Completed it, am happy.

Just one thing, add light mode please.

Short, cute, cozy.

A meaningful story, with a beautiful art style.

Overall a great experience. Just a few small things I'd like improved.

Firstly, better control over roads having or not having sidewalks, and parking spaces. Say I want a road with normal narrow sidewalks, no parking spaces, and no grass (which I currently use to get rid of parking spaces)? No can do, as far as I can tell. If all these factors were controllable, that would be great.
Secondly, a way to control where zoning goes, and which way buildings should face when built (or, which road a buildings should be built on). Currently fiddling a bit with pedestrian paths to "force update" the zoning grid the desired layout.


And for the performance, it runs fine.
Considering the fact that I'm on a 2060, which by today's standards is a low-end card (thus also lower than the recommended spec), the game runs very well (also running via Proton on Linux, btw).

The narration was enjoyable, kudos for that.

The last long walk was definitely the star of the show.

Shorter than other 0 Deer Soft games, but still very enjoyable.

Only one where I felt it was more singleplayer oriented, since there truly were not multiple puzzles to solve at once constantly, unlike the previous games where there was constantly something to do for three people.

Oh and screw that one door.

Great cat collecting game! Some positions were quite creative, and took a bit to find, but we did manage to collect them all.

The puzzles were all great, like other games from 0 Deer Soft. Smooth mechanics and a clear goal for each puzzle, no complaints here.

Downloaded the game with a friend at around 2AM, and ended up pulling an all-nighter, playing till 10AM.

The building mechanic is surprisingly good, seriously! Sure, the pathing requires some fiddling around and getting used to, but after that, it's amazing!

Considering the fact that it's (almost completely) a one-man project, it's really good.

Main thing missing, is just more content. And sure, QOL updates that make pathing and that kinda stuff a bit easier to work around.


Oh and we may have had too much fun dismembering (and dis-facening) the travelling trader constantly (Seriously though, he shows up a bit too often).

Updated to positive, since the developers did not go through with the original anti-cheat change that they planned.
AFAIK there are still plans to move to another anti-cheat, but one which aims to support Linux OOTB.


Old review below:
In short, the game is great. It feels like the shooter game I've always wanted, but never got.
The mechanics feel great and polished, and are very enjoyable.

But, on principle, I have to give this a negative review. Why?
Because the developers are planning on moving away from EAC (on official servers), onto an anti-cheat that does not support Linux natively, or through Proton. Which would make it impossible for me, and others, to play it.

I sincerely hope that you, the developers, would reconsider the move away from EAC.

Balls sweating after sitting for 6 hours straight, but would experience again, if I could wipe my memory.

Loved the puzzles, once again. Just hard enough.
And no, you do not need a notebook or a calculator. Skill issue, sorry.

I actually found the armour stand puzzle to be the most fun, due of the Finnish language puns.

Played with 2 friends, so 3 in total. Worked out well, even if a little trolling was involved.

Graphically the best game in the series so far. There were a lot of fun new puzzle mechanics introduced, while keeping to the feel of the previous games. Though some of the puzzles could have been a bit more difficult.

Was faster to 100% than expected, taking some ~11,5 hours, with some tomfoolery thrown in the mix.
We assumed it would take a bit more than that, based on the playtimes of others in the reviews.
