This satisfies me. It's a mobile game, it's expected to be limiting for a short amount of time. I enjoy the 15-20 minutes of gameplay I can achieve every 3 hours. It's a very passive game. The music is soothing, however I would love there to be more, it's the same song throughout unless you're visiting the Happy Home Academy or the birds. The amount of items you can craft and collect are huge.
I have not spent a single dollar on this game. My strategy is to save your leaf tickets for maps and extremely limited items.
