A wonderfully bizarre and strangely fun Flash game by Jakub Dvorský of Amanita Design. Samorost is an adventure game that is full of clicky puzzles and beautifully rendered scenes mixed with animations and various gadgetry. The soundtrack is delightful with sound effects and music to fit the mood of the surrealistic adventure. It's not very long, but will keep you busy for just the right amount of time. It's quite large though, measuring 950 pixels wide by 750 pixels tall. Enjoy this masterpiece of creativity and interactive art.

Play Samorost

Also check out Jakub's latest creation, Quest for the Rest, a game and website for US rockpop band The Polyphonic Spree.

Samorost Walkthrough

Screen 1:

Click the metal cylinder at the top and get the telescope out. You get a cinema scene of another world going to crach into our hero's. Off he flies to save his home.

Screen 2:

Click the smoker and wait until there is nothing left to smoke. Click him again, and he throws the thing down. Click the low hanging wire on the ski lift, so it goes back up, then use the smoker's inhaling end as a key in the box. Press the red button, then get the monk out of your way, point the sign to the left, and ski the hero down.

Screen 3:

Click the bobber at the end of the fishing reel. Click all the lizards that try to climb up, then click the pterodactyl that picks at the fish bones. Presto!

Screen 4:

Click the knob on lthe log at the right until you cant anymore. Click the hole in the left foreground log, then click the hole to the lower left of the hero a few times, so the bees and then the guy with the lightbulb will come out. Click the button below the hero, then click the silver knob on the elevator and then the hero.

Screen 5:

Click all the worms when they come out, then click the hole in the middle of the screen. press the button on the record player, then shift the music twice. Click the owl a few times, and off you go.

Screen 6:

Open the elevator's door, then move the metal rod on the tree. Wait until the anteater is eating, then click the stairs. Open the power box and set the switches like it shows on the door, then go in.

Screen 7:

Turn on the light, then, using the left hand set of buttons, set the dial to 50. Click the middle left button, click the whaeel at the top, and there you go. :)

O that's it, that's it! This is the game that I was talking about that one time.. where the little guy's trying to save his planet! hehe!

I know everyone's gotten out from the Crimson Room awhile back, but have you escaped the Viridian Room yet?

PS. Thanks for the comment Jay. [[[[HUGS]]]]

Do you mean the bit with the ski lift or the one after? The ski lift you get the pipe fella to smoke all his coal then use the pipe as a key move the slack string and start the lift. Move the goat and hey presto. Next screen press on the very bottom of the line - you may need to zoom in and scroll if the bottom of the screen isn't fitting on. Fend off the lizards and get the pterodactyl to take you onwards

i cant get passed the goats i moved the one made the others sing but the guy wont move PLEASE HELP

has anyone gotten past the part with the pipes because i could really use some help there.

I'm having trouble playing this game on my 15" new iMac, since the window goes off the screen far enough to keep the fishing float from being visible, meaning my game is through there. Am I missing something? Or this game just to friggin' big? I LOVE the concept though.

Reply

Jhoka - the game requires a resolution of 950x750. Check the resolution that's set for your display, and increase it if possible. I'm sure the 15" iMac is capable of 1024x768, which should be just enough to display this game.

What music is being played in the scene where the capsule is hung on a limb, there are worms chewing and an owl is asleep on the limb, and the squirrel is listening to music. I would like to know the source of the music and titles.
Thanks

Oh I love this game! I found it a while back but the url must have changed. I'm so glad it's back -- yay for Jay!

Yeah, this is a great game. it took me about 4 attempts first time but it's really not too hard once you get into it. THeir should be more games like this...

I loved this - want more - Nay , NEED more

I get stuck on scene 5 even after reading above. It says to shift the music twice, but I can't find anything to shift. I have pressed the red button, but then I can't find anything else to do. Help

Rebe, do you mean with the owl? press the records underneath the player, and the thing there will switch it. change it until the owl wakes up, and then click the owl a few times =]

This game was wierd. I just dont get it? how did it take you four attempts? i didnt even realise you could die! I just clicked around and it changed scene. It was a bit slow too. Dont get me wrong it looked great, but i think it would be better in a gallery than as a game.

I'm stuck on scene 6... how to open elevator door..?

Reply

YUKIRO: hint- open the little box near the door. Can you put the lights of the boxes in same order that dots on door are..?

Reply

Easy Peasy! wow, i found it so easy i thought i was doing it wrong. Actually to be truthful, there was a point i thought i had died and would have to start all over again (like in Hapland 2). The bit where the ant eater ate me! The game is a little weird and it is short but i like it!!
Just keep clicking around and you'll get it (thats what i did).

