Harvest Dice Profit

Game is fire! Only 1 hour in, but I'm already in love with this game. It's incredibly fun and relaxing. Probably will spend a few (dozen) hours more on this. Worth every penny!

[h1]The gambler was replaced.[/h1] This is what i was expecting when buying "The farmer was replaced", but was met with a python programming sandbox. This game too has drones and farming, and no coding. Instead it got dice to click. [hr][/hr]Early on, [b]progression[/b] might seem slow, but thats just part of the process. Game gets automated on a decent pace and then its all about reaching next dice tiers. Mechanics present are neat, but some late-game price scalings lack polish. So its unlikely that you'll max [b]everything[/b] out [i](98% of it surely)[/i], but more on that later. Game has [b]3 gamemodes[/b], and each is unlocked 1 after another. [b]"Idle" mode[/b] needs you to just pass the tutorial and then at some point, unannounced, next mode gets unlocked. [b]"Hard" mode[/b] is... not hard xd. It just adds a debt to pay off, and required payment rises very slowly. [b]"Hell" mode[/b] is what you'd expect: higher prices, higher debt, [b]LIGHTNING DESTROYS YOUR CROPS D:[/b] Early start can be painful, but you have 5 "second chances" to skip required debt payments. I wasted none, but it was quite pressuring/click heavy during early game and the final payment, and [b]it was paced nicely, i liked it[/b]. [h3]rant/warning to completionists ahead:[/h3] After completing debt modes, only thing left is [b]100%[/b] completion on idle mode. [b]This is where i have complaints towards the game.[/b] At first the goals are clear, game "evolves", you get stronger, only 2 resources matter afterwards, [b]first half of end-game is nicely paced[/b]. But on [b]second half[/b], you cant really upgrade these 2 resources efficiently, you have upgraded everything you could, all thats left is [b]waiting/mindlessly circling[/b] the field for upgrades with diminishing returns, it became idle'y. Sure, most incremental 100% end-games are slow, but this one also [b]doesnt show you all the info you need for [u]2[/u] of the achievements.[/b] [list] [*][b]"Buy every upgrade"[/b] also includes upgrade cards, and one of these cards, the more you upgrade it, [b]the more cards it unlocks[/b]. Nothing states how much of them you should get, and their price scaling gets really grindy, so you're just progressing blindly with no end in sight and without knowing when it will end. Its ~1-2 hours of mindless grinding (after completing idle mode. [i]Yes, it has an end)[/i]. [*][b]"Harvest 1 000 000 shrooms"[/b] is straight up a [b]joke[/b]. I had to check the save file to see that stat, and after ~4 hours of playing in idle mode, i completed ~11% of it. [b]11. percent. in 4 hours.[/b] [b]with nothing left to improve.[/b] Leaving game running for 30+ hours [i](without knowing how much it will actually take, remember, i got that stat from a save file)[/i] and autoclicking "Space" is not a good time investment, that goal really should be reduced by [b]10 times[/b]. [/list] [h3]rant over[/h3] Added to that, [b]game's performance can get heavy[/b], since there's not much you can do to increase fps. Only disable visual drones/autorollers/reduce resolution/dont zoom out too much, no graphical settings in here yet (not even "disable numbers"). [hr][/hr] [h3]Despite these end-game mishaps, it was very enjoyable.[/h3] For this price, game is [b]certainly an easy sell[/b] for a 4-5 hour "casual completion". Game didnt have a demo, so [b]i guess[/b] some late scalings/mechanics/achievements werent properly tested, and i hope would be ironed out with future patches. [i]nice "time played"[/i]
