Reviewers praise the game's beautiful art, relaxing atmosphere, soundtrack, and meaningful, educational story. The most common complaints are the harsh food and thirst survival mechanics, which some find too difficult early on, and slow or awkward camera and controls. Several users also note the lack of a clear map or minimap, leading to getting lost, and missing cloud saves or unsaved progress. A few reviewers found the game too short and wished for a sequel.
