What players say

Players call it the most relaxing idle game they have played, with no punishment for inactivity and no resource overflow. The weather and day-night cycle, plus many glowing mushroom types, keep the scenery interesting while the game runs in the background. A few players want quality of life tweaks in the mushroom journal.
