What players say
This game oddly hooked me and deserves a nice review. I don't really know what exactly about this game made me tick, but it did. Also feels extremely nostalgic to play like I'm being sucked back into 2009, I will always hold this game fondly by my heart
I own the Switch version of this game but had to stop playing it on it because the graphics were crapping out on me since Switch 1 couldn't handle it. I did update to the Switch 2 and that was a lot better, but I was still missing the shooting stars. I've had this game in my library for years and started playing it again recently. Altogether I actually have 200+ hours to this game. This game is a lot of collecting...
There's a ton of bugs in this game. The hitboxes to interact with harvestables often don't work properly. The economy is badly balanced and make this a grindfest. It's obvious in just 80mins that there isn't much story or variety in quests.
