I can't describe how much I love this game! I was initially put off by the art style, but seeing so many positive reviews made me give it a chance and I'm so glad I did. I love that this game is story-driven. The rich characters and interesting plot make it fun for me to just walk around town talking to people. There's a lot of unique dialogue so they don't repeat themselves endlessly and they all feel distinct from each other. The voice acting brings the characters to life even more. And I absolutely love how diverse the game is, it really feels like something for everyone and more reflective of real life. It's so nice to see myself and people I know reflected in a game. I rarely see that. Additionally, I appreciate the way they took a well-loved genre (farming) and added magic as a new and thoughtful twist. It feels properly incorporated as opposed to just being slapped on to be different. Plus, being able to move the game forward at my own pace and the progressive disclosure of different features makes it so that I don't get bored. The game has a great amount of content too. I've put in 65+ hours and I'm halfway through (I've been taking my time though). I will be so sad when I've finished playing! I've been playing farm sims since the 2000s and Wylde Flowers has set a totally new standard for me. The Studio Dryrock team did an amazing job! I can't wait to see what they come out with next. I would love to see Milkwater in a future game!
