      This game is a fun 2 full days of play in order to complete and perfect. I agree with some of the other reviews that there are some parts that seem unfinished and it's easy to get lost and have no assistance on how to proceed. Luckily others have posted most of the answers online so I was able to finish the game. I still enjoyed the game and was never fully annoyed by anyhting. The grind was just enough to still be enjoyable. The game also kept my interest till the end and I didn't feel bored or want to quit half way. I'd reccomend as a cozy laid back game.

      As others have stated the game feels unfinished at the moment. Some Islands that are there and seemingly made are just empty. By that I mean that there is a big house with an inside all mapped out, but there is nothing there. I'm 18 hours in (re-started, so 2 attempts) and I have practically finished the game and all the achievements. I just have the final thing to build now. It's one of those games I wish there was a "Don't know" option for rating. I can't say that it really grabbed me as a game to play, but it also hasn't been bad to play. It's sat in the middle. I certainly would have been a thumbs down if I had paid full price because I don't think it is worth that. On sale at £7.00 for base and DLC, then yes, it's okay. Is it a game with replay ability? I would say not, once you've done anything there really isn't much to go back for. It's a shame because as I stated it's not a bad game, just not a game that grabbed me and made me want to play more.

      Fun game yes, worth close to a days worth of play, but quickly spirals into insanity and grueling grind by late game. Yes, of course I need to farm coffee to fund expeditions to cotton island to get cotton to make paper to create lanterns to prove my allegiance to the moon bunny people to unlock the magic earings to gain access to the equipment forge. It all makes sense! Its just bottleneck after bottleneck of obtuse requirments for the weirdest advancements. Early game logic and grind, super fun totally recommend. Soon as you get around the town hall (pointless building also) start expecting to lose the will to continue.

      This is a chill to play game, nothing too crazy. Yes, it has some jank, yes sometimes it doesn't make a whole lotta' sense. The graphics are fine for what it is, the music is fine, and once you get through enough of it, it's just a relaxed colony sim with a couple levels of play involved--growing and supporting your city, then diving under it, and then exploring the islands around you. I can see how it puts some people off, but there are absolutely worse ways to spend your time than this. Give it a try if you are into city builders/colony sims.

      Played this game in early access and enjoyed it, so I was excited to see 1.0 release! I think a lot of the negative review are regarding its multiplayer function, or lack thereof. However, as someone who mainly plays singleplayer games, I enjoyed this a lot. The comprehensive tutorial is also completely optional and easy to ignore. I found it helpful since I like a little bit of direction in my sandbox games. Though overall I'd say this game has a laid-back, easy vibe, there is lots of grinding, especially as the game progresses, so if you're not into that, I'd say maybe pass on this one. I don't normally review, but when I saw the reviews were mixed for 1.0, I wanted to give a little shoutout to a game that I thoroughly enjoyed and plan to continue playing.
