It was very educational in a fun way. The game teaches you basic biology and genes by breeding whimsical plants. It even has a dictionary for the terms and English pronunciation. One playthrough took me about three hours. That's a good amount without being overly repetitive. You earn new plants by selling them to the townsfolk. The art is adorable, like a storybook.

It's a fun game; however, it could use some polish. The voice acting isn't the best but the volume needed improvement. Some characters are loud while others are difficult to hear. The dictionary is a neat tool but it didn't help me with the contest guy's request. I wished that was explained better in the game with a visual; instead I had to look through Steam's discussions because my non-science brain couldn't figure out what the guy wanted in a plant. The game is casual and relaxing. Until you attempt the Workhorse achievement. Then it's stressful and reliant on RNG. It made the gameplay frustrating.

Overall, Crazy Plant Shop is probably the most fun I had learning biology.
