I didn't really like this. It's essentially a mix of "gardening" (read: put down flowers/structures on a small patch of grass) and a bunch of mini games. None of it is done particularly well, it's all very clunky and semi-broken. In between there's exercises to relax with (like breathing exercises etc.) that you're definitely not in the mood for after getting annoyed at the game mechanics - or maybe that's precisely why they're there. The story is uncreative ("meet different characters and invite them to your patch of land") and over in less than an hour. Plus the shallow "gardening" or very few mini games don't give any more incentive to continue. And for god's sake, I just can't take any game/story seriously that has the writing of a 12 year old. Who the heck uses emojis and abbreviations like "btw" in their game dialogue? And the loading times, don't get me started on the loading times. From the 1 1/2 hours of total playtime I have, at least half an hour was spent in loading screens. Not only because they take forever but also because the game frequently freezes during the loading screens and you don't find out until …

From the 1 1/2 hours of total playtime I have, at least half an hour was spent in loading screens. Not only because they take forever but also because the game frequently freezes during the loading screens and you don't find out until you waited waaaaay too long (after all, all the previous loading screens also took very long so you just have to wait a bit more, right?). There's no movement or indicator whether it's still loading or froze. And they want 15 € for this mess. Yeah, no. I'm not refunding because I think the devs tried to send a nice message and genuinely wanted to make a relaxing game but if I had payed anything more than 3 bucks, I would have refunded.
