  • story
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is minimal, centering around an unemployed apple who embarks on a series of interconnected fetch quests across a whimsical island populated by quirky fruit and vegetable characters. While the quests are engaging and often humorous, the characters lack depth, and there is little post-quest dialogue to enrich the narrative experience. Overall, the game prioritizes exploration and lighthearted interactions over a robust storyline.

    • “You're an unemployed apple who gets themselves into a large number of intricately linked fetch quests on a slightly maze-like island full of other fruit and veggies on legs who all have silly, though sometimes also touching, dialogues in mild internet speak.”
    • “There’s not much of a story, but you, an unemployed apple … aptly named Apple, wake up and summon the courage to touch some grass (this is actually a quest title).”
    • “If you like chill and story-driven games, check out my curator [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35872486]peaceful adventures and stories[/url].”
    • “Sadly, most of the characters aren't too fleshed out outside of their quests, and there's almost no proper post-quest dialogue for the majority of characters.”
    • “There’s not much of a story, but you, an unemployed apple—aptly named Apple—wake up and summon the courage to touch some grass (this is actually a quest title).”
    • “Finish a fetch quest with one character, to be given an item that finishes another quest for a different character, and so on.”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are characterized by a simple and cutesy aesthetic, featuring lively and colorful artwork that creates a cozy atmosphere. While the visuals are appealing, the limited variety in sound effects can become repetitive for fast readers. Overall, the game successfully combines its charming art style with a lighthearted tone.

    • “The artwork is lively and colorful.”
    • “Visuals are cutesy and very simple, while dialogue isn’t completely voiced. There are many sound effects like 'ohh', 'hmm', 'ahh', 'ooh', etc. They’re mostly voiced by the same character, but if you’re a quick reader and speeding through the text, the symphony of these repeated sounds gets old very quickly.”
    • “The game aesthetic is simple and cute.”
    • “Apple’s busy day has a cute aesthetic and a cozy atmosphere.”

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The gameplay is easy; you just walk around the town, and everyone you meet has a problem for you to resolve.”
    • “Simple, relaxing gameplay.”
    • “But yeah, as with many of these cutesy games, the main draw isn't the gameplay challenge so much as the cast and their dialogue, accompanied by Banjo-Kazooie-esque vocalizations.”
    • “My biggest complaint with regards to gameplay is that while the paths around the island aren't strictly linear, you still have to retread a good chunk of ground, particularly late game (it's still barely over an hour playing suboptimally, so it's not that bad).”
    • “But yeah, as with many of these cutesy games, the main draw isn't the gameplay challenge so much as the cast and their dialogue (accompanied by Banjo-Kazooie-esque vocalizations).”
