Game is cute and fun but I cannot in good conscience recommend a game that cost over $5 that I 100% completed in an hour and a half of mostly idle play. If you don't care about your wallet and want to have a neat short experience go for it, but I know a lot of people that expect at least an hour per $2 spent on a game that I will have to suggest skip this title.

Coming in at 2-3 hours playtime, at this point I just need to AFK for 20 mins or so to complete the game. It's decent fun, though it feels like it stops when it's just getting started. There are a few ways to brick your game through the research "quests".

If you don't use your initial research points on sap-generating recipes you can't grow your tree, and later on you'll get a quest to create 3 drones, but if you've already maxed drones you can't progress.

I'm going for a 4th attempt now, since I didn't get the final achievement to unlock all talents. I beat game and it wouldn't let me continue. Beat the game once, got locked out of quest progression twice, now the 4th run I should be able to get that last achievement lol

Another fun bug - after you do a run and unlock extra garden beds or auto-purchase of seeds, if you start a new run without fully exiting the game it get stuck auto-purchasing the seeds, so you can't buy anything other than the sunflower because you spend the pollen as soon as you earn it. So I've bricked 3 runs now for various reasons haha.

Buggy mess. From the start you can soft lock yourself if you buy a flower that costs 2 research. Great start.
Later I bought all skill tree nodes and didn't get an achievement.
A flower that produces all types of resource doesn't properly interact with another flower that doubles adjecent flowers to it.
Near the end, the game started lagging / freezing every second.

The balance makes no sense. New mechanics are unlocked as you play, but you really don't interact with them:
- energy generator - not needed, you will have plenty of energy and nothing to spend it on
- observatory - just buy stuff with passively generated resource. Bought items are meaningless by the time you can afford them
- mine - just buy rovers and spam buy upgrades

Skill tree - there are only a few upgrades that matter, and the tree itself is very small. Overall throughout the game I was constantly baffled by how terribad every aspect of it is.
