The story in "Solitaire Quest: Garden Story" is described as light and charming, providing a pleasant backdrop to the gameplay. Players appreciate the integration of a narrative with the solitaire mechanics, as well as the opportunity to build a garden using tokens earned through the game. Overall, it offers a cute and engaging experience for those who enjoy solitaire.
“I enjoyed this game for several reasons: it's a good solitaire game with 200 levels, a story, and a garden to build with the tokens you earn.”
“If you enjoy solitaire and are looking for a cute story to go along with it, I would suggest getting this game.”
“There is a light story to accompany the game, and you can access the in-game shop to purchase extra undos, jokers, wild cards, shuffles, double coins, and removal of a card (selected or random) at any point in the level.”
“Solitaire Quest: Garden Story is yet another generic +1/-1 card game that doesn't offer anything new. It was supposed to be a welcome change after the endless lazy Suricate (Jewel Match) and 8Floor reskins, if they even bother to change the skin at all.”
“There is a light story to accompany the game, but it feels minimal and doesn't add much depth to the overall experience.”
“While the game has a cute story, it ultimately fails to engage players who are looking for a more substantial narrative.”

The music in the game has been criticized for its repetitive nature due to a short loop, leading some players to opt for silence while engaging in other activities. Overall, it seems to detract from the gaming experience for those who find it unappealing.
“I personally didn't like the music, especially with such a short loop it became way too repetitive.”
“I ended up playing the game with no music while I watched football on TV (divided attention of course but relaxed mode made this easy).”

The game's optimization is criticized for having deliberately slow animations during level layouts, leading to claims of it having the worst performance among solitaire games, despite functioning well on more recent hardware.
“Tried it on more recent hardware, no problem there (except for deliberately slow animations when levels get laid out), but it still gets the award for worst performance in a solitaire ever.”
