About the Game
==============
Woodo is a cozy diorama puzzle game where you assemble wooden scenes piece by piece. As you place objects in their correct spots, each scene slowly fills with color and comes to life, revealing charming animations and small surprises. Follow the story of Foxy and Ben the frog through a series of interconnected dioramas, each capturing a unique moment from their shared adventure.  
Feel like you’re assembling a real toy, with each piece clicking into place with a satisfying, tactile sensation, as if it’s right in your hands.  
Assembling objects isn’t linear—you have to turn and explore the 3D space to reveal hidden pieces. Watch as each piece transforms the world around you, with playful animations that react to your placements, bringing the diorama to life.  
With a friendly narrator's voice, immerse yourself in a world when time was plentiful and much of it was spent outdoors, when the simplest things surprised and when every day promised great adventure. Feelings that were more present in childhood and are often missed or even forgotten with time passing.  
The game features funny and charming characters that create an atmosphere of carefree joy and humor, reminding you that happiness is what your inner child needs.

  - Reasoning: The only explicit numeric playtime is the reviewer who 'easily lost 4 hours' on their first session, which directly supports sessionLength = 4 hours. Multiple reviewers say they finished the whole game in one sitting or in one go, but none provides an hour figure, so gameCompletion and storyCompletion cannot be quantified from the supplied evidence.
