Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
In order to create your settlement, you need to buy a Plot, to put stuff in it... well guess what, the first plot, is a piece of manure, wood plot, its give given to you "free" it's not free, it costs 60 Cubits, which you have now as part of the Reward you were given.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The game still has many issues that were only ever band-aided or not really solved at all, but the core gameplay experience is very enjoyable once you max out a character, if somewhat repetitive and grindy.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Voxel done right: clean textures, flowing art style, interesting and beautiful landscapes, horizontal AND vertical half blocks (think slabs but on its side) gives the player both the resources and inspiration to build wonders and explore the unknown.
