“Tbh I feel at home with this game. First off, I really love Bea’s and the slimes’ designs (so adorable and wholesome, my favorite slimes are probably the puddle, fire, phosphor, tabby, and Gordo ones) as well as the…”
“Life is good. One day I’m just bouncing around the Dry Reef, minding my own business and eating a stray pogo fruit, then fwoosh—I’m in a vacuum. Next thing I know, I’m in a box with ten of my best friends. The gall…”

“Unsure at first how good the game could be. I'm guessing it's Unreal Engine, because it feels plasticy and cluncy like all Unreal games. But the plasticy look really befenitted them. It's the excact art style they were…”

“I mean its alright, easy game to kill time with. I just wish it had some type of co-op aspect it gets boring pretty quickly.”
“Seemed like a relaxing game from the beginning, I was just collecting slimes, building pens, growing veggies, all happy and cheerful. Then I wanted to use some gadgets and mutate slimes and that's when the "fun" part…”

— a player, Steam review · 17 hrs played“It's a farming game based on a rather strange premise - on a planet far away from Earth, you grow, feed and use all sorts of cute living slimes. These pink, blue and other blobs have different advantages and food requirements, of course, and it all gets even more complicated…”
