Gameplay

Or if you are lazy like me, you can just use the many unlockable furniture options the Greenheart devs created that you can get from patron gifts through gameplay.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
95 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The narration and characters/NPCs that have tales to tell of their own, bring the game so much more to life.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I like the goofy cartoonish art style, I like the background music, I like the tycoon/management style of gameplay.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Even in early access, it has very good music, voice acting, and playable content.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Quality of life is carefully thought out of, the voice acting and storytelling is incredibly charming and VERY well done, and even in early access there is plenty of content (a little over 10 hours on a balanced difficulty).
Bugs
Players who bring up Bugs mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I might have seen a tiny bit of harmless jank, but absolutely zero game-breaking bugs that would ruin the gameplay or brick my save file.
