Boy oh boy, an action adventure fused with RPG and farming elements just like Rune Factory but the characters are cute animals? Sign me right up! Except it's a game with not much depth that loves wasting your time for little to no reward...
The game is decent for the amount of content at that scale but It's not about the lack of content, it's the grinding man... The first quest you're tasked with collecting 30x wood and 30x stone, seems simple, except that wood/rock nodes don't respawn so you're wasting a lot of time and ingame days to get them. That's how 95% of quests (and crafting equipment) go, you're tasked with getting 10/20/30/50 of a specific item, which means killing about 30~60 monsters of that type.
The world is also littered with tiered chests that need a key to unlock, how do you get a key? By crafting 10 ironstones (only dropped by a specific monster, not guaranteed) and 3 bars of the respective metal. What do you get for your effort? More often than not, 5 bars of metal.
There's also the farming aspect which has no depth at all, you buy seeds, plant them, water every day, harvest after 2~5 days. Don't expect mechanics like in Stardew Valley here.
If you want a CRPG with farming get the good ol' reliable Rune Factory. If farming is more your thing, Stardew Valley. If you like CRPGs with simple mechanics, I can't recommend Fantasy Life for the 3DS enough.
