I love this game as a little wind-down, especially the chance to incorporate a lot of low-stakes strategy, optimization, and sorting of your garden and other things. I so love when there’s a chance to make a little system out of a game like this. I like that you can fully play the game without ads if you choose, and that it has a double tap system for certain things that prevents accidental clicks, I think overall the game is really well thought through and while I don’t really care much for the storyline I can see how it would appeal to younger kids especially. My only critiques would be that it would be nice for flower petals to show up in the inventory which it doesn’t seem like they do, and I don’t like the meals gifting with the two characters. It doesn’t really add to the game since they just have like two canned responses each, and I find it annoying when the notification shows up on the map to give them something, so I find myself trying to avoid interacting with that part of the game.

Thanks for the 5 stars. We love that you enjoy ad-optional play and the double tap. Your notes on showing flower petals in inventory and on meal gifting prompts are super helpful. You can ignore those prompts if you prefer. Happy gardening and exploring 🐝

Neutral; Idle depends on your definition!

True idle games continue to earn while offline, this game? You can send critters to do tasks but in my opinion I don’t consider them true idle games. It truly depends on your idea of “idle” gaming & I would say majority of idle gamers wouldn’t consider this as idle (imo idle being where a game will build resources while away cuz they stop like the bees don’t continue collecting etc the projects continue (like ud expect from majority of games in general but to be true idle? No you have to come & collect cuz they have a max limit) I’m gonna give 3/5⭐️only cuz I just started so staying as neutral as possible & 2.5 isn’t possible. I like that there’s a storyline (in a comic/role play format. Love that. Not sure how to describe it). Comparing this to their other games like hatch dragons & bird kind. It’s cute, as a beginner, I’m willing to give it a chance. Easy, laid back game play, again I’m hung up on “idle” cuz not sure if I would consider an idle game since there’s a need to be a bit present? My review doesn’t make much sense even to me & I’m playing but I suggest trying. It might not ‘bee the buzz’ for everyone but it’s cute simplistic nature might hit the hive for others. Also there’s a sorta goal? Complete the map style? When I think true idle games I think they continue making the resources while player(s) are offline, their games require visitation in order for progression & thats likely why I don’t consider them as true idle games 🐝😘. I’m hung up on the term idle in case you can’t tell. Give it a chance, I always suggest trying for a month before considering stopping but if you know it’s not for you then you’ll know & likely not download in first place. I will admit progression hasn’t been too bad so far.

Thanks for such a thoughtful review! 🐝 You raise a fair point about the "idle" label. Resources do have a cap and require your input, so we totally understand if it doesn't fit your definition. We hope it still wins you over as you progress. Give it that month! 😊

It isn’t perfect, but I sort of have an addiction to my phone and fast paced things, and I think that’s why I would say it isn’t perfect. So technically, it’s perfect! It doesn’t bombard you with ads. It’s relaxing. The developers are amazing. I’ve downloaded every game from them, thanks to the announcements in most of their games also! They aren’t pushy to demand your money, the games have amazing graphics and designs. This game is incredibly relaxing and has realistic flowers and is super cute! It still allows you to play it without waiting hours for it to be ready so you can check on it again. Definitely play this game. Especially if you struggle with games that don’t please you aesthetically, aren’t satisfying, and you can’t continue in after a few hours of gameplay!
