- “Now for Weed Shop 2: basically the same as the previous generation, PC-tuned graphics still aren't mind-blowing, but they're decent enough and bearable.”

The reviews highlight a mixed reception regarding the grinding aspect of the game.

Suggestions for improvement include reducing grind intensity and enhancing customization options to make the experience more engaging.

- “Unfortunately, I just didn't feel up to spending hours on end doing the same tedious tasks to grind for XP so I can enjoy all the content the game has to offer.”
- “I'm so annoyed by how grindy this game turned out to be... I'm fine with working my way up, it's fun but we can't re-use watering bottles, staff costs tons of money and gets more expensive with time (why? makes no sense) and if you ever manage to make some money and get good reputation you get 3 or 4 people within 5 minutes who decide not to pay so you have to punch them and lose all your reputation and so on... just really didn’t see this coming when I started playing or I would not have racked up this many hours and returned it after an hour...”
