I bought this game for myself and my partner, and when we got into actually playing it (separate computers and talking over discord about it.) They got less than 10 minutes in and I got 16 minutes, we requested a refund for both, but denied, since it was purchased more than 2 weeks ago.
I was hoping that I could play this with my wired xbox controller, because it does state that it is fully compatible with it, come to find out that I cant move around, I cant select anything in the customization using it. Frustrating and highly disappointing.
Refunded our games because we both agreed that this was not user friendly. Even if I was trying with my controller, and they were trying on the keyboard.
Also to make note, I wish that the settings were accessible during the beginning, because it throws you into the customizing part as soon as you start the game. The volume was loud. We had to go through customizing and then we could hit ESC to mess with the settings.

Otherwise cute looking game, was really hoping for better I guess. Shame that we have to keep this game. We wont ever play it again.

While I personally mostly enjoy this game, that does not mean it doesn't have it's faults. My overall feeling is very mixed.
1. I got the game for both my partner and myself not realizing that it was split screen co-op only. After messing around trying to get it to work we both gave up. I will say I am disappointed I wasted my money, and unable to get a refund on steam for his game.
2. The controls for the game are not the best, while it does recommend playing with a controller I don't think it would improve the experience that much. While it is totally playable the controls are slow and hard to aim.
3. The game doesn't really tell you how to progress. After spending about 15 hours in game I was stuck on how to progress with only about half of the plants unlocked. I would just give up if I wasn't so stubborn to get all of the achievements.
4. The pacing is very slow, which can be relaxing and you can do as much or as little as you want. After unlocking the sprinklers and fertilizers having more than 10 plants becomes so much more easy. I will say it took me way to long to notice that one of the tables lets you stack the two, saving space.
5. After playing for a while (1 hour+) the game starts to lag, and bugs become more common. I have had my bun place things with conflicting objects and gotten stuck due to this.

I would recommend this game if it was $10 as an easy buy, but for $20 I feel like some of the issues, particularly the control with keyboard should be fixed. Especially since you can't actually play with friends as advertised, the game simply just doesn't work that way. Also the game has lots of extra things added that could have been time spent making the game run better, or to have some sort of help for progression. Being able to boat around on a pound, fish, have races, dig up random decorations, and more are in concept fun, but when you can't even play the main part of the game properly it feels like extra fluff to make the game feel bigger than it really is.
