i started playing on android in about 2020, moved to nintendo switch, and then dropped it (almost) indefinitely when i ended up inevitably getting bored. it's a grindy dress-up simulator that happens to also have a really beautiful story about environmental destruction if you pay close attention
the social functions are better than i've seen in most video games. it's heavy on consent - you can't even see people's avatars without them agreeing to let you look at them. but like any other social video game i'd recommend playing it with people you already know, because the playerbase skews pretty young and not only that, it ends up being kind of clique-y and therefore lonely. if you find someone who's willing to talk to a complete stranger chances are they're really fucking weird and might harass you in some way (been there, dealt with that)
... also the in-app purchases are kind of insanely priced. it's like 14 dollars for a little accessory on your character and if you don't buy it, it's gone. this game would be really magical if the developers didn't need to price things like that due to the state of the game industry. this wouldn't be as much of an issue if there were more things to do besides customizing your avatar.
despite all the negative stuff i have to say about it the game's charm heavily outweighs my criticisms. even on a lower-end device it still manages to be really pretty and any bugs that happen (that don't result in the player taking damage, but those get patched out quickly anyways) just end up being funny
(also honestly its popularity with kids is something i'm fine with because it's slow paced and isn't designed around being an overstimulating slot machine. i just wish the chat filter was at least a bit better)
edited out some redundant bits because i got really bad about mindlessly rambling in this one

I played this when it came to the Switch and started replaying it when it came to Steam. For the gameplay loop, it's only entertaining 3 times with the second time having some new stuff and the third time you can just explore more. The most fun you're going to have in this game is the social aspect. I'm not the most social person so I played this without talking with anyone and after the second loop I didn't enjoy it that much. Now I try to meet people, and it's probably the most fun part of the game.
Tão bom quanto journey, muito relaxante e com uma história boa, áreas belas e grandes, OST incrível, além de atualizações e eventos constantes recomendo se gostar de cozy games
An absolutely beautiful game that I believe everyone must experience. I completed this game with an absolute stranger and it ended up being one of the most memorable moments I've ever had in gaming.
Played the pc version, needs polishing but overall a really chill and beautiful world, the gameplay loop is a bit fun buy you can get bored easily. Overall a good calm, relaxing game
Journey was almost a thing.
This is a thing.
A complete thing.
Only love can be found in here, there is no pain in this place, and everything looks cute.
Prices are fucking high for every single cosmetic, not that I mind that much, but damn 20 bucks for a cape.
