Waiting periods if worst please increase the gems and decrease the time of gem production

Game was good but less gems are available if you want to play for free we have to wait for more than 2 days , for every episode we want gems to play but gems produce only 5-10 for 23 hrs but by episode by episode we need 23 gems for remaining gems we want to watch ads . I hate ads i watched 8 ads to get 21 gems this is not fair . I uninstalled the app because of these reason

Review

It is overall an amazing game loved the animation and the concept . but it has a lot of bugs which is so irritating when you’re playing and in order to continue to the next day u need soo many gems forcing u to watch multiple ads which is rly annoying

— planty nanny !

★★★☆☆ United Kingdom · v1.73 · 31 May 2026

Good but…

It’s a really good engaging game however, the days are so short and after you’ve done a task it’s night again meaning you have to watch so many videos to play another day to get enough gems and the more you watch the more the gems increase. Huge downfall of the game if it was playable like an actual game more people would like it.

Literal rural life in a game!!

This is an amazing game which is not too much stimulation for your brain. After the college, this game was part of my day that I really looked forward to. It has little tasks to complete and the sweetest people to interact with. It does come with a little inconvenience which is the ads to watch to wake him that I think people should be able to handle because we have to support Indian games a lot more. Hope more games will be launched:)

Lovely animation, storyline. But I think the gems are crazy. Why do they keep adding up every day? If it was watch a couple ads to start a new day, that would be reasonable. But needing to watch 5 to start the day (at this point) is not

Addicting + Beautiful

I personally am not well informed of Indian mythology/culture and I found this game so interesting and fun! I adored the storytelling through the paintings; the connections you make with the characters and the immersion you can’t help but feel. I wish it were longer! I was so sad when it ended. I would have liked the ability to move the finished paintings, as well! But that’s mostly due to used error lol! Loved this game and will continue checking with the creators for future projects. P.s. I played for free using the gems system and found it to be enjoyable, as I don’t mind watching ads when I’m wanting to play extra. (Tip: throw on a show with the mini-player feature, mute the ads as you need. Devs get ad revenue and you get to watch a show for a couple of mins lol!)

Bug

I just started playing this game, and there are already so many bugs, from the water not appearing, the requested tasks not appearing, the floating rocks, and the cursor for moving the character is very strange, stiff, and difficult to adjust the controls. I hope I can play comfortably if you guys fix all of that. It's a shame I only got to play this game for 5 minutes because it's a complete mess.

List of things I wish get better as the game progresses.

The game is excellent I absolutely love the aesthetics of it but there some things I wanted to mention about it. If there was a customisation for the character it would’ve been great and a navigation arrow since I have had a hard time to find the places and people and maybe a book for all the plants and animals and little knowledge about them in that book would be great. Knowing about plants would really help for the tea shop and I really wish that the days would last longer as I want to explore more and the days don’t last long enough the night comes so early. I really love the game I hope you get more ideas to add new chapters and items in it in future. Thank you for creating such an amazing game I absolutely adore it.

Great game but it shuts down randomly

This game would have been a 5 star but I don't know if its just my problem but whenever i play this game for a while it shuts down by itself. This has happened many times. I even tried restarting the game but it did not work. Even when i tried entering the tea shop the game automatically stops. I tried getting into the tea shop about 6-7 times but every time the game shuts down. It doesn’t let me get to the tea shop and continue. Please fix this problem

Good Concept

The game concept was good but day-night time was ridiculous; The whole day ends in 20-30 minutes max while night takes 24 hours. Increase the day time and decrease the night time. And there is no Navigation system: the mini map should have navigation according to the task given.

The game wouldn’t let me wake up

What I want to know is if it requires gems to wake up each time I go to sleep because I have not been able to wake up even though I waited for a long time . And this is my second night in the game so I don’t have gems too because I used my free gems to wake up from the first sleep. If we do require gems to wake up each time then I don’t think this game is worth playing,even though I was really excited. And if this is an error then I am still disappointed because I uninstalled and downloaded it again just so I can play it and the problem still persist.

Room for improvement

Dear game developers. Players have to collect gems to continue the game, but it takes 24h to collect them and all I can do is waiting, which makes me a bit impatient:))) I hope that players can collect more gems while playing so that we don’t have to wait 24h

Wake up sucks

I like the game very much. It has great animation but worst part is wake up time. You always have to start the day by using recharge . Which increase day by day. And you have to watch more n more add to play for only 10-15 mins (daytime) . Then character will sleep and again watch ads to wake him up. Such worst and disturbing part of whole game. Wake up should be free after 2-3 hours like any other games 😒

Why gems?

Graphics and story line is great but why do we need gems to start a new day?!? That’s is absurd, please bring a new way to start the day! Good game otherwise

★★★☆☆ India · v1.70 · 2 Feb 2026

Not good not bad

Overall the game is good with new concept but the only thing that bothers me is the time limit for getting gems. It takes 24 hours to get one gem and to start a new day we need much more than 1 gem. We got no option than to see the ads which bothers me.

Honest Review

As an artist myself, I found this game incredibly refreshing and enjoyable. The inclusion of herbs and spices, each with their own little descriptions upon discovery, was one of my favourite features. The sense of foraging, exploration, and uncovering new details felt truly magical and unlike anything I’ve experienced in similar games. The story of a young man striving to become an artist while exploring his native town was beautifully told. The world felt alive, rich with small details that added depth and charm. I especially loved the story of the runaway princess, the abandoned weaving shop, and the many subtle touches that made the village feel authentic. The characters were memorable, and the side quests, while limited in number, were thoughtfully written and enjoyable. There were a few areas where I felt the game could be expanded. The upper city area outside the fort felt somewhat underutilised, and several characters could have benefitted from additional quests or return appearances. The subplot involving the schoolmaster disapproving of his daughter spending time with the protagonist felt a little sudden near the end and might have been stronger if it had been developed earlier in the story. I would also have loved more interactions with the protagonist’s father to further explore their hardships and strengthen the emotional connection between them. A few gameplay improvements could make the experience even better. The seating arrangement outside the tea stall could not be rearranged after being placed, which felt limiting. Adding one more cow to the village would help balance paneer availability. I also wished there was slightly more time to explore the village at night after tea time. Restricting foraging and long-distance travel for safety would make sense, but the current transition to the end of the day feels a little abrupt and cuts short opportunities for nighttime interactions. Despite these minor criticisms, I absolutely loved the game. Its atmosphere, storytelling, exploration, and attention to detail made it a genuinely memorable experience. I’ve already started creating fan art for Tea Time and sharing it on Pinterest. Thank you for creating such a beautiful world, and please keep making more games. You have a lifelong fan right here.

Beautifully made game! Graphics are gorgeous, and the story line is superb. Only downside is I can’t get past the first day without making a purchase. Unless I watch several adds to require diamonds. Would buying the full game eliminate having to have diamonds to proceed to the next day? Thanks so much.
