Critic Reviews
NintendoWorldReport
By Joe DeVaderFor most, though, a mixture of the complete lack of any challenge in the minigames and the very slow pace may turn them off from the experience. Its art style is gorgeous and the soundtrack to accompany Little Pond is a joy to listen to, but at the end of the day those can only do so much to help the experience. If this sounds up your alley, you should absolutely give Teacup a playthrough! If not, well you may just have to look into a different blend to fill your cup.

By Kara PhillipsHow can you host a tea party with no tea? And how can you replenish your supplies if you're too anxious to leave? Join beloved Teacup on her adventure around Little Pond to make sure her supplies are plentiful, and see what the world has to offer once you step out of your comfort zone.

By Chantelle McCollTeacup is a beautiful 2D narrative-driven game that goes to great lengths to create a believable and captivating world.
Nindie Spotlight
By Justin NationCute and charming games can always be a pleasant distraction amidst the chaos of more intense action-driven games, but moreso than on any Nintendo system to date their abundance has also made standing out in the space more difficult...
Hey Poor Player
By Heather Johnson YuTeacup was a lovely surprise in so many ways, its careful and quiet protagonist making a big impact in such a simple yet unexpected manner. With aesthetics that feel like a children’s storybook giving players a warm and cozy hug, Teacup is a fantastic little wholesome title that will delight anyone who feels drawn to it. If you’re looking for a bright, cheery game, Teacup is absolutely going to be your cup of chamomile.