I discovered Samorost when it first came out, by accident. I played it at least five times..lol I was thinking about the game recently, and many PC crashes later of course it was no longer in my Favs.. "Googled" and your site came up. Thanks! :D

Very cool. I needed help with screen 7 though. Good pick jay.

whoa im getting better at these- i beat this one in 15 minutes O.o

Did anyone else notice that at the end credits it says "creted by". I just find it slightly amusing. :)

Reply

Yeah Grace i saw that too :P

It's a nice game, fun to do, but i was being stupid on the first stage and forgot to make the guy move, i thought he was saying the sign was in the way :P

P.S. yeah! Jay i visit allmost every day, its so fun here! :D

Cool, this was the first game i ever played here, such a great site.

Ha. GREAT stuff, Jay. I really had fun with this. Sometimes I had trouble with the loading, but I finally finished it. This was really fun.

Reply

That one was pretty easy.I liked it..Thanks jay

What i must do in screen 6!! :(

Reply

I just love games like this! I get so tired of the typical Point-and-Click games. Polyphonetic spree, Shift and Samorost are my favorite games I've found. If anyone know of any other games like these PLEASE let me know! Thanks so much Jay for such a wonderful site!

Interesting game, very novel. Good rip, since I've never bought a game since 1997.

Reply

I thought Samorost1 and 2 were very creative,and also very clever!I like Samorost2 because there is a story behind it.I hope there will be a Samorost3 someday!

I loved both of the games and the lil smokin guy looks exactly like a friend of mine! LOL The graphics are beyond awesome ... Props to Jakub Dvorský

I haven't played this little game in forever! Its like riding a bicycle: you never forget. I have to admit, I think I like Samarost 2 better. I dunno why.

I'v finished this game seven times, there's a second one too

Reply

these games are fun

Reply

LOVE this one. I'm so into point and click games. I'm obsessed with the puzzles, love the escape the room ones....

Jay... have you thought about having, in addition to the search feature on your website, an area where you can click on a type of game that lists corresponding games of that nature?
i.e....
click on point and click and find a list of links to each of those games. I guess a kind of categorization system, so people that specifically liked those types of games could easily find them on your site?

just a thought...

:)

What a fun, charming little game. I really love the look and tone. Plus I think this is the first of these games I've found on here that I beat without needing any hints, so yay for me.

Very cute game, my only problem is that it is very short, and not hard, but a fun way to was a few minutes. Im going to go play the 2nd now :)

I too had come across this game YEARS ago, loved it, then lost it, then came across it again and loved it all over, the second one too. I in no way minded paying the $7 for #2, these guys deserve every penny. They have produced a beautiful, original game. Their websites and animations are just fantastic.

I consider time spent with this game, the farthest thing from a "waste" of minutes. It is a nice experience, that YES, should also be on a wall in a gallery.

I got through all the levels until the last, where I got stuck. Thanks!

haha..the owl

dance!

I stuck at the door a little while. hint:

look at the red dots combination on the door

Samorost 1 and 2 were great. When will there be Samorost 3. I got stuck on "majak" for ages and thought I'd never do it but persevered and got there in the end. What a sense of achievement. Please, please, bring on Samorost 3.

Reply

Can You help me to find onother Samorost to play
thank You in advance

Reply

that was one heck of a good game! finished it 1st time but since you cant die you just need to persevere and click everything that moves (even if it doesn't move click it anyway).

How cute is that? Aww...

What a wonderful game. Enough of a puzzle without being difficult. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you to the author!

i love this game its so awesome
i remember playing it a while back

Reply

Samorost, Click, Gwen and Haluz are all favorites of mine. The gameplay (I use the term loosely) is relaxing and engaging. And the artwork and sound are among their elements that distinguish them from other point-and-clicks.

I echo Jay's comment that this is a "masterpiece of creativity and interactive art".

I'd love to this genre become a candidate for a JIG competition one day.

Had to play this through again. Still as good the second time.

My favorite casual game of all time ^__^

Reply

On the last scene, after you turn on the light, where is the dial that you have to turn to 50?

Reply

Davie-
There is no dial. The buttons above the meters are the dials. Note the plus and minus signs.

By the way, pressing tab gives out major hints.

Reply

Love these simple, easy-going games with beautiful graphics. Love them. :) Oh, and love this website, it's awesome. It took me forever to find it and an avid online games player.

Reply

is it just me,or does it look like the programmer changed something in the game? everytime the anteater eats the ant,i click the stairs and my characgter disappears for about 5 seconds then reappears and starts walking. when i used to play it,it always went up the stairs. i don't get it.

Reply

I have been trying to find out the name of a game I was playing that was something like this. The codes for some of the levels are kompotarna, planina, lesik and majak. Does anyone know what game these level codes are for? Thank you.

Reply

@wjguest:

The second part of the very game you just played: Samorost 2

Reply


BadDog

I thought that was it also but when I put in the codes it doesnt go there. It just starts at the beginning and I know I must have paid for the full version or I would not have had the codes. After a few levels it goes to the end. I guess I will just have to pay again to see if I can get further. Thanks for the help.

I have played and beaten this a gazillion times and I love it every time! the second one is great too.
