Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
98 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I imagine a lot of people playing this game have also played other "cosy" hunting-farming-gathering-crafting games, CWS has an odd mix of really enjoyable and really frustrating mechanics.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
86 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The replayability is incredible, the story is fun, boss fights are actually quite tough if you don't grind, and customization options are even better than in the original.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The fighting is also frustrating, but still, i think its a good difficulty.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

There's clearly a lot of love put into this game, the graphics are cute, as far as I could tell it's bug free, the music ranges from good to ok, the gameplay is very reminiscent of Cozy games like stardew valley (while managing to be different).
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Not only do you have a TON of character customization options, but the secret sauce to making Cattails either cozy or adrenaline-pumping is in the accessibility settings.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is soft and melodic, with jazzy undertones that shift depending on time and weather, enhancing the meditative quality of the gameplay.
