I do like this game, it has sadly however been abandoned by the developers. It will not get any more updates.

I liked playing this game. I enjoy trying to improve my farm and the village. However the game does suffer from a few problems. The game feels a bit dull at first. And doesn't feel better until villagers start giving you quests and tasks to build and complete. The biggest problem is the crafting and building is so slow and tedious. Processing food is so boring and slow, I didn't bother anymore after getting the achievements. And if villagers like a certain food as a gift I don't bother making it I just buy it. Selling also is so clunky and annoying have to place each item individually to sell it, it's so fiddly and slow. Also it is quite limited as when tasked with building a museum I wanted it to be all white and there are no white roof tiles and marble for marble block can only be found at the occasional event island, so you can't get it all the time only a few days a season. I also had no option for stairs but the brown ranch stairs, so decided to just leave it until I get better options. Nothing in this game is done well and is just serviceable. I prefer just trying to make as much money as possible and just buying everything instead of crafting it when possible. Also storing items is terrible, you have to have storage bookcases to put items on, no chests to put away items. It looks ugly having all these shelves around with items on it. I built an extension room on the farm for just putting storage bookcases in to keep the ugliness out of view. Can't store clothes in a wardrobe or chest of drawers, have to put them on a bookshelf. And I don't bother buying clothes as it takes up way too much space trying to store them and just wear the same outfit or 2. Fridge can't store food, also have to store on bookshelf. I built the patisserie then went to Emilia and she did not even acknowledge I built it or thank me at all and instead immediately asks to expand it and then when I finished adding the items for tier 2 she then mentions needing an apprentice and I have to bake a cheesecake to prove myself. She is never in the patisserie and just randomly wanders around the village anyway. Some quests can get bugged and not list as complete and the NPC doesn't acknowledge it as completed or give you any reward. Happened when I completed the patisserie. The way they have done cats eyes is terrible. The pet cat has freaky looking eyes, it has black and red checker pattern and a green rim around it. It looks more like a bug's eyes than how a cats should look. In my first game I got a grey tabby with the freaky eyes. My second game I got a white cat with the same looking freaky eyes. They totally ruined how the cat looks. It's random what pet cat you get but most have freaky eyes. I renamed my cat Phantom and just pretend he's some weird spirit cat. The day goes by way too fast, it feels like I barely have time to do anything. It would be good if we could choose how long the day was but I know that is not going to happen. I hate that you are only allowed to sleep at night and if you don't sleep you get a money penalty. I got sick of the game by year 2, just the same repetition and it feels so dull. I only kept playing as I wanted to get all the achievements. I recommend this game as I got some enjoyment out of it and got addicted to perfecting the buildings and making my farm look good. I'd only rate it 6/10 as it has too many things wrong with it and a lot that could and should be improved. As in there is a festival for every season except Summer, that should of been added and there is an airship landing area which seems like it is an unfinished area and isn't used for anything. But unfortunately it seems like the devs have given up on it and aren't going to update it anymore. I'd sum this game up in 3 words: cozy but dull.

I would absolutely recommend this game, what a gem this has turned out to be for me! I LOVE it. I first saw it a few years ago for the switch, but I needed to wait for a sale, so when I saw it on offer through Steam I snatched it up, then kind of forgot about it and didn't play it for ages. Finally decided to dive in a few weeks ago, and man, I am kicking myself for waiting! I have had so much fun with the farming aspects of the game so far, and exploring the world, getting to know villagers and performing daily tasks and quests. I am not a great builder, so that part challenges me, but I love the creative mode for build testing and I am not afraid of cheat codes, so I can really just relax and enjoy myself with the game any way I want to. No game is perfect, but this one is aces in my books. Some things are not overly intuitive for me when doing quests, and my partner has figured out more of the controls while watching me play than I have myself, but there is a fair bit of info online when I'm really stuck, and I love watching let's play's for this game (even though most are a bit old by now.) Thanks to the Staxel dev for bringing something unexpected and awesome into my life :)

Do you like stardew valley but want to expand on the village, and create new places to shop and visit? Then this is the game. I can only explain my brief time playing as a first person stardew valley, with aspects of animal crossing. There are festivals, people to meet and little requests from people. Then there's building! You can build new houses and businesses any way you want, as long as they have the items required in the build order. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys cozy, farming or simulation games!

I've played the game for 7 hours, and there's still far more to be discovered but while I'm at it, I may as well supply a review. The game is great. There are issues with lag and frames, even while I was playing single player so it may be game processing and something with my PC. The game looks cute and decent for a pixel Minecraft version of Stardew Valley. Really good alternative especially if those top-down games turn you away. Biggest turn-off, I've read the developers have stopped pushing out updates and further developing the game. There seems to be a lot left to be desired. Health/hunger systems could be implemented, a combat systems with new mobs to battle. The game lacks a threat/danger. Something Stardew or Minecraft doesn't fail at delivering. But with the game as it is, I give it a 6.5/10 above average but fails to deliver on a lot of what it could be. I would recommend buying while on sale as I did. Could be played with friends and it may expand on the fun experience. Try it yourself and leave a review. (TLDR) Good game, not being updated, buy on sale.
