The Campsite does a good job of making use of it's short run time. It has a very comfy feel to it and I love the setting. It has some pretty straightforward puzzles that for the most part are logical. I will give it credit for having a unique Morse code puzzle. I did ind the use of the stake to be a bit weird. I like how it allows you to highlight things that can be clicked on but makes it optional. It satisfies both spectrums of puzzle gamer. The graphics are alright but pixel art games are always a tough one to grade as they are meant to be low detail to start with. The music is well done. I do wish that the handling of the text was different. While you can pause the game or skip the text it will almost always continue without stopping. I wish there had of been an option to set it to only advance text manually. There isn't a ton of story here but what there is was enjoyable and worked well.

I played The Campsite on Linux. It never crashed and I didn't notice any spelling errors or other glitches. There are no graphics options at all. The save system is one that saves on exit from the game and overwrites the same one save file each time. I would have preferred a manual save system with multiple slots although given the short run time it wasn't a huge deal. Performance was great but given the visual detail it should be.
