This game is a pleasant life sim, with growing flowers and making potions as the source of income to buy decorations for your house, shop and garden. At the moment, it’s more decorating than farming, but I hope the developers continue to invest time and passion in the game to expand its repertoire.

I like this game, it's nice ON PAPER, but I accidentally spent all the gold I accumulated over several real life months on 5 chests because:
1. When you buy an item, there is no additional confirmation check or visual cue that you already made the purchase. I think some part of the UI should shake or glow or a blinking arrow / key should appear or something.
2. I don't think there's any NPC that you can sell items to? Or I just haven't figured that out yet.
3. I thought the game only saved when you use the bed. BUT NO, sleeping only a) respawns plants all over the areas and b) if you use the bed enough the preferred potions of customers will occasionally change. If you made a mistake with your gold you will find that it is not undoable.
4. You can place furniture but I cannot figure out if it's possible to relocate them.
5. The gold I accumulated hadn't even reached the point of being able to buy the cheapest plot of land. It's already a simplistic game that tries to be nothing but relaxing, HOWEVER I'm not a big fan of the mechanic wherein your shop/house gradually breaks down on nearly a day by day basis and you sell your potions at a lower price because of it. I don't think I'll ever get to do the actual gardening at this rate.
I'd love for some improvements to be made.

Cute, chill, and relaxing. I just wish there was more to it. You only get, roughly, four areas to explore. Now, I say "Roughly" because the cave is just too tiny. There aren't that many potions to discover either, but I suppose that makes shop keeping a bit easier with a smaller inventory.
Speaking of inventory, one of my biggest complaints is if I forget to empty my inventory, any item from plants and/or potion brewing is just gone to the void.
Second complaint is the camera in this game. It feels so wonky and it is so easy to accidentally select the open sign for the store and either open or close it when you don't mean to.
I got all of the achievements in three days, so it's a really easy game to get the hang of. I got both of my sisters into it as well and the two of them really enjoy it. Overall, I really did enjoy this game and I had a lot of fun with it. It can just take a minute to actually get started.

Updating my review on this game; my first impressions were very negative, since it was such a sparse gaming experience with a minimal tutorial. I've since been playing this non-stop. Once you make that first $1,000 gold and figure out how to play this game it becomes addicting incredibly fast. Sure the graphics are subpar, and the controls are wonky, but damn if it isn't fun. I want to do more, and get more potions and decorate my house, buy all the garden plots, and sell stuff at my store. I think once I get all the achievements I'll slow down, but until then it's dang fun for having received this for free through Amazon Games/Twitch. If I didn't have a Steam Deck I don't think I would have ever given this game a try sitting at my computer desk playing this. Playing handheld is the way to play this game. P.S. re-map the 'L3' sprinting button to one of the back 4 buttons on the Steam Deck. It will save your left thumb from going numb.

it's a super fun, cute game! but it really quickly feels unfinished and limited... it's good if you are a casual gamer, and just want something relaxing

A cute indie, the tutorial isn't really clear but being the owner of a magical shop is really fun, i personally like the graphics but i do think it does lack a bit of polishness on the software side (GUIs, interfaces and stuff). Overall i'd say it's worth it if you get it discounted, but full price only if you are a big fan of the shopkeeper genre and you want something new.

Really cute game, I really enjoyed the time spent playing during stream. Though I did have a few gripes, the watering mechanic was far too tedious, the stamina depleted a bit too quickly, and the tools broke quite easily (even when using the upgraded tools). Those are my only issues over all, but despite those few mechanic gripes, I was still able to sit and play for several hours. I did love the potion making and foraging aspects. I recommend this game to those that don't mind the few things I mentioned above. Overall cute and cozy game!
