Adorable and fun
I love how simple and adorable it is. Perfect thing to do in my spare time
It’s great but one issue
It’s a really fun game and I wanna keep playing it but the energy restores really slowly and you use it really quickly, which means I play for a minute and wait a few hours to be able to do anything again. If energy restore was reduced from 2 minutes to 30 seconds or I can buy energy more easily (but just the one energy box that restores each day), it would be more fun

Beautiful, but too complicated
There is so much potential in this game. The little cottage/land you are renovating is so adorable and the concept is great.
However, the matching board part of the game is way too complicated. It’s too hard to figure out what items come from which bucket. Some are color coded, but others aren’t. Too many different pieces coming from too many types of buckets. The items that come out aren’t necessarily related to each other. It’s too hard to figure out which bucket makes what item, especially if there’s a secondary bucket like first making seed bags then making flowers. Then some buckets are too similar. Like, there are the seed bags that make flowers, but then there’s also a tree that gives off seeds that does what exactly?? And just too many types of items overall, especially to start out with. Usually games start with a few buckets and then add more later, so you can figure out what they do without being overwhelmed. I’ve played other similar games and never felt they were too complicated. I currently play Longleaf Valley, and they’ve done a good job of making the board comprehensible if you want an example of what I’m talking about.
And also, while the cottage part of the game is pretty and light, the matching board is drab and dark. I just found I didn’t enjoy spending time on the matching board, which is most of the game. I’ve personally stopped playing after a few days because although I love the cottage part, I just dislike the matching part (usually my favorite part of the game). Still, I’ll rate it 5 stars because there is huge potential and it looks like this game is new with few reviews so I want to leave a good rating for the first written review to encourage you. I would absolutely love to love this game and I’ll keep it and check back in periodically.
