The reviews highlight that the grinding aspect of the game involves repetitive and tedious tasks, such as plowing and sowing, which can feel overwhelming, especially in the early stages of career mode. While some players appreciate the game's realistic approach to farming, many express disappointment in the lack of engaging gameplay and interesting decisions, comparing it unfavorably to established titles like Farming Simulator. Overall, the grinding experience is seen as a significant drawback, making the game less appealing for those seeking a more dynamic farming simulation.
“Dry career mode: work your ass off to pay debt, therefore dozens of repetitive tedious jobs of plowing, cultivating, and sowing.”
“Gameplay felt really tedious.”
“Aside from that, I thought I'd learn something about farming, but this doesn't give any form of 'farming fantasy' and has such generic activities that it doesn't feel real - sure the large scale monoculture repetitiveness is realistic, but where are the interesting decisions?”
