like me and decide to 100% the game, plan for at least 4 more hours—some achievements are daily and a few puzzles need to be replayed in different ways. I won’t highlight any single level because honestly, they’re all great. Sure, some stand out more than others, but none of them feel like filler. The visuals are charming and the sound design is wonderfully polished, a combination that makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Overall, the game is much more intricate and rewarding than I expected, and the time it took to complete made the purchase feel all the more worthwhile. Highly recommended. Especially if you think order is a simple thing. Spoiler: it’s not.

I really like this game, especially when I feel the need to just chill... until that darn cat comes in and gives me a jump scare.

This is an incredible game. Well-made and entertaining, this game is cute and whimsical and always fun to play.

Everyone says it's a relaxing game but I almost lost my mind while solving some puzzles. But I really enjoyed the most of them. Just some of them needed more hints and I wanted to finish the game without taking any hints but it was impossible for me. And I would want a few more chapters because I really liked the cozy atmosphere of the game.

Very relaxing and not entirely brainless. Puzzles are not difficult but some will take you a while to solve.

A cozy and calm puzzle game which I really liked, even though I haven't played the newest DLC yet. It's a simple yet challenging at times game when you have to find multiple solutions for the same puzzle but it's really interesting all the way through. I have also enjoyed the Cupboards and Drawers DLC and highly recommend it too. The daily tidies are a nice little addition too.

makes good noises, feeling of satisfaction after a hard puzzle is completed to 100%

A simple yet challenging game. The lengths I had to go to in order to think outside the box were, at times, both fascinating and infuriating in equal measure. Much satisfaction and serotonin gained, 10/10 would play again.

Really nice artwork and a good variety of different levels

Great for stress relief (though I was also stressed when I tried figuring out some of the levels), but all in all, it was satisfying in the end. Looking forward for more DLCs (if ever)

"A Little to the Left" is exactly what my overstimulated mind needed. This charming puzzle game transforms the simple act of organizing into a deeply meditative experience that feels like a warm hug for your brain. What strikes me most is how the game celebrates patience as a virtue rather than testing it. There's no timer ticking away, no penalty for taking your time - just you, beautifully illustrated objects, and the gentle satisfaction of finding their perfect place. Each puzzle invites you to slow down and really observe, turning what could be frantic gameplay into something wonderfully contemplative. The zen-like quality comes from the game's intuitive understanding that organization itself can be therapeutic. Whether you're arranging books by height, sorting pencils by color, or aligning picture frames just so, every interaction feels purposeful and calming. The soft sound design and gentle animations create an atmosphere that encourages deep breaths and mindful attention. I found myself returning to this game after stressful days, using it as a form of digital meditation. It's remarkable how arranging virtual objects can bring such genuine relaxation and mental clarity. The developers have created something truly special - a game that doesn't demand your energy but instead replenishes it. Perfect for unwinding, clearing your head, or simply enjoying some peaceful moments in your day. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a gentler gaming experience.

A Little to the Left is a cozy puzzle game that turns everyday tidying into a soothing game. You’ll sort books, align pencils, and arrange household items, all while dealing with a mischievous cat. The game’s sounds, visuals and fun achievements make it an excellent game to add to your steam library. This is one of my favourite games I have played. Although some achievements are quite tricky to get, most are fun to do. The hint system for this game is interesting. It has you use an eraser to reveal the hints. The DLC was fun to play and definitely worth trying! I did find that sometimes the game wouldn't register the placements of my items but its easily solved. I just needed to move the items a slight bit. Overall, the game is fantastic! Its cozy, had a nice soundtrack, fun puzzles and cute cats!

Puzzle game where you have to figure out the rules. Fun and quick.

As someone who has OCD. This game is truly so fun, and so interesting to play. This game is able to embrace evreything I think and feel. All the different levels being similar yet so different is so amazing, and being able to show that there is more than one way someone can look at the same group of objects and organize them is amazing. The graphics are so cute, the colors are so vibrant and pleasing, the music and sound effect for each object just make this game stand out. I also have the DLCS and those are just as amazing. They are both so different and it truly adds more depth into the game. I have never had any issues with this game, and if another DLC gets released I plan on getting it! I really recommend this game if you are looking for something cozy, sweet, and a little longer to play! Plus dont forget about the darling cats all around. Adore this game.

It's a really cute game! Simply lovely¬ Tho the puzzles sometimes have somewhat weird logo to me hahaha

relaxing game, but it's making me high key hate the cat stop messing with my puzzles >:( also the dlcs are needed to get all achievements which is kinda bad

I think this was a really fun game. I enjoyed the cupboards DLC the most because I hadn't seen gameplay spoilers of much of it. I found it disappointing that there were some levels that I couldn't complete no matter what, even after looking at the hint. I don't know if it's a glitch or my computer, but that's okay. I really appreciated the "let it be" button letting you go forward if you were stuck.

This game can be relaxing and satisfying, but also quite challenging at times. Overall, very cute and fun to play. Even after having played through the currently available DLCs, I still go back to play the daily tidy challenges.

This game is very comforting to play. The music is superb in that it's good enough to be noticed but it doesn't overwhelm other aspects of the game. In addition, all of the puzzles are super fun!

The pleasure of tidying and organising without actually having to get your hands dirty. 10/10 recommend

Cozy, clever, and extremely satisfying. Each puzzle turns tidying into a calming challenge, with beautiful visuals and just the right amount of whimsy (including a very mischievous cat). Perfect for fans of chill puzzle games like Unpacking, a total delight from start to finish.

Love this as a cozy game. The DLCs add a lot more game play, so do the archives and the Daily Tasks. A nice game to relax to after work / while listening to a podcast / audiobook / on a call with friends.

I actually love this little puzzle game, I will be coming back to this one for sure now and then because it is so chill and cute

super simple therefore relaxing. Mellow. Tidy up the things. The sounds and music add to the feeling of calm. Enjoyed playing this as a short break in my day to reset and clarify my mind.

It's a cute sweet game, didn't take super long to finish. It was calming and fun :3

Awesome satisfying game to play if you want to chill and calm down. Works to keep yourself busy with no stress. Recommend playing this when you are mad at your boyfriend too.

I absolutely love this game! It's very relaxing and makes you think without it being stressful. Highly recommend if you like puzzle games and cats :)

This is the perfect game to itch my perfectionist little brain. Only down side is when the cat messes up what I just fixed :,(
