I don't love it. I don't hate it.
This game doesn't do anything wrong per se. There has been a flood of similar style idler games as of late. I am not complaining or against it, but I feel like I am playing the same thing over and over again. Honestly, maybe I just need a break from this genre haha :P
The gameplay doesn't offer anything different from what is already out there. I think if you are new to idlers, you will really love and appreciate what is done here. The decoration options are probably some of the best I have seen. You can unlock so many things, that I feel a little overwhelmed.
The music on the other hand... >.> You can buy a jukebox to change the tunes, but they are too childish for my liking. I prefer zen and soothing lofi for my idlers to promote a sense of relaxation. Even ambient sounds to mimic a spa would have been cool considering most of us prob have this running in the background, doing something else. The music is too distracting and I am currently playing with it muted, which for me just takes away from the idler experience.
Overall, I am still going to recommend this game. I think at this point, I was just expecting something 'fresh' in an idler and this didn't hit the mark for me in that department. But that doesn't make this a bad game or idler by any means. They delivered on what they advertised. I am just looking for something a bit more innovative to keep me coming back.
My wife was decorating my steam profile and was looking at the steam shops and found the cutest emotes. She pointed at the screen and said we had to buy it. I absolutely love the joy on her face seeing the cute characters or her just decorating. It's usually not my type of game but it was the cutest thing seeing her watch and play with these characters; she even changed a character in the game and named it after me. Thank you for not just bringing my wife joy but Introducing me to this genre of games.
It's cute and will hold your interest for maybe 15-20 minutes before you realize that there's not much more to it than what you're already doing. Most of the unlocks just kind of happen over time if you leave things sitting long enough. There's a few minor management elements, but the effect they have on the game is negligible if anything. The UI is pretty clunky too. If you want some overly cute pixel art animals that move around, go for it. If you want anything resembling a management game or sim, stay away.
