Critic Reviews
Summer in Mara Review
While Summer in Mara is a game with a lot of heart; its gameplay is a bit too monotonous to be enjoyable for even diehard fans of games like Harvest Moon.
65%Review – Summer in Mara
I wanted to enjoy Summer in Mara, but with gameplay consisting of little more than trading quests, I was left disappointed with such a mediocre performance at best.

Summer in Mara is farming and crafting sim with a lovely message around sustainability. It features some beautiful Ghibli-esque visuals and strong character writing, but ultimately descends into endless, over-lapping fetch quests with a lack of direction that make it more of a chore than the relaxing experience it promises.
