6 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe gameplay is praised for its controls, customization, and overall mechanics, providing a relaxing experience that contrasts with more action-oriented games. However, some users noted issues with the shearing mechanics and the disappearance of trees after periods of inactivity, which, while realistic, can be frustrating.

“My only cons are the shearing mechanics and my tree disappeared after I was inactive for 4 days, but I guess that is kind of realistic.”
