The story in the game continues from its predecessor but is criticized for being underdeveloped and lacking depth, with many quests feeling like repetitive fetch tasks rather than meaningful interactions. Players find the character development flat and the quest instructions often confusing, leading to frustration. While the game has potential and offers a variety of quests, the overall narrative experience is hampered by design flaws and a lack of engaging gameplay mechanics.
- “It continues the story from the last game.”
- “I ended up enjoying the world so much that I barely touched the main story, but I've already flown all over the main island - and there is a lot to explore!”
- “It's early access, so there's some things you can't do yet like enter houses, and some of the quests could use a bit more guidance, like trying to talk to the animals.”
- “The characters are flat and you are sent on endless fetch quests in the hopes of surpassing the 2-hour refund point before you realize there is no vibrant world, just a sandbox with reused assets from their previous title: Everdream Valley that they abandoned.”
- “I know this game is not a Story of Seasons or a Harvest Moon or a Stardew Valley, but this game is clearly undercooked and lacking severely in any meaningful quality assurance to tell the developer obvious pain points in design.”
- “Some of the instructions for the quests are confusing.”

Gameplay in this title offers a unique transformation mechanic that allows players to interact with animals, enhancing the experience. However, many users express frustration with the lack of a satisfying gameplay loop and unclear mechanics, particularly regarding quests and resource management. While the game shows promise with ongoing improvements and a charming atmosphere, it still requires significant refinement to meet player expectations.
- “I love how you can transform into the dog and talk to the animals; it adds a whole new level to the gameplay.”
- “The dev team is very quickly addressing bugs and improving gameplay daily.”
- “Cute and nice mix of light narratives with pleasant, relaxing gameplay.”
- “Other than breeding disability, I haven't found any negative impact to not feeding the animal members of your town, although I disagree with saying they are members of the town, then you put them all in pens. I give the game a firm 80% even in early access, but it still has some important mechanics to work through.”
- “If the hope is this game can be turned around before coming out of early access with the promise of new islands and new animals/NPCs without addressing the core gameplay loop, then you are better off setting sail for a different gaming adventure.”
- “The gameplay nor the material tells you that you have to sleep with the materials in your inventory to build a house, which makes no sense.”

- “Art style can sometimes feel too childish but running around and collecting your future farm animals is a lot of fun, as well as the new cooking!”
- “Recommend for people that have been missing a 3rd person cozy harvesting village, open world game and don't mind the art style of the characters (personally hope they'll get a bit more detailed and drawn art portraits during dialogue).”

The game's stability is notably affected by various bugs, particularly during terraforming, which can lead to significant framerate drops and clipping issues. While some users acknowledge these problems as typical for early access titles, the overall experience is marred by unclear quests and persistent glitches.

- “Really buggy and some quests aren't clear.”
- “After playing a very buggy Everdream Valley, I don't know what I expected with this game.”

- “The farming and exploration are good, and I like them, but good crops can’t fix bad design or disrespectful defaults.”
- “You will spend more time doing quests to lead you along, seemingly in the hopes of progress, before you realize there is no real satisfying gameplay loop to expect from a farming sim nor a numbers min/max buildup from a management game.”
