    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the artistic design and charm, likening it to a living artwork, while others criticize the visuals as lacking polish and experiencing lag.

    • “This is a beautiful description and you should go into the game not thinking this is a true-to-life bonsai simulator, but an artwork generator where you are the artist and you can create your own living bonsai sculpture.”
    • “Controls are bad, graphics aren't great, and I am overall very unsatisfied.”
    • “The simulator lags all the time and the graphics department needs improvements as well.”

    The gameplay of Panguojun's games is characterized by minimalistic design and unique concepts, offering a mix of short and longer experiences.

    • “It's incredibly beautiful in a minimalistic way, and the gameplay is addictive, rewarding, and relaxingly simple.”

    • “I haven't played all of his 9 games yet, only 3 including this one, but I think Panguojun or Romeosoft, whatever his real name is, is a master at making minimalistic games with unique ideas that others don't make. However, the gameplay is very short.”
    • “The first game I played of his was Black Hole Simulator, which I liked because I love space games, but that game was literally 5 minutes long and it was laggy for some reason.”
    • “For the gameplay, I have nothing to do and I am bored while waiting for a season to change (so that the tree will grow).”
