Hardcore Gamer: Basically, take the voxel world of Minecraft and change its focus from adventuring into farming and you’ll have a good idea about what Staxel has to offer right now.
Welcome to Staxel, a quaint island full of charming characters, with bugs and fish to catch, fossils to excavate and quests to complete! Settle into your new home on the farm, fix it up, fill it with crops and animals, then change it up across the seasons of the year. When you’re not farming, take up a range of hobbies to earn some extra cash, or spend some time befriending the locals!
A farming game that is now on the Nintendo Switch, this Staxel review reveals that the game ultimately pulls itself in too many directions.
"Staxel delivers a mediocre mix of block-building, farming, and foraging without providing any substantial drive or reward for your efforts. In other words, you'll be better off picking up one of the many games that Staxel was inspired by instead." - Mary Billington from Video Chums
