Released too early. Really buggy and some quests aren't clear. There's quests where they tell you to help animals, but don't explain how. some things that were beginner items in the last game are not available even when they're neccessary ie: well, other animal signs, animal bedding etc. hopefully they'll fix it as I really want to enjoy this game.

Everdream Village is a cozy farming sim where you build up your farm and village, grow crops, raise animals, explore different islands by boat, and use magic to transform into animals. It follows up on the world of Everdream Valley, but puts more focus on village building, island exploration, and expanding what you can do around your homestead. Pros ✔️ Builds on a world that already had good bones - If you liked the …

Updated Review (changed from negative to positive): I'm changing my review because QoL-updates and fixes are being done. I would still recommend holding off for now as there is still a lot missing. But I want them to succeed with this, so I'm changing my review :) Original Review: Shame... seemingly no lessons were learned since the last game. 1. There is currently two skin colours, two hair colours and three …

I was pleasantly surprised by this one! I wasn't a huge fan of Everdream Valley and found it a bit empty with not much to do, but the concept of building and growing a town over time and finding and inviting villagers to join you sounds like a big improvement. I've played about an hour and a half so far and here are my initial thoughts: PROS - The animals are so cute and I love them all. - It is so much prettier …

Players who liked Everdream Village talk about adorable animals and beautiful scenery; those who didn't talk about bugs and glitches, especially in early access. Which matters more to you?

60 of 73 · most liked firstReview Copy Received Version 1.2 Post Hotfix Date Played 12/16/25 TLDR: This game is a 2.5/10 It is functional but a time wasting game riddled with bugs and unfinished ideas and only plans to add more unfinished ideas instead of polishing what it already has on its first 2 islands. You will spend more time doing quests to lead you along seemingly in the hopes of progress before you realize there is no real satisfying gameplay loop to expect from a farming sim nor a…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First off, I recognize that the game is in early access. Second, the devs seem to really take feedback and quickly turn things around. That said, I've been playing less than 11 hours and have seemingly reached the end of all quests. There's literally nothing else to do. I was at least hoping for interior decorating but that's not unlocked yet either. I guess I'll have to shelf the game and keep checking back for more content
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely buggy. Personally think the game was released to Early Access way too early. The idea is great, but its unplayable.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game forces a non-binary gender assumption on the player, erasing choice and disrespecting those proud of their gender. The farming and exploration are good and I like them but good crops can’t fix bad design or disrespectful defaults. Developers need to prioritize player freedom. Whoever decided this was a good idea, should get fired, as it kills the game for 50% of the players. Follow my curator page for honest takes, unapologetic critiques, and gamers’ rights! 🎮✊…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It seems to be a cute game, but at this time i don't think i can recommend it, the controls are clunky and tutorials are very unclear, there does not seem to be a natural flow to the game or a story that is actually interesting, it is pretty sad, i hope it gets an upwind

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After playing a very buggy Everdream Valley, I don't know what I expected with this game. It is very easy to get soft-locked. The instructions aren't clear. The graphics are cute but it is all over the place. The tutorial pages flicker something awful and don't direct. I tried to place a house and it needed more materials. The gameplay nor the material tells you that you have to sleep with the materials in your inventory to build a house, which makes no sense. It isn't playable in its current…

neutral · AI labelView post →Early Access game so should have early-access game expectations. So far I'm having lots of fun with it! Like story of seasons and harvest moon, combined with a bit of animal crossing in 3rd person 3D! Art style can sometimes feel too childish but running around and collecting ur future farm animals is a lot of fun, as well as the new (compared to everdream valley) cooking! You also make furniture (in an easier but still a bit tricky) way than Hokko Life. Surprised that they have managed to add…

neutral · AI labelView post →Please keep in mind the dates of the negative comments as they have been releasing Quality of Life patches since. I absolutely love this game so far. I understand it’s still Early Access, so I don’t expect it to be perfectly bug free, but I honestly haven’t come across any game breaking ones at all. The gameplay itself for only being ~8 hours in is great. Btw, I’m playing on the Steam Deck, so don’t let the “unsupported” label deter you. You can definitely tell they need to work on the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately I don't think I can recommend the game at its current state. The graphics are cute, and the mini-games are really nice and I enjoy them quite a lot... but the instructions (and tutorials) are very unclear, I haven't played that much and yet I found myself frustrated quite a lot due to the fact I had no idea what to do and how to progress the quest. It resulted in me getting tired of the game really quickly, which unfortunately, didn't make me feel "cozy". There are bugs obv,…

