Happy gaming! Glen
The Chiminea looks hilarious, I love it 😂
I was pleased untill the turn base combat. I m sick of those already, its waaaay too many for way too few action adventure ones. One of the reason i m saving up for another system.🤷♀️😮💨 looks cute tho.i wlda loved it otherwise.
I kinda feel like they made this game just for me. Stardew + Pokemon + Slay the Spire sounds too good to be true.
Ohmigosh ohmigosh i need this game! 😍
Lost me at "card battling"…more like gambling. Everything else in the game looks great though
Thank still on fence about this one
Omg I want to play this!
Looks gorgeous but sounds like a big commitment for me personally. I don't know about managing all those systems at the same time. Thanks for the review.
This is a game I never knew I needed, at least until now. Loving the look of this game
I just bought monster Hunter stories on my switch. My wallet can’t take much more abuse.
I sometimes really avoid watching your reviews. Because I ended up buying it 😭
Most of these elements sound great for me but I’m not a fan of card battling, shame. Thanks for the well balanced review Glen
Great review. Been looking forward to this one and seems to run fairly well on Switch. Only downside for me is that it doesn’t seem you can customize your character at all.
Does this game has an ending? I like stardew valley style.
This seems like a gem! I don't play many farming sims, how is the amount of crafting compared to spiritfarer?
Yes you can Take monster in the lab even when it s closed you have to go in front the machine behind the desk 😂
Kikis Delivery Service but a game 😝
Might as well wait for Farmagia instead
Sounds like a really fun game but do the creatures “evolve”?? I’d get pretty bored if the creatures I level up don’t actually appear to be leveling up.
My switch was recently misplaced or stolen. Could you fellas make a video with advice on how to address this situation and/or take steps to prevent this from happening?
This screams Monster Sanctuary sequel – take my money already!
You can access your spirit storage even when the research center is closed by interacting with the shaking box at the back 🙂
Also might be worth adding you can change the difficulty at any time for things like the card battling if its not for you. Same for fishing. The day length can also be changed at any time too.
This looks fun but something I'll pick up on a discount
As long as there’s no fishing
Wow should I get this rn haha
Whoa, I followed the their Twitter since the literal beginning of its development.
Many times of changes from asset, content, even concept.. It is really amazing to watch it go this far!
You can use the computer in the research centre to move spirits to the barn or your medallion when Zed is not at work. ☺️
