The game's story is criticized for being minimal and lacking depth, with many players feeling that the daycare aspect and quests are poorly integrated and often frustrating. While the environments are enjoyable to explore, the absence of a compelling narrative and the presence of technical issues hinder the overall experience. Players express a desire for a more engaging storyline and clearer quest mechanics to enhance gameplay.
“I like how there's different environments to explore, and they give you the option to do just the story quests or do more farming-type quests if you prefer.”
“There are certain areas of the map that are locked until you complete specific quests to unlock them, which limits your world exploration until you complete the quests.”
“While the missions are engaging, I could spend hours just hugging clouds!”
“Unfortunately, the daycare aspect barely mattered, as you could ignore all clouds not directly related to the story.”
“Considering the game doesn't really have a storyline, the cutscenes don't really add anything to the game.”
“The storytelling is severely lacking.”

Players appreciate the game's laid-back approach to grinding, allowing them to choose between story quests and farming activities, which enhances the overall experience. The cute aesthetics and relaxed gameplay make it a perfect fit for fans of the farming sim genre, although some express frustration with unnecessary mechanics that detract from the enjoyment. Overall, it offers a satisfying balance for those who prefer a slower-paced gaming experience.
“So it's especially soul crushing when I can't even play a simple farming game because the developers inexplicably insist on forced first-person in a game that doesn't even warrant it.”
“I've made my peace with never being able to play shooters or driving games, but a cute farming game?”
“It's a great game for chill and relax, perfect for you if you like to take it slow in farming games like Slime Rancher and that stuff, I was personally hoping for a good game of this genre since a lot of time has passed.”
