For example, the cocoa tree knocking down a ton of other nuts that I don’t need could be moved slightly to avoid it. I prefer to grind all my ingredients and have a bunch I don’t use. Maybe a way to sell off some of the extras? I like to hoard extra potions and pies for the next days, and it’d be a lot easier if there were more spice boxes! My nemesis.. the spice boxes and my need to just have extras for no reason instead of decorating ;-; The decoration options are cute, but you really have to work up to them.. if you don’t get burnt out on repetition and the minor bugs. Especially when the ingredients go missing, and even worse when it’s a spice and the two spice boxes are still on their two minute count down. I love when games don’t limit how much I can actually progress and play. I do also wish there were more pies. At least with the potion orders there’s a little bit more options for what may be requested… and maybe something that lets you prop your cookbook/ingredient list open. My husband compared me to Peter Griffin when I was saying “artichoke, radish, brussel sprouts.” Whoops. ### 4/5 — No background music *2026-09-04, version 1.315* This game is so adorable and calming. The way you make potions to drying out herbs is so well done! The only thing I do have a slight problem with is that there is no background music. For me, personally, I love cute games like these to have music because it just makes them feel more nostalgic. Without it, it honestly kind of has a bit of an eerie feeling to it. ### 3/5 — could've been good.. *2026-08-07, version 1.301* i downloaded this game today , and as a very spiritual woman i really liked the concept , art style , and user interface for this game , i think it is beyond creative so good job on that ! my only complaint , and apparently others too , is the fact that the game is full of small glitches / bugs that really aren't so small at all .. my game glitched in the garden , the items i am planting aren't popping up in my inventory ... this is a waste of coins and COMPLETELY affects the game play .. their last update was 3 days ago but before that it was 2 years ago.. wow ! so that kind of shows you that this developer is most likely aware of all of the bugs in this game and they simply have chosen to be lazy and do the bare minimum to fix what could have been a good game .. so 3 stars . for the art style and the concept , but lost points for the disappointment . looking forward to a better , more recent update . ### 4/5 — 世界観が良き｡だけど文字が… *2026-08-05* こんにちは！初めてレビューさせて頂きます｡ゲームを探していた所､面白そうだなぁと思ってインストールしてみました。遊んでみたところ､所々にゲーム内の文字が大きかったり小さかったり読みづらいのが欠点です｡ 世界観やキャラクター達の絵､ ハーブ作りや依頼のお手紙などをこなしていく作業はとても楽しくプレイ出来ているので是非とも改善をよろしくお願いします｡ ### 5/5 — Cute *2026-07-29, version 1.105* Great to relax with and unwind with but i look forward to seeing what they do in the future with their game! ### 3/5 — no update in two years *2026-07-29, version 1.105* it's quite glitchy ### 4/5 — So fun! So relaxing! *2026-07-29, version 1.105* I love playing this!! The art is amazing and it’s so relaxing. My only issue is the amount of glitching I have experienced, if the glitches were fixed this game would have a 5/5 stars. It is truly lovely. ### 5/5 — :) *2026-07-28, version 1.105* The best most relaxing and atheistic kawaii game ever.so relaxing but could you add a reading corner we’re Olivia reads books with facts and has to write certain facts in a letter and send it to them by owl but before that she has to write an address add a stamp and a name before you give it to your owl (there are multiple owl skins but everybody starts with a snowy one called snowball can change name) and a more descriptive guide for the pie making coz it took me a while to get it also make the furniture more cheap coz I can’t afford it.make some more mini games (like the library reading letter one and Maybe a dining room were Olivia has to make dishes for guests dishes can be found in the recipe book under guest food next to the pie/potion tab) there are 2 bugs first is that when you juice a berry it goes back and forth with the loop de