15 of 23 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Whilst it is much shorter than I expected, this cozy title’s simple gameplay and beautiful artstyle creates a homely and relaxing aura with an abundance of secrets to discover.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
It’s true that its art style is sweet and its simple story is calming and might even bring you a smile or two, but considering that one playthrough takes around 1.5 hours at a relaxed pace and that there is close to zero replayability (aside from obtaining those mutually exclusive achievements), I would advise waiting for a deep sale before diving in.
