Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
A lot of cozy games share the same problem: they usually have a great art style and a nice concept, but they lack the motivation to keep players engaged for a long time.
6 of 80 sampled reviews raised it
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The relaxed structure adapts well to multiplayer, as there is no pressure to compete or perform, making it easy for players to simply spend time in the world at their own pace.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
From my 1.2 hours of gameplay, the only thing I managed to find as an activity in this game is simply collecting various items or resources which either are used to get more of certain other items, traded for other items or is used to make acquiring other items easier.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Characters and animals are presented in a charming, almost toy-like style, contributing to the overall sense of warmth.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
I really hope future updates can add more ways for players to interact and make the co-op experience feel more meaningful.
