Loved the idea, but the amount of bugs and game freezing makes it super annoying.3 found this helpful
The game has UI, placement, auto features that you can't disable once enabling and the devs disappeared after getting a list of complaints in September of 2024. Disappointing.3 found this helpful
It's buggy, there were several times I had to go back to base to reset my character. There are times that navigation is tedious. But overall, it's a cute game with a peaceful "regrow the world" playcycle. I enjoyed my time with it.1 found this helpful
A cute, relaxing, open-world, sci-fi puzzle and exploration game, with some light crafting, base-building and RPG elements. The farming aspect is more of a puzzle than an agriculture/horticulture simulation. You need to place plants in certain cominations in the hexagons to restore many areas. That's the main challenge of the game, the rest is scouting/exploring new areas, collecting resources, making stuff at workstations, chatting to your crewmates and doing little quests for them etc. Doesn't require a good PC, runs well on older hardware. Suitable for kids, but interesting enough for adults. Might be too easy for some players who want to be challenged.1 found this helpful
A very sweet game about landing on a new planet and repairing the ecosystem by removing rubbish and planting appropriate and diverse plants. The mechanism could be seen as repetitive, but it's very cosy and low-stakes and just a lovely time. Very nice graphics and music. My only complaint is that the locations are quite intricate, and I could do with a more detailed map to help me get around as I do tend to find myself wandering in circles wondering how to get out of an area! But that's a small complaint, and the fact that the locations and pathways are so intricate is a wonderful thing.1 found this helpful
Overall, I love the cozy gameplay. The characters, art style and environments are gorgeous and fun. Sadly I am currently discouraged from continuing to play due to the map system (I can’t see my location on the map nor the maze-like roads I have already unlocked). I don’t have the best memory so unfortunately the current map for people like me can be confusing. Adding a little glowing trail that our character can follow if the map system is too confusing (that we could turn on in the settings if needed) would be cool to see. I keep getting “dead ends” between areas that I cannot clear up yet, while trying to find one of the probes, which keeps me from advancing in the story. Hopefully I’ll find that current probe I’m stuck on some day. 😭
