“This game is a lot more in-depth than most people would think for a pixel-game, sandbox RPG. The city of Pixelia is huge (and I'm not even at the farm stage yet).

“Overall, I give this a thumbs up for the game it wants to be, but the actual execution of the game lets it down pretty hard and there's a lot to overlook.
