Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The puzzles in this game are definitely more complex and take a bit more thought, and the introduction of other gameplay types (combat, platforming) was really neat, for the most part!

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
Pros: great compelling storytelling, fitting graphics that are different from previous harvester games but still fit within their wider aesthetic. fun and interesting puzzles that mostly feel solvable, not unfairly challenging and not too easy either
