Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
At first, the game seems quite interesting, but in the end you wander in circles through the same locations and complete tasks that are not even marked on the map, which makes you wander back and forth through the locations (memorizing them would be crazy). Constant dialogues are annoying (there are too many of them, too many!). As a result, after a very short time, it simply becomes not interesting to play :(2 found this helpful

This game, was SO GOOD. When I started playing I thought "Hey, this game looks cute. why not buy it?" But the more I played. the more touching it became. (Don't worry. no spoilers.) It started out just being a simple grape. then it worked up to the "why? and how?" the story is so simple... but so so complex! I don't l know if you think it is a good game but I can tell you... "I, LOVE IT"
Not bad at all! I quite enjoyed it, and recommend it to others.
I LOVE this game, the art style asethetic and characters are adorable the music is great and this is my second time playing (first time was on the switch) however the puzzle near the end was a little too much for me, my second time around and as a result i don't think i'll be 100% completing this one but overall 100% recommend to all first time players.
Wonderfully charming little indie gem that oozes character and love. The characters and world are adorable and the music is a super relaxing vibe. The system to "upgrade" the villages is a nice and rewarding mechanic, that you can engage with as much or as little as you like, while following the story. Wholy recommend this one!
