Only needs a short one! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Might stop and explore and unlock the secrets sometime.

Partly because of the price but mostly 'cause it looks and plays wonderfully and has a lovely sound.

I'd say that's why, anyway.

Um... price has nothing to do with it.

In context:

It’s difficult to review a game like this. It costs $12.95, and yet, it feels entirely worth it. There is nothing really wrong with it at all. It could be longer, and perhaps the introduction of hazards halfway through was not entirely necessary, but that’s about it. The controls work perfectly. There are secret flowers to find that will have you replaying the game at least a couple more times – though you’ll want to do that anyway. There’s trophy support, and they’re all rather mysteriously described, so there’s definitely enough content to keep you coming back. That’s about all I can say without spoiling the experience. It’s simple, it’s genius, and it’s great fun.

The difficulty is that there's not a huge lot to describe, and there's nothing really wrong with it.

It feels worth it because it's a great game. I actually think $12.95 is on the expensive side.

I always take cost in to account when reviewing a game. $100 for Mega Man 9 would be a rip off, but $15 sounds about right.

So I forked out for Flower today due to all the "masterpiece" reviews.. I CAN see what all the fuss is about, but it's not really my thing. On the forth level where the lights lose power I flew around in circles for a few mins thinking there was an actual gameplay element involved, but nope, I just had to flow on through the darkness..

And yeah, pretty short.. only 6 levels all up >_>

Well, you light up under the lamps to illuminate the pools (trophy!).
