“It's a fun unique game, I don't have any issues with the game itself, just had issues with syncing my data and my save got corrupted weirdly. If you like the bones of this game I'd emplore you to check out the sequels…”

“I need to replay this game because I had so much fun with it when I first got it. It has this great built-in feature that stops you from playing for too long called ragequitting, where you get so mad about failing that…”

Definitely not a relaxing game, but it's easy to jump in and out of since it's so simple mechanically. There's a little bit of a grind and I kind of wish there was more foods…”
