WTMG's Aaron Price: "If you are looking for a stopgap substitute for a 2D Zelda game, but with a bit more to offer in terms of depth and playability, Garden Story is the way to go. If you’re not willing to go out there and fight enemies at a particular time, just chill out, handle some requests, meet the characters, head back to bed, then do it all over again. Look for perks. Search for upgrades. This is a game you can either tackle in a handful of hours or enjoy it for much longer, depending on how much you’re willing to invest in it."
The Epic Games Store needs you to take on the undead, or maybe just put around the garden, all for free this week.
Dave writes: "Garden Story introduces itself as something of a Stardew Valley or Animal Crossing, but can’t possibly compete"
Games Asylum: "Rebuilding a community, strengthening bonds, and unifying the world – you’d have to be a real sour apple not to approve of Garden Story’s themes."
