Honestly this game is truly something, what a fantastic experience. I originally got this game through the EGS giveaway but I decided to buy it again on Steam since the devs really deserve it (+ an excuse to replay it again). A rather simple premise at the start but the game has a very engaging story and great characters, all accompanied by a satisfying gameplay loop and an OUTSTANDING soundtrack (no joke, this might be one of the very best I've ever heard). Like genuinely, every single one of the tracks in this game are an absolute joy to hear. Everything fits perfectly into the game and it's one of those perfect examples where the music really bumps the game into something else, there has been many times where I simply stopped by a bench to hear the town tunes a lil longer. Grahm Nesbitt really cooked with this one. Other than that, the gameplay is a mix of fetch quests and dungeon crawling. Both are very entertaining and fun to do though I would wish there was a lil bit more of fighting, I think it would have been neat to see an endless mode like the Roguelite one Turnip Boy had in one of it's DLC's, just to use some of the end-game weapons... But at the same time by the end of the game I was satisfied with what I played and wanted to give the game a proper rest. For the more casual players, there are options to lower down the combat part of the game if you're only looking for the story content of the game. Also this game has a really cool system for customising Concord's stats via their "memories". It's a pretty neat thing were you fulfill certain things and the game records a memory with that moment (and the game makes an actual screenshot, so it's unique for everyone). Really interesting system, was pretty fun to fill up the notebook. And regards character customization, you can drip out Concord with some cool hats and backpacks you can find in every village shop. Very drippy. My only slight issues with the game is that the end grind of Village levels (totally optional btw) can be a lil repetitive since you need lot's of points and it's annoying when you only get low-value quests or nothing for the day. Also there's a lot of equipment upgrades which is pretty cool, but unfortunately by the time you get them... They don't really have any use anymore. Story wise just a minor nitpick with some characters not really having enough presence (since I expected them to do after the demo and artwork tbh). But honestly none of that really impacted negatively on my experience. I really recommend this one, it's one of those hidden gems. Specially if you enjoy games like Earthbound, this one has been one of the few games that made me feel the same way as I did back when I played Earthbound for the first time. Concord might not speak much, but they really manage to get you invested in their journey. What a silly lil' grape.
My 5 and 8 year old kids loved this game and were able to play it despite not really being able to handle other games. I did most of the boss fighting and it was quite easy for me. Some tips from a min-maxer who got 100% achievements: Start your controller before you start the game. Alt+Enter to fix full screen mode. There is never a need to actively stock up on wood, Stone, or coin (leaflets). Wait until you have finished Summer Bar for the remaining tips: Some orbs require a charged attack, others require you to bait a rot over and make them hit it. Dowsing rod events have more challenge for rarer items: 3 cards for yellow shell, 5 cards for blue, and 10 for red. If you only want red shells right now, you can intentionally fail by spamming other directions, exit the screen, and come back to try again. Goldie is in a hidden screen to the east of The Riverway in Spring Hamlet, you have to break the orb first. Finish their quests and then visit daily for free stuff. Instead of going to sleep, check memories to improve your stats... you can even see what to do to unlock more memories. Stack luck to nearly guarantee things like glass lenses when you break jars. You carry a jar for each season, and can switch from the inventory menu. You have to fill them separately too, but dont give up hope in a dungeon when you can just swap. Putting chests everywhere you can is worth it. You need sap to make chests. Sap can be farmed from the Spring library dungeon or by getting a special dew and using it on dry stumps to convert them into leafy stumps. The game maxes out at stacks of 35 in your bank, but you'll never need more than 25 items at a time. Tools max out at level 5, but aside from your base sword and dowsing rod it's not worth it except for fun. Towns max out at level 5, but by the end it's not worth doing it. Check the stores during the day if there's anything still locked and pursue only the color you need for it. Benches can fast forward up to a quarter of your day, but then you have to change screens. It seems like certain towns grow things better (multiple results instead of one at a time). Autumn town for cobblestone (cobble piece), Winter Glade for chick peas (porcelain shells), think it's jelly beans (bioluminescent pods) in Summer Bar, and Kukui nuts in Spring Hamlet (but might have that reversed with Summer Bar).
Pleasant is the best way to describe this game; the music, the setting, the characters, everything about this was so relaxing and nice--except for when night falls or you're in the dungeon sections, the eerie music (or lack thereof) conveys the danger of being around the rot really well. The game does such a great job of growing Concord's strength; I felt so small and weak at first, but felt so strong and capable by the time I made it to the final boss. Saving the villages and helping my friends really made me emotional at the end of the story, I never thought I would cry over sentient plants! Also, the accessibility settings in this game helped me out a lot. I'm so happy I got to experience Concord's journey, it was very sweet.
Garden Story is a cosy little game about saving your small hemisphere of the world from the "Rot". The game is a perfect blend of simplicity, difficulty, exploration, storey, puzzles, collecting items and charm. Though some caveats of this game is that the controls can take some getting used to, as it is a keyboard only game, and it can get a bit samey if your going for 100%. Overall, its a good, relatively short game that you can easily relax and enjoy playing over a few sessions.
