The gameplay is described as barebones and simplistic, focusing primarily on managing crops and gold within a limited timeframe of four seasons. Players can complete the game and achieve all accomplishments in just an hour or two, with the mechanics revolving around making three action choices each season. The presence of an overpowered mechanic, the immortal dictator, can lead to inflated scores and a lack of challenge.
- “It's simple enough that the only important numbers are the crops and gold, so you know when to adjust the base gameplay loop.”
- “The whole gameplay has been experienced in a single year (i.e. 4 season-turns).”
- “The mechanics are simple: every season (spring, summer, autumn, winter) you must choose how to spend three actions.”
- “The gameplay feels barebones, lacking depth and complexity.”
- “To potential buyers, whether or not you choose to rush through the game like I did, you're likely only looking at an hour or two worth of gameplay time to both finish the game and score all its achievements.”
- “The immortal dictator feels a lot like a broken mechanic, as by the time I set my mind to actually trying to finish the game, I'd obtained a ludicrously high score.”

The graphics in the game are widely criticized for their poor quality, featuring amateurish artwork that detracts from the overall experience. The lack of professional assets and customization options, such as resolution adjustments, further diminishes the visual appeal, leading many players to find the visuals unappealing and off-putting.
- “The artwork here, what little of it there is, is terrible; it's a hodgepodge of amateurish 'my first Wacom tablet' style drawings used instead of professional-looking game assets.”
- “It's unclear if this is due to a lack of budget to hire someone who can create graphical assets properly, or a lack of talent. Regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low, enough on its own to deter gamers.”
- “There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”

The game's music has been criticized for its lack of proper audio controls, forcing players to use external methods to mute it. Additionally, the soundtrack is described as unfitting, featuring harsh string sounds that detract from the overall experience.
- “Bewilderingly, the game doesn't include proper audio controls, so you can't turn off the annoying background music. You'll need to alt+tab out and stop the music using the Windows sound mixer.”
- “Even the soundtrack is not very fitting; it's a string track with very harsh sounds.”
