117 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It’s like the perfect blend of Animal Crossing’s charm, Minecraft’s building freedom, and Stardew Valley’s progression and heart, all wrapped up in a uniquely Australian world full of character, wildlife, and endless things to do.

It’s honestly great both solo and with friends, even if co-op isn’t fully polished yet.

The Australian-themed island is charming, the art style is bright and beautiful, and the ambient wildlife sounds are wonderfully relaxing.
Difficulty

Like building up an entire community from nothing, the satisfaction is in the difficulty and frustration itself.

Besides some occasional performance stutters, this game is absolutely perfect on the Steam Deck, almost as if it's some kind of a first party title.
