It was a fun 18 hours, that you could probably beat in 10-15 if you hyper focus on automation. But the game is not challenging at all. It's a chill game that you can use to kill a few hours and ignore the mountain of work that you must complete in favour of procrastination.

A cozy experience that loses its magic before the finish line... Forage Wizard starts strong. The first half or so is genuinely zen; charming visuals, intuitive mechanics, and a relaxing survival crafting loop that's easy to sink into. It nails the cozy game vibe. The cracks start showing around the midpoint, though. For a game built around building up a farm/factory setup, the automation never really delivers on its promise. You're still manually clicking to collect resources deep into the late game, when you should be sitting back and watching your well-oiled machine do the work for you. The last 10% in particular felt like a grind. I pushed through the final 4-5 hours mostly out of stubbornness rather than enjoyment. If harvesting plants and enemy kills could be fully automated this would be a significantly better game. The bones are good. The art is charming, it's welcoming to new players, and the early game loop is genuinely enjoyable. It just doesn't stick the landing. 7/10

Cool and relaxing game but I feel like we should have more things added - like water doesn't have an auto generator and it is a basic material from the start of the game. Progression feels kinda slow when you can't automate basic things.

A lukewarm positive recommendation with some caveats. This is a nice and pleasant clicker / incremental game that is hampered by limited automation tools which really make the late-game a slog. Overall, it's a bit underdeveloped, but it's got a strong design direction, it's kinesthetically satisfying, and it's different enough from other stuff in the genre. (I haven't played "Click Mage" which it's supposedly based on, but the strongest comparison for me is the web game "Immortality Factory" which I like quite a lot.) It's often hard to articulate what makes a given automation game "good" or "bad" since ultimately all these games are about creating arbitrary barriers and tedious busywork, then giving the player the ability to streamline them. A game with less powerful automation tools isn't necessarily worse for it, since part of the fun is adapting to a given game's unique constraints. That being said, sometimes awkwardness and tedium is just that. In Forage Wizard, the automation is in the form of networks of "pylons" which can shuffle resources between different stations. They're difficult to work with for some reasons that feel like design decisions and some which feel unintentional. For the intentional stuff, they have a huge building footprint and very limited range, especially at the start. They also have to be built by hand and you'll need dozens of them, but that's just part of the game's commitment to reifying your resources as physical things within the world; arranging your storage to make it convenient to access resources and build structures is part of the challenge. All of this is fine - in fact, I actually like how early on, you can't deposit resources directly from a station to a chest; instead it gets spit out onto the ground and needs to be scooped up by a "collector." This creates a fun puzzle of arranging buildings so that they won't accidentally spit out an input too close to another building and jam it up, and it makes it a big relief when you later unlock the baskets to directly collect from stations. That's all the "good" awkwardness and tedium; the healthy bits of artificial friction that make a good automation / incremental game. For the unintentional stuff, the lack of a visible grid to place things on, the inconsistent footprints of structures that don't line up with their visuals, and the fact that some of the visual indicators of pylon range are just straight up broken means you'll do a lot of nudging buildings around to try to get them placed correctly. Things don't line up cleanly and it's never obvious exactly how much space you have to work with or how to use it effectively, making it hard to plan ahead, and harder still to redesign later on. Rearranging a factory feels like playing one of those sliding block puzzles where all the pieces look the same. There's some missing QOL touches that would go a long way - for instance, some buildings show their inventory while not hovered and some don't, making it difficult to tell visually if a pipeline is clogged by a bad input. Some resources weirdly *can't* be automated and you'll need a lot of them: wheat, cotton, leaves, mandrakes, gold, and wisps, not to mention hundreds or even thousands of units of water. The game is at its best in the transition from the early game to the mid-game, as you start to accumulate enough upgrades, and tools to automate away basic and intermediate level resources. Later on, building spaces fill up, production chains get more complex, no new automation tools appear (or upgrades to existing ones) and by the end I kind of just gave up on automating anything new since you won't actually need more than a handful of the end-game resources to win. That's a lot of negative feedback, but I did still like the game overall; it's just the positive stuff is mostly unremarkably positive. It's like 80% of an excellent casual automation game, but all the little QOL issues render it instead merely "pretty decent."

S tier game, on the short side compared to alot of other game but took me around 10 hours to beat, loved every minute of it. The progression of this game is wonderful and you really notice the difference when the automation building start becoming relevant. The Dev is very active on the discord and open to any tweaks suggested, the game has had a long period playtest to help iron out the few remaining issues. if you do choose to buy this game and have any issues with it PLEASE go to the discord for help.
