5 mentions Positive Neutral NegativePlayers find the grinding aspect of Island Berry to be confusing, unintuitive, and tedious, often feeling that it lacks adequate guidance for newcomers to the survival farming genre. While it may appeal to dedicated fans of the genre, many reviewers note that the game struggles to balance challenge with monotony, making the grinding experience feel more like a chore than an engaging part of gameplay.
“I found it confusing, unintuitive, and tedious.”
“Island Berry at certain angles has the look of a good survival farming sim; however, it expects the player to know the foundations of games of the genre with little to no help, which deters new players.”
“There's also a difference between a game being challenging and being tedious; Island Berry doesn't really understand the difference.”
