Community Insight:

J'aime les patates follows a city of potato-loving little people as they figure out how to come together as a community and tackle some big issues that they are facing. There is a really cool surprise at the end of the game that gives context to everything. It is not an overly long adventure but it is also not short either and you will feel satisfied with how our adventure wraps up. We hope that you enjoy it like we did.


It was short and sweet and really cute not much else to say but we loved it.


This game is great and we sooo recommend it! It was short but sweet just like the first review said. It is cute like every one else says and please put our review up! We love it and we think everyone needs to know that. We love the way everyone chitters in the game. ( So cute!) we recommend that you make another game that goes after this one. It could be where you would get the potato peels and use them to buy a home, a TV and more stuff. It would be a little more freestyle so you like end the game once you get all the upgrades. You could start out and get a tiny home with a bed and a couch. Then at the end you would have a mansion! Maybe tons of friends too! Back to the original game. It is very peaceful and fun fun fun! Get this game if you are looking for a peaceful, sweet, and short game! Buy it now! P.S It is completely free! No in app purchases.


Es un juego corto pero bello, tiene un mensaje positivo y un estilo ms que hermoso. Esto no es un juego, es una pieza de arte que debera ser ms conocida. Lo recomiendo al 100 por ciento.


We just finished the game and it is SO fun at first it seemed like a joke but at the end we felt something totally recommend it is cute fun and true it is so cool and we wish there was more of THIS on the app store.


We loved this game. The graphics were amazing, it was entertaining, and it was created for a good cost! What more could we ask.


This game is so fun but we wish it could never end and the characters were so Adorable.


This game is surprisingly fun. When we first started playing we thought it was a little weird but we kept playing it it turns out to be very fun. Chips and all his friends are extremely cute. We love all the characters. The monster is really fun to be around. We highly recommend this game.


This game was amazing! We love it and wish there was another one. It is so cool how this was based on a real story. Wonderful editing. We would totally play this again.


This game was short, but sweet. The graphics were lovely and colorful. The tiny townspeople were so cute and the main conflict was relatable and inspiring. We loved how the story was based on true events! We recommend this game to young people and innovators seeking inspiration on how to change the world. It really makes you think: What are we doing to the world? Our bodies? Our friends? Overall, this game was amazing and we dont believe it couldve been made any better.


We got this game after hearing about it online. It's cute and short and provides powerful messages of sustainability and social innovation. Great for people of all ages, even if it's geared towards children. Lots of fun to play.


We love this game! We used to play it a lot when we were little. It's relaxing and we reccomend.


We got this game a long time ago and it was really short so we did not like it.So please update the game please.