neutral · AI labelView post →I was excited to play this game but I don't think I can recommend it how it is right now.. It's very cute, and it has potential BUT the quests aren't very informative, I was so lost when it came to a few of the quests. I HATE that you can't even go inside your house. I do understand that it is EA but come on.. IT'S EA NOT A DEMO... I hope the devs will continue to improve it so that I can come back to it in better shape and then I'll come back and change this review.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't play Everdream Valley, so I don't know what the complaints are from that game vs this one. What I can say, is I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed Everdream Village thus far. The dev team is very quickly addressing bugs and improving gameplay daily. This is an early access game that surely needs some grace every once in a while, but I've yet to run into anything game breaking or unplayable. The NPCs are engaging and fun to talk to. The animals are adorable-- I LOVE the breeding system. The NPCs…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Update 2: Note: I have refunded this. Until I see some real improvements, it would be of no use for me to even try and recommend features. I just believe even as a developer myself, that things should be at a better state. Update 1: This is more like Alpha, than it is beta or early access. It needs work and the game is quite unclear in what you need to do. The UI needs work and simplification. There is too much going on screen to actually appreciate the world you built. Its promising but…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →How could this game even be somewhat worse than its predecessor in EA? What a shame the developers did not improved a bit just make the controls even worse somehow...refund while you can
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Too underdeveloped for early access. Literally cant even use my own name in the game because the AI bot automatically flags any form of my name as a swear word, my name is Cassidy. Give me a break.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Adorable game, still in early access at the time I'm writing this, that said, it has some irritating bugs, Don't accidently chase crabs out of your current map, you will crash. The quests are fairly solid, descriptive terms need some work. "Gift" X NPC Z rather than "Talk to X about Z" and a good deal of needless point A to point B travel then back to A then back to B then to C back to A, with very little substance in between. IMO This game is ***BEAUTIFUL***, the minigames are alright, fishing…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Looks like this could be cool. But it doesn't explain itself very well. I'm stuck on multiple quests. Also cant change you tracked quest now, pretty sure I could before the last update. My inventory is a mess too, suddenly I have over 100 fences I (am pretty sure) didn't make, and when I move things sometimes things duplicate one item and the other disappears. Just lost my marking tape (edit: didn't lose it, it just moved to a spot I'm pretty sure had something in it, but was not the spot i…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You can watch it here - https://youtu.be/Q3YxvAjkLWE The Smell Mechanics in the game is pure pain , there is this quest where you have to collect several bones for her dad , the first 7 you can find via markers but the last one you have to use smell by becoming the puppy and the track it . It is impossible to find . The smell is very distracting as it takes you everywhere except where the bone is buried . I tried litterally everything but I still cannot find and I hate this awful tracking via…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute and nice mix of light narratives with pleasant, relaxing gameplay. Looks like a game for kids, but being adult I had a lot of joy with it, with positive nostalgia of becoming a kid again, and playing on the fantasy sandbox/playground full of tiny little adventures. There is some hiccups coming from the Early Access state of the game, but nothing really kept me away or stopped me within my game. I believe devs know what to do and I'll wait with a huge optimism for the final release to play…

There is tons to see, do and explore, there are many different types of animals to befriend and bring to your village just beware it is early access and it does run like it there are bugs, there is unfinished and missing content, all to be expected with early access I am…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game runs ROUGH on the Legion Go S but I also understand this is new new new early access so I am excited. I'm a little overwhelmed with everything it wants you to do right in the beginning, but that's probably just me. I like the character customization, I wish there were more clothes, hair colors, and hair styles to choose from though. So far game play seems straight forwards, I'm sure it's easier on PC rather than handheld but I am still having fun! Can't wait to see what comes next…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I completed Everdream Valley & was so excited to play this. It continues the story from the last game. There are additional things you can do in this one for example, transform into a dog. The graphics are definitely improved from Everdream Valley but it was beautiful then & it's stunning now. The only downside imo is this game has no trophies to achieve which makes me not want to play :( hopefully they will be added in the future & then I will crack on with the story. If that doesn't bother…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I play a lot of Early Access Games. I'm almost 8 hours into this one and there's still so much for me to do. I've bred several different colors of cows and helped my family around the island. I've put a dinosaur skeleton together and have it proudly displayed in front of my house. I've only barely explored the second island as there's so much to still do. A lot of the reviews I'm seeing don't seem to be very fair in my opinion. Sure, you can't enter houses yet, but that gives us something to…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love the game. However, sometimes it glitches when I go into craft something and will not let me move up and down to find what I need to craft. I have to exit the game completely and go back in to start where I left off. If this could be fixed that would be great. All and all it is very relaxing, other than that issue I am having.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it is fun, though frustrating
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Giving this an extremely tentative recommend. This is a very short playthrough, with many things left undone, and a TON of bugs. Most positive review is based on playing the last game which was super fun, and the assumption that the work and love they put into that game will also be put into this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I received a free copy for reviewing on twitch. I love this game, the animals and characters are super adorable. I love how you can transform into the dog and talk to the animals, it adds a whole new level to the gameplay. Im excited to keep playing and find out what comes next.

Of course, there are some bugs, but it's EA, so I was expecting that.
