Welcome back Hobbits!
Love the new game Tales of the Shire. All hobbits will enjoy this cozy game in Bywater. Beautiful graphics and fun interactions with townfolk and animals. Just what I was hoping for. Love the surprise visits by Gandalf. Hoping for a DLC.

Fun but needs some polishing
Ive had a lot of fun with this game but for the wait i wish it was a little more polished. The foraging, gardening, and character interations are enjoyable and straight forward. I enjoy working to unlock different areas and aspects in a game and the different sesona having different items available. I do wish there were more options for purchasing clothing and furnature though you do get a good selection of furnature through sharing meals. I also wish the club task boards opened sooner in the game and that the characters spoke though (Daisy's noise when interacting with her cracks me and my husband up though). I also wish there were a few more visitors and that time went a bit slower though in a game day. I habe not experienced mamy bugs other than cuts scenes at times being viewed through part of nearby objects. I do hope there may be potential updates and maybe some kind of expanding to other hobbit towns or more visitors to town. Overall a good game but it has its issues.

Fun game
This game is a little confusing to follow when it comes to inviting guests. I think the bird guides are a nice touch as well but could be better guidance. Overall, its a fun game and i love being able to be a hobbit.

Not perfect, but still cute.
Overall the game is fun. It may not be the best cozy game ever, but as a huge LOTR fan it just makes me smile with all the references to the other characters.