loops before it starts juicing and second is that if you pick a herb/spice/berry and your waiting you go to were you can do stuff to it in the kitchen it’s there but then when you go back to the garden the 2 min timer for picking is still on (pls shorten that timer also it annoyed me before I found the bug) all in all my favourite game play it everyday pls consider my ideas for more people to play your game consider my ideas because me and lots of my friends want more mini games and we came up with these ideas together and we all want them really badly other than the bugs best game ever I will wright more reviews with each new update and give you more ideas bye! Ps: give each player a free black cat called dusk(name editable)because I really want a cat pet but there is none (FREE cat,skin also editable but have to complete tasks from the mini games and potion making to get it same with the owl I mentioned earlier) thank you!pls consider this review. ### 2/5 — Game-breaking bugs on iPhone 16 Pro Max! Completely unplayable. 😡 *2026-07-27* I am extremely disappointed! The game is incredibly cute, with a lovely atmosphere and beautiful art style, but the technical state is just awful. It is physically impossible to complete the pie-baking mini-game on the iPhone 16 Pro Max. The ingredient buttons at the bottom of the screen do not respond to touches at all, causing all the items to fly past.I have tried every single workaround: turning on Guided Access, limiting the frame rate to 60Hz, and restarting the app multiple times — nothing works. The game just burns through tons of hard-earned ingredients that I spent hours collecting, completely blocking any further story progression. It seems the interface is not optimized for new, larger screens at all.I’m giving it 2 stars only for the beautiful concept. Until the developers fix the touch controls and optimize the game for newer devices, playing this is just pure frustration. I do not recommend this to owners of large screens until a fix is released. ### 5/5 — круто! *2026-07-26* очень нравится игра, очень приятная и спокойная, спасибо большое! ### 5/5 — Nice and funny *2026-07-19, version 1.105* Loved this ### 4/5 — Such a cute and fun game *2026-07-18, version 1.105* But I wish they could sort out the glitches a little bit more. Often when I’m planting in the garden I have to exit out the game in order to harvest or water the plants bc it gets stuck ### 5/5 — Amazing and well made! *2026-07-16, version 1.105* It’s such a well made game, theres nothing to complain about. Everything is fun, the recipes and orders are easy to follow, growing the ingredients doesn’t take much time(about 30 seconds), and making the potions and pies is so simple and fun! I still don’t understand the delivery of pies but I’ll get it soon. Its very relaxing and a great game !!! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-07-12, version 1.105* This game is so so cute im addicted!💕💕 ### 5/5 — The sweetest game! *2026-07-08, version 1.105* I absolutely love this game! Perfect wind down from my day, such a cute story with the most relaxing vibe! ### 5/5 — Relaxing easy game! *2026-07-07, version 1.105* I wanted to find something a little witchy and simple in order to just relax and this game has been perfect! Easy to work and no money required no ads is the best part! ### 5/5 — Ну это вообще💔💔💔 *2026-07-06* Игра просто великолепная. Первая игра, где я с удовольствием смотрю рекламу, чтобы поддержать разрабов♥️ ### 4/5 — AMAZING GAME!!! BUT… *2026-07-05, version 1.105* It’s SO fun, and I love the receipt book!!! However, if/when the game freezes and I restart the game, the letters I received changed. It’s a bit annoying but I’m sure it will get fixed soon. ### 5/5 — What I've been waiting for! *2026-07-01, version 1.105* Ive been looking for a game just like this for too long, I'm not sure why it took so long for me to find it but glad I did! