21/1 - Tiny Bookshop Game Review - Book Recommendation Gameplay

January 21, 2026 #notes

I played this game yesterday (20 Jan) and really liked the book recommendation system, where based on the customer info (genre they liked, what they're looking for, and their fav book), I can browse through my bookshelves with title and synopsis and recommend a real book. I also liked how they use real books. I feel happy when I found a book that I've read and I felt interested when I see interesting books that I haven't read.

Another similar game is Dave The Diver where they use real fishes or sea animals. And I feel happy when I see animals that I've dived with on my dive experience. And feel excited or hopeful when I see interesting animals that I want to dive with someday.

There ought to be more hobby games where they use real life animals/items/places in the game.
