Garden of the Sea

It's a chill game, very cool graphics. Figuring out how to do everything seemed difficult until you figured it out. Then it made sense, even seemed clever. However, getting there...you had to do a lot of internet searching. At least, I did. I loved the animals, especially the puffins. The sound they made was super cute! I did not like the way I couldn't put seeds on the second and third shelf of the seed rack. It was pretty much impossible. Storing items in a compartment chest was a hassle for me because I couldn't easily see what was in the chest unless I took it out. Everything becomes microscopic. To avoid the stupid chest, I threw everything on the floor in my house. Lol. Also, I didn't bother with buying any furniture or decoration for the house. I just concentrated on finishing the story. Once that was done, I was done. Other than that, I liked the game. Very fun but short.

Bought this game both on VR and the computer because it's so cute! I do recommend it on VR, but either are good! The game can be finished pretty quickly if you're a one track minded person like me, (I finished it in 3 hours because I *only* went after the main objectives) however after you've "finished the game" you can farm and collect to sell so you have money for your house. It's satisfying and calming enough that I can see myself coming back to decorate my house and to just rack up money. In a very loose way, it's very similar to Outer Wilds, where you are not directed to do anything, but you are put in this world that you want to explore. There are no quests and no tips, you have to figure out everything on your own which is satisfying and engaging. There is one puzzle that I (a dumb person) had a bit of trouble with, but I never had to look anything up. All in all, Garden of the Sea is a cute farming, animal care, and house decorating game that does not overstay it's welcome.

Such a cute and wholesome game, I love all the animals you can befriend. There's a lot of content in such a small package; I'm still struggling to figure out how to complete the last island!

VR is more fun, but PC is more accessible. I wish the game was less shallow and wasn't just about looking cute.

This vibes of this game are sweet and cozy! I love the cute wildlife and interacting with them. Their reactions are to die for! It's hard for me to pull myself away from the animals and foraging just around my campsite! However, this game pushes you to explore in search of items for the diagrams spread all over the world to find. While I do appreciate that the game doesn't hold my hand, some things I wish were better explained. It took me forever to figure out how the merchant worked, and I still don't understand how to get certain items for the diagrams. Sometimes the premapped controls for controller get clunky for me (I don't think I'm able to change them at this moment in time), and the UI on the inventory items sometimes don't show up properly/show up blank. I keep accidentally throwing my tools off the boat while trying to place it in its slot, but luckily they respawn for me at camp when I reload. It's just a bummer to experience when I'm all the way out exploring at sea! I wish we had more inventory room, but maybe I haven't gotten that far in the game with upgrades. Right now my house is full of chests everywhere and my toolbar is constantly packed with things! I'm constantly having to go back and forth to empty it. I feel like this game is beautiful has a lot of potential for a chill experience. I can't wait for updates!
