    104 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game is characterized by its cute art style and engaging mechanics, though players often find the controls and food management challenging at first.

    • “I bought the game back in August 2020 and now, March 2023, after 28 hours of gameplay and probably a lot more than 20 failed save files, I still haven't beaten the game once.”
    • “Mechanics need flushing out and refining.”
    • “They are committed to releasing these games on a regular schedule, so it doesn't matter whether they have a decent idea or not, or whether the gameplay really works or not - they have to release it and move on to the next thing.”

    • “As long as the graphics and UI are serviceable and the amount of content/playtime matches the price point, everything else is window dressing.”

  • grinding
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessively tedious and time-consuming, often requiring repetitive tasks like farming and micromanaging hunting strategies.

    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”

    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “There's a decent amount of replayability here if you're achievement chasing or just want to try different strategies.”
    • “Fun little game, all the charm of building your village in Age, but better than Age 4 in terms of balance and replayability.”
  • stability
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game exhibits notable stability issues, including buggy pathfinding and ineffective wall mechanics, which detract from the overall experience.

Despite these flaws, some players find it enjoyable and affordable, though many recommend seeking better alternatives.

    • “Runs great on PC, providing a stable and smooth gaming experience.”

  • music
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with some users noting the absence of a pause button and the lack of an option to turn off the music. While the soundtrack is described as "not too bad," there are complaints about the minimalistic approach to music and sound design. Overall, the art and music are appreciated, but the implementation leaves room for improvement.

    • “If FTL had super-minimal graphics and music, one ship and only three levels worth of content, but it only cost three dollars, it would still have been a smash hit.”

    • “Nice art, and music.”
    • “There's not even a pause button or option to turn off the music.”

    • “Working out the mechanics is fun, and the few game events show great humor.”
    • “And dying many times was also funny.”
    • “Funny little micro-managing game.”
  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant optimization issues, particularly at higher population levels and when resources are enclosed, leading to stuttering and lag even on capable hardware. Players have reported frame rates dropping to as low as 7 fps under default settings, indicating a need for improved performance adjustments. Despite these challenges, the game retains enjoyable elements and a charming aesthetic.

    • “It has so many of the things I like about the genre, discovery through play, adaptive optimization challenges, etc. all in a nice small package with the great Sokpop aesthetic.”
    • “The game could really use some better optimization because the default settings cause my pretty good computer to play it at 7 fps, and even with the settings changed at day 5, it starts to randomly lag.”
    • “It's enjoyable and even has a tiny story, though there are some performance issues when you go near pop.30 (which is high) or when there's a resource enclosed by walls (the agents try to pathfind to it and there's no way in), which makes the game stutter every time someone considers going there.”
