Sporting a fantastic sense of space and a clear appreciation for all things photographical, Lushfoil Photography Sim is a gorgeous indie escapade that's well worth checking out if you're looking to sit back and relax.

The game's split up into a number of explorable locations based on real places of the world. There's no definitive progression to speak of outside of steadily unlocking new environments; you're wholeheartedly encouraged to just take things at your own pace.

As alluded, the locations themselves are quite stunning. There's an impressive visual diversity to each environment, and real care has been given to both minor details and looming backdrops — a perfect mix when it comes to actually snapping some shots.

Just like in real life, taking photos is as simple as pointing your lens at something and hitting a button — but as its name suggests, Lushfoil Photography Sim offers a lot of depth for those who want to get technical.

Cameras boast realistic features and settings, while the game itself offers step-by-step tutorials on how to use them. It's all very welcoming, and while the controls can be a little fiddly, it doesn't take long to grasp the finer points of taking pictures.

There are challenges to complete and collectibles to find, but again, the crux of the experience is freeform exploration — and occasionally stopping to immortalise a worthy view.

We do find it a bit odd, however, that taking photos only adds said photos to your in-game album — they don't get saved to your PS5's storage. A potentially annoying oversight for some players.

Still, Lushfoil Photography Sim is a deeply relaxing, lovingly crafted excursion that's so easy to get lost in.
