Game is fun, Get it full price or discuounted, you are getting your money's worth either way. Its not perfect, however. Combat and movement is clunky and can be frustrating and the lack of diversity in enemies can make it seen repetitive. The story moves along well enough to keep you engaged and doesn't drag for too long despite the 30hrs to beat it. Its paced well imo with enough stuff in between to not make it a drag to complete.

A platform RPG that delivers in every way. You plant rice and tend it. The growing part is very in depth and you really have to manage your rice field. But not too in depth to spoil the game or hold up the exploration. Exploration is a lot of fun. Sakura hits hard and fast and can pull off quite large combos All in all this is the exact RPG I have been looking for for quite a while now. 10/10

The anime made me want to play this again and I remembered I didn't review this. The main focus of the game is the Rice Farming simulator. I never even experienced this but seems quite close to real, mixing with the game aspects while not making it too real to the point of making a dull game. Well, you can't argue with Asians when it's about rice farming. This aspect is fun, at least for me since I like this kind of thing, but some people may not like it. So keep in mind this when you gonna buy the game. 8/10 Farming is the core aspect of Sakuna. Since you need to do it to increase stats since the game has no leveling system. Now to the platformer. It's fun, not the best but it's fun 2.5D. You have tools to jump and grab. Skills for attack and evasion and a small but diverse amount of enemies. Sometimes the skills are a bit annoying to use, but it's quite okay to mix and fight the bosses. There's a bunch to explore and hunt for items to help with the rice farming, they're quite simple and charming. Lots of hidden items to find. But could use some more work and explore more the character's abilities. Overall 7/10 All I can say about the BGM is I love it. Judge me. : About the Story, I like it. Sakuna's development is great, together with the humans they start as strangers and share bounds and grow together. The cinematics are awesome. Just at the end.... Well, you should check yourself. 8/10. Also, the Art is 10/10. Just beautiful. Overall 8/10. I liked it. I had a great time playing it. A great platformer with farming elements.

It's not a game for everyone, because you will spend a lot of time taking care of your rice fields, learnign about the rice production cycle, along with exploring the world and gathering materials. So if you are interested in rice, there's a chance for you. The art is gorgeous, and the characters lovable. I loved Sakura's development. I hope to play a sequel some day.

Turns out playing this game was worth college credit toward my agriculture degree! If you ever wanted to learn everything there is to know about growing rice from sorting seeds to planting to how much water to keep in the paddy to weeding to harvesting to threshing to hulling (and that includes various methods for each step) then this is the game for you! The overall game is pretty good - fun combat, good story and characters, nice aesthetic, in-depth but not overbearing farming mechanics, etc - but it's not perfect. Sometimes you hit a wall in enemy levels and you just get destroyed until you level up more, sometimes items will need to be grinded in order to craft items or complete quests and there isn't always an easy way to do that. There aren't any major negative points, though, so I would still highly recommend it. It's a solid 8/10.
