unoptimized, buggy as hell, crashes frequently. metagaming, teaming, f2p model that shoves microtransactions down ur throat. would be 7/10 if it actually ran smoothly but 4/10

Sun bad

Pros:
- Farming, vacuuming, watering, and crafting mechanics are all unique
- The game play (albeit not the most fluid) is very relaxing and rewarding (the cleaning up the earth concept especially)
- The graphics are great and the soundtrack is a good complement to the game
- The combat mechanics are decent as well
- Road map for future updates looks promising (as long as the Devs stay committed)

Cons:
- The lack of tutorial or clear direction at point of first spawn can cause confusion for the first hour or so of game play (stick with it, it's worth it I promise)
- The game lacks polish and doesn't run quite as smoothly as it looks
- No ability to manually save

I would say at 4.99 USD and its current state, No Place Like Home is worth buying, with the condition that the Devs continue to introduce content and refine/polish the game play issues mentioned above and in other reviews.
