Got 10+ minutes in to answering questions and the next question populated blank. Box outline, no words. Answer box outline, no answers. I had to do a reset and the game has no save features. Not really wanting to start over if glitches are a possibility…

Cute game, reminds me of old Harvest Moon, except you're a cat and get married and have kittens. Good amount of tasks, overarching story, and lots of achievements (not impossible ones either). Would recommend.

This was a fabulous follow up to the original. You don't need to know much from the first title in the franchise, but if you've played it, you'll get some of the references. Kind of like Legend of Zelda. That being said, I could not put this game down. The scenery is gorgeous (I'm a huge Ghibli fan) and the story was exactly as it should have been. I am so happy with how this game turned out on every level.

My favourite way to play controller-heavy Steam games. As stated by Steam, you basically have to have a wired connection. I tried it without and the lag and freezing was so infuriating, I called the electrician to come and put in a wired line. But, now that it is hooked up, I love it. You have to have Steam running on your main computer, and the Steam Link basically just opens Big Picture and off you go. It's kind of like a (mostly) wireless PC-TV projector hook-up. You can look through your available games and initiate installs from the TV, the interface is easy, and you can log in to any available/discoverable computer on the same internet or home group. I would not recommend the Steam Controller, but that is for a different review. Love the XBox controller.

EDIT: I have recently re-picked-up this game now that coop has come out and patches have been released. It was a bit buggy at first as I wanted to play with an XBOX 1 controller and had to program it myself, but since then, it has been incredibly fun. All my friends are playing and now we can play together. All the positives from my previous review still stand and now the negatives are obsolete. Definitely pick up this game.

I hesitantly recommend this game. I went into this thinking that it would just be a Harvest Moon rip-off. And while it has many similarities, there is also much more to do. There is more story and more villagers and more to do each day. That being said, it is also up to you (much like Harvest Moon) to simply figure out how everything works. Now, on to why I am hesitant. Fishing is a nightmare, much too hard. But my main complaint is that the last two times I've played, after about a half an hour, my command buttons stop working (in this case, K and L, but they are programmable to any two keys). I am not sure if this is better if I use a controller, but thus far, this has been really disheartening. It forces me to rage quit after a half hour and then it is usually a week before I convince myself to pick it up again. I hope something is released to fix this so I can give it a whole-hearted recommendation. Is this game worth playing? Yes. Is it frustrating? Yes. Feels like it needs a good patch.
