This game is literally one of my favorite games of all time, along with the second game, this wraps up everything perfectly. In fact, this game felt like several different games all together that if you told me they were I'd believe you, and how all of the stories cross over and make you think, I really love it. Just as I said for EP2, I still think about this game to this day and feel like I have every bit committed to memory. This game shaped me as a person, helped me improve and made me really think about aspects of myself.

I am convinced that the people who rate this game low for specifically "being boring and having nothing to do" just speedran it. I just finished the game and it is extremely well-paced for a cozy game. If you call this game a "slog to get through", I am convinced you are better off playing Hollow Knight or maybe a rouge-like. Cozy games, especially one that ISN'T a stardew rip-off, from a company that HASN'T GOTTEN A LOCALIZATION IN TEN YEARS! We literally need to embrace cozy games that are NOT ripping off stardew, I am so serious!

Anyways, I otherwise understand the complaints over the controls and fonts as those are accessibility issues, and the map is easy to get lost in but this is honestly SUCH charming game and was worth the $20 (if you manage to snag this on sale). It lived up to a lot of the hopes I had before playing it for 2 years and I was NOT disappointed. I suggest getting this game as it is an absolute gem.
