I bought this game, thinking it wouldn't do much for me like so many other study games before it, and I'd get a few minutes in before uninstalling.

Well it's been 3 hours, I've rewritten two chapters, and created one whole character bio for a story I'm writing.
Found two forest spirits, decorated my little house a little, and I'm so impressed.

First of all, art style is GORGEOUS, I could sit and stare at it forever.
Secondly, the music goes so hard, I've been listening mostly to the forest trails playlist, but the magic studies one is so good too.
AND THERES NO AI, PRAISE BE I'M SO GRATEFUL

I really appreciate the inclusion of a checklist and pomodoro timer, as someone who uses both of these in my main workflow, it's so helpful to have both in one place.
Ticking things off, and gaining xp gives me such a sense of accomplishment, I love it.
And I appreciate how the pomodoro timer actually tells you when it's done, it sounds silly but my previous one didn't and it bugged me to no end.

All in all, excited to continue exploring this world while I work. 10/10

BlueTurtle always did deliver on youtube. The art, music and atmosphere always helps me focus and relax. Super great game to help even more! Recomend it alot, especially if you enjoy his videos on youtube.

As someone who hasn't found gamified productivity tools to be very useful in the past, I've enjoyed this one. The aesthetic is very nice, and the progression of unlocked scenes tells a story that's just barely detailed enough for you to be given something to think about as you go.

There are some areas I'd like to see improved. More interactive elements on the scenes/room would be nice, as well as a way to set the timer for longer than an hour. I'll be curious to see what changes are made in the next few weeks post-release, as the developer has stated intent to add more.

Most people seem to have learned about this through the developer's YouTube content creation, but hearing about it for the first time on Steam didn't detract from my experience at all. I think it's fairly priced for what it offers.
