The verdict
A beautiful, cozy Slavic-folklore witch game built around decorating a chicken-legged hut. Skip it if you want varied content or are sensitive to bugs and poor performance.
Great for
Cozy-game fans who love folklore, witchy autumn vibes and endlessly decorating a walking hut
Main risk
Game-breaking bugs, save problems and poor performance, plus repetitive villages and quests
