  • Has potential, but very little content.

    For a paid clicker game, I expect a lot more. I’ve played plenty of free clicker games which can be relaxing, but incredibly complex with the methods to optimize production at the same time. Of course you can do some of that here, but it’s incredibly limited. Most of the game is just artificially dragged out with long timers and high upgrade costs that require you to manually tap for hours, or just collect what is automatically gained for 4 days till you can buy something. Progress shouldn’t be too easy, but you never really feel like you’ve achieved a high production rate. On top of that, the main acorn currency becomes almost useless after a certain point, so you just wait 6-12 hours for diamond trees to grow and for fish from the simple mini-game to cook so you can sell them for diamonds. At least the art style‘s pleasant though.

  • Not worth the time or worth being paid

    Truth be told, I was all in for this game, especially with it being a small price for 0 ads.

    I wish it had been free so I could just delete it like the other idle clicker games on here.

    I played for a little over an hour, and maxed out my scavengers and trees and it just became slow to progress. Getting bored, I rid myself of the game and tried to request a refund. I was ineligible so I went to download it again, knowing I had enabled cloud saving and nope- I have to restart from scratch.

    Majorly upsetting that your backup either didn’t work or was unclear about needing more time than what it shows to truly back up and save the game. For 1.99 I wasn’t expecting much but FarmRPG is a far better game, for free, with no ads. So I’d recommend filling your time with that instead of paying for this game.

  • Not much to it, very slow start

    I can tell you from starting this game, the gains are trash for a long time. You will basically build up to a point of about a million acorns per hour of offline gains. And that’s that, you will have a single moment to purchase a single upgrade, and that’s a wrap. You will spend less than 5 mins per hour collecting offline gains and maybe you can afford 1 upgrade and maybe this is the hour to collect the premium currency you cooked up. And on that note, there isn’t even a premium or iap store.

    Not sure where the dev is going with this game but they better get on it, things don’t gain slow traction in this world anymore, they live and they die. Better get with the times on this one.

  • This is More Like It

    It’s the simplicity and the music for me. I can’t say enough about this game. I’m surprised i got hooked on it. It takes the resource building thing in a lot of games these days, adds one song, a couple of mini games, and the simplest graphics you’ve never seen then makes one of the most addictive and refreshing games I’ve played. No cash grab annoyances here, it’s freeee! (The refreshing part). At least try it, you may hate it or it might become your next favorite

  • Pleasant, fun, cryptic

    I have been playing this game for a couple months now. It’s fun, relaxing, and pleasant to look at. It seems self explanatory at first. But there is a lot of hidden mess and cryptic understanding on what your suppose to do next especially as you unlock the camp ground. I don’t know what each animal does before hand and it’s hard to know how to plan crafting when I don’t fully know what I’m getting. Even with the in game guide it’s not always clear what you are suppose to do or how things work. I get it’s an idle game without a paywall and I really appreciate that, but eventually your gonna be waiting days to unlock things in the late game. All in all, it’s still enjoyable and relaxing. I definitely will continue to play . But more clarity would be nice.

  • Pretty fun

    I like that there are no ads or in app purchases but you get to a point where you have to collect acorns for multiple minutes before you are able to buy an upgrade and that it just seems like a waste of time. I still love this game.
  • A manageable addiction

    This has become the nicotine patch of idle games for me. Some other reviews have complained about its slow burn, or that you can’t speed it up much through a bunch of manual interaction, but that has become one of the things I appreciate the most. It doesn’t cause me to get into the usual idle game cycle of getting addicted, spending way to much time on it, and eventually deleting it in a moment of sobering self reflection. It doesn’t give that massive dopamine rush like other games, but thank goodness for that. It is fun, deeper than it first appears, and completely supports checking in from time to time and then leaving without a nagging tug to go back right away.

  • Good balance

    Fun game and definitely worth the money, no in app purchases creates a more genuine experience. Multiple layers of worlds to unlock that will take many days on end. Definitely a good amount of idle automation and activities in game to manage. Fairly simple game, but maybe that’s what makes it enjoyable and a balanced casual experience. Check in from time to time and you might be surprised what you discover. 4/5 stars because it’s more on the casual end and could use a few updates with more achievements and so on. Definitely worth a play though 👍

  • Really fun and nice to look at!

    One of the best idle games I’ve played. Definitely more of a slow burn than most. The art style is simple and refreshing with nice use of color.

    Tap registration on moving items (fish, spiders, etc.) is very poor and I’ll often have to tap the same thing multiple times (and sometimes still miss it, you don’t have much time). This stands out as being the only frustrating thing here.

    Otherwise I really like it!

  • Disappointing

    I really, really want to like this game. Unfortunately the progression system is way too slow to be enjoyable.