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Баги!!! *2026-07-24* Жуткие баги, о которых пишут уже много лет, так и не исправлены. Приятный визуал, но не более. Хотела расслабиться, в итоге только разозлилась, потому что ничего не работает. ### 1/5 — Crashes early in the tutorial *2025-12-03, version 1.105* Downloaded today (12/2/25) and could make it past the garden tutorial. The app freezes in the same place even when you force quit and go back in. What a waste, seemed cute. ### 1/5 — Игра хорошая но! *2025-10-05, version 1.105* Извините конечно у меня морковь не собирается вообще ни в какую. Все гейм Овер чтоль? Баганная игра, много где еще зависает ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2025-03-13, version 1.105* Glitching writhing the first hour of me downloading this game, I also think there’s a lot going on I was expecting a more calming game but there’s actually a lot to do. It’s abit over the top shame as the graphics are amazing and looks like such a cute game but very stressful ### 1/5 — Ayuda *2025-02-08* No sé cómo usar la estufa para los pasteles, le pico a las verduras que es y nadaaa ayudaaaaa😭😭😭 ### 1/5 — баги. *2025-01-08* очень печально, игра с лягушками чудесная. эта багует так, что отбивает желание играть. в печке не ловятся овощи при приготовлении пирогов, также в кофемолке ручка просто тормозится и не крутится, из-за этого переводятся травы, которые заново надо вырастить за деньги, которых итак очень мало. на грядках виснет, не прогружается список трав/ягод и тд. надо выходить и заходить заново, дело в самой игре, телефон новейший, ничего так не виснет. очень обидно. ### 1/5 — Nette Idee, aber *2024-12-22* Leider unspielbar. Zu viele Bugs. Buttons verschwinden einfach oder reagieren nicht mehr. Anleitungen können nicht befolgt werden - wieso auch immer. ### 1/5 — 字体大小不匹配 *2024-11-01* 无论多少文字，文本框的位置被限制后，字多就会变得非常小。什么也看不清。 ### 1/5 — 文字小さすぎ！！ *2024-10-30* デザインがすごく可愛くてゲーム内容も楽しそうだったのでダウンロードしましたが、字幕が小さすぎで読みづらいです！　米粒より小さい…😭 やる気無くしちゃいました。修正お願いします！ ### 1/5 — 英語 *2024-06-30* 日本語に訳して欲しいです。 **Developer response:** Hi! Sorry about this situation. We're working hard to fix it🙏 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love ittt *2026-09-08, version 1.315* As a witch myself I love this game sm it’s so cozy but also has a lot of things to buy and do so keeps you occupied for agesss! The only thing I would love for this game though is more places to plant spices as you need them in almost every recipe. ### 5/5 — My favorite *2026-09-04, version 1.315* Anytime I go on a long train ride or have anytime to myself I play this and and I have for a while! I love this game so much ### 5/5 — Cute fun, and clever! *2026-09-01, version 1.315* This game is so sweet, cleverly crafted, and has a magical feel every time I play it! I’m hooked! ### 5/5 — Милая и красивая игра *2026-08-30* Очень рада, что нашла данную игру! Только начала играть, но уже в восторге:) все на высшем мимишном уровне! ### 5/5 — Пять звезд! *2026-08-28* Игра отличная! но как выращивать овощи? ### 5/5 — 물약 추가 레시피 얻는 법 *2026-08-28* 여러분 이번에 신규 업데이트 되서 물약 페이지도 새로 생기고 구매할 수 있는 물약 종류도 많아졌어요!! 이제 레시피 걱정 안 해도 될 것 같아요 그런데 뒤로 갈수록 물약 가격이 비싸요 ㅠㅠ 그래서 광고 보고 코인을 모으거나 현질 해야 할 듯하네요.. 고정 부탁드려요 ### 5/5 — 💛 *2026-08-27* eu adorei! mas poderia haver novas receitas de tortas e mais espaço para o plantio. ### 5/5 — So cute!! *2026-08-26, version 1.301* I came across this randomly and it’s so amazing! My only issues is the small amount of requests so far, and there are some glitches here and there but i still love it! ### 5/5 — Самое любимое приложение *2026-08-08* Давно не видела таких игр, как будто вернуло в детство ### 5/5 — Amazing game but *2026-08-03* This is an amazing game. I love the look of it and the cozy gameplay, I wish I would have found the game sooner because it looks like the developers abandoned it. The last update’s from 2 years ago and it is in need of some bug fixes. I wish I could watch adds to get some game money and to give the game money too but I can’t exit the add once it’s done. It’s such a shame for a game this good. I hope they do come back to give it some more love. With a little more effort and presence I’m sure it would get bigger!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
