The reviews highlight a mixed experience with grinding in this farming game.

Overall, the game is appreciated for its cute graphics and simple mechanics, making it a decent option for fans of the genre looking for a light, idle experience.

There's a time-based building system like in many RTS games on the store, and that's when I stopped playing. It seems like a massive waste of time and an opportunity to rip people off with 'pay to progress faster.'”
