The gameplay is characterized by its relaxing and simplistic mechanics, primarily revolving around fishing and gardening, reminiscent of titles like Stardew Valley. Players can choose between casual and challenging fishing modes, making it accessible for various skill levels, though many reviews note the game’s short duration of around 3 to 4 hours and a lack of depth in gameplay mechanics.

- “This is a perfect balance of pixel graphics and relaxing gameplay.”
- “The mechanics are decent and you can play one-handed and drink or eat snacks, and there's no real stakes in any timers or wasted resources if you don't do things optimally, so you could relax and spend a Saturday curled up with a pint playing this.”
- “The art is lovely, the gameplay is fun and interesting enough to stay engaged, but simple enough that anyone could pick it up.”
- “The actual gameplay is: recreate monocultural factory farming because that's more efficient.”
- “The gameplay is almost nonexistent and if you just want to look at some pretty pixel art, there are better and cheaper ways to do so.”
- “I played this for almost an hour and a half, apparently progressed through most of the game in that time period, and spent the last 20+ minutes of my gameplay time growing increasingly bored and disinterested, unfortunately.”

- “Other than the length, the only other downside is there are very few music tracks; the main music that plays is fairly unobtrusive and calming, though I feel like a game such as this could benefit from having one or two other tunes to play in the background.”
