The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting numerous bugs and glitches that significantly impact gameplay, including game-breaking issues encountered shortly after starting. While some players acknowledge the game's potential and enjoy its fun aspects, the overwhelming presence of technical problems, particularly in resource-intensive scenarios, makes it difficult to recommend in its current state. Overall, the consensus is that the game remains too unstable for a satisfactory experience.

“Good graphics and all... still a little buggy but nothing game breaking.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be both engaging and tedious, with some enjoying the realistic farming mechanics and variety, while others face frustrating technical issues, such as control problems and save file corruption after extensive play. Despite these challenges, many appreciate the potential of the game as a solid farming simulator, especially in its early access phase.
“After 7 hours of grinding and growing my savory plant, I reached a point of around 35,000 plants grown in a single field (can be seen as a screenshot on my profile), and the game would not load into my save anymore.”
“Basically get 5 or 6 areas roped off for the indica seeds (seem to need less water/fertilizer), keep farming those until you can buy a tractor and a plough, then it's easy money.”
“The game seems to cut off the use of my mouse and automatically lowers my lighting settings, making the controls tedious.”

The story in this game is criticized for being monotonous and lacking depth, with players expressing frustration over the slow progression and absence of missions or side quests. The gameplay revolves around repetitive tasks of planting and harvesting, leading to a tedious experience that feels disconnected from any engaging narrative. Overall, the lack of exploration and meaningful objectives detracts from the potential for a compelling story.
“This game is so slow and boring. You start off with no money, grow some plants, make a little bit of money, enough to buy less plants than you sold, and then do it all over again. There's no missions or side quests, no exploration bonus. You don't even need to buy the land you start with. The resale value for what you grow is ridiculous; it would take literal real-life weeks to make enough money to buy the tractors and other equipment.”
“The game lacks any engaging story elements. There are no missions or side quests to keep players invested, making the gameplay feel repetitive and tedious.”
“I was stuck on the plant tool and couldn't switch to the watering tool to make my plants grow, which made the experience frustrating and unfulfilling.”

“I reached the peak performance of a weed farmer simulator player.”
“I know that one of the largest barriers for this game is performance; I can run it on my PC, but I'm playing at around 7-15 FPS, so it looks like a slideshow.”
“I will say though I know probably one of the largest barriers for this game is performance. I can run this game on my PC, but I'm playing at around 7-15 FPS, so it looks like a slideshow.”
