    The reviews highlight that the grinding aspect of this farming sim is relatively light and accessible, making it enjoyable even for those fatigued by the genre.

    • “I took a long sabbatical from farming games because I just had a general fatigue of the whole oversaturated genre.”
    • “I think you shouldn't buy this expecting a fully fledged farming sim with all the bells and whistles and depth of something like Stardew Valley's 1.0 release, but something more farm sim-lite with a heavier emphasis on the characters.”
    • “If you're a sweaty try-hard gacha player, farming in this game is a breeze; it's so easy to understand, and power creep is decent.”

  • story
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in the game is considered decent for a farming title, featuring delivery quests for short-term goals and seasonal objectives for longer-term engagement. However, many players feel a lack of attachment to the narrative and characters, suggesting that while the story is not fully developed, it may improve over time, particularly for those unfamiliar with the Touhou universe. Overall, the narrative aspect is seen as secondary to the gameplay experience.

    • “Delivery quests provide short-term goals and direction, while seasonal goals provide longer-term objectives to pursue.”
    • “The reason I mention this as a complicated matter, rather than a negative point outright, is that it's something that may only be a problem for those who are looking for an engaging story, who simultaneously have no exposure to Touhou.”
    • “The story is not very fleshed out at the moment, but in general it is quite decent for a farming game.”
    • “Namely, I don't feel any strong attachment to the story, the world, or its characters, and I'm not sure if that will change as time goes on.”
    • “Story-light early access or not, I am definitely enjoying the collection and learning process.”
