“Very fun idle game with a lot of gameplay elements outside of said idle, so it's enjoyable even when progress slows later on.”
“Like a lot of idle games, it's based around a cycle of restarting your world over and over to get better and better rewards, but the upgrades are intuitive and the mechanics are fun.”

The monetization model of the game is largely praised for its optional ads and non-predatory in-app purchases, allowing players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money. While some users express a desire for a one-time purchase option to remove ads entirely, many appreciate the absence of forced ads and the overall smooth gameplay experience. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as a positive aspect, balancing free play with optional enhancements.
“I would gladly pay $20 for your games, but make them ad-free and in-app purchase free.”
“No ads, unless you click the ads for a reward; unusual but easy enough. Quite cute too! Love collecting the pets, so addicted. Also, I learned what things are; I now know what a sonograph and an astrolabe are. Love it!”
“No ads, cute and quirky game to keep my fingers busy.”
“It is an ad riddled cash grab like every other app on the planet.”
“I made a few in-app purchases...but the magic is just gone.”
“Fun out the gate, but gets where progress feels very slow and you're just slogging through so many ads with diminishing returns.”

“The character designs are unique and visually appealing, adding a lot of personality to the gameplay.”
“The art style is beautifully crafted, making every scene a visual delight.”
“If it is a kids' game, then it would be doing a decent job at what it wants to do, but the art style of the game and how the characters look are not the best either.”
“The UI is hectic; graphics and lines of text overlap themselves, so even if you want to try to follow along, you can't.”
