Slow and Repetitive – Seabeard Review

This game in theory is super cute. I get that you are supposed to play a little bit every day. However, the pace is so incredibly slow from the very beginning it’s impossible to get into. I think an improvement in the early game pacing is needed. To get anything done I feel like I need to check the game every couple of hours. Which is not how I like to play my games and not realistic for someone who works and has responsibilities outside of constantly checking a mobile game. I regrettably bought gems to hopefully progress the game past the beginning hump to see if the game just needs a nudge. I won’t be doing it again because it got me no where. It all feels super chore like and not in the way I like from a game like this. I’m waiting to finish multiple tasks to progress the game and those tasks require stuff I have to wait days to get. Corn for example won’t be available for a couple of days which means my progress super early game has came to a complete hault. The pacing is just making what could be a really addicting game a total snooze fest. Instead of getting addicted to the progress I have completely lost interest in playing. The inventory is frustrating as well because nothing stacks. I get you want people to pay for gems but this is the first Apple Arcade game that is constantly backing me into a corner to buy more to get through the awful pacing and lack of noticeable progress.
