βGraphics are... fine, I guess?β
βUgly graphics and way too many video ads.β

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some users praising it as good, while others criticize it for lacking advertised mechanics and being heavily interrupted by ads. Many players express frustration over the misleading nature of the game's promotion and the intrusive ad experience, detracting from their overall enjoyment.
βGood gameplay!β
βAlso, this might just be me not wanting to keep playing much further, but only half of the advertised mechanics are actually in the game.β
βThe gameplay is terrible too.β
βI gave it a one star because it was nothing like the ad, and there are way too many ads. They should not put actual gameplay in the ad because you just tricked me into downloading something, and I did not like that.β

The humor in the game is characterized by its quirky and absurd elements, particularly the amusingly unrealistic appearances of the animals and the playful combinations players can create, such as merging bovine with manure. Users find the game both adorable and genuinely funny, often highlighting its "injected" humor and whimsical scenarios, which contribute to an overall enjoyable experience.
βSuper super funny and it's awesome, but the thing that's funny is because all the animals look weird.β
β(this is 'injected' humor btw!) so if you merge bovine and manure, what do you get?β
βHonestly, I love everything about this game. All I know is it's adorable and funny, like a growing kitten that's purple. πΈπ±β

βThe story is captivating and keeps you engaged throughout the entire game.β
βI was drawn into the narrative and found myself invested in the characters and their journeys.β
βThe quests are well-written and offer a rich experience that enhances the overall gameplay.β
βYou will not get what you see in the ads, end of story.β
βI gave it two stars because I was trying my best to make my own story, but I couldn't stop following the quest. I would really like it if I could do it on my own and create my own characters.β
