    It's very cute, family friendly and a nice game that can be played comfortably even on an old Imac at default settings or at high level, plus I live in Turkey, I can play even though the economy is bad, finally get the game on discount like me or you will regret the game is 31 liras in Turkey but in the USA Even if you live in and buy games with dollars, I think you should wait for the discountæ

For me this game is a delight to play, and will likely remain as one of those games i consistantly come back to.

    You can also explore the map, kill tarrs and work on getting everything with your lab.
    It gets a bit too repetitive, not diverse enough in what you can do and the charm of it for me wears off after around 8 hours.

    I still recommend though as it's cute and made me feel happy at how adorable it is.

    It's not good for long term play or those wanting a more serious game.

    Had a good time playing this. It's that type of game where you're "just gonna do this last thing" and end up playing 2 more hours than you planned. You're basically roaming around the world, searching for slimes to bring back to your farm. And when you've had them in your farm a certain amount of time you get money which you use to get upgrades and unlock new areas.

    Not sure why but I got serious fps drops as soon as I had a chrome page or a steam chatbox open. Extremely annoying, I never have performance issues with other games.

    Would recommend though. Very priceworthy as it goes for only 20 EUR.    … Expand

    It is a great game, and has a good amount of story to it. The only problem with it is that once you beat the game, you don't have much replay ability.. Sure, you can do Rush mode, but that just isn't enough to be a perfect game. If it had more stuff to do after you beat the game, then this would be an instant 10.

The game has so much content that when you replay it, you suddenly realize you’re on the Xbox! It’s so beautiful, charming, and the ending made everybody cry. The only problem in the game is you have to pay 10$ for the soundtrack that does not even work properly, and no multiplayer. Please buy this game.… Expand

A simple and sweet story. Tons of interesting things to do. All with a very cute and visually pleasing art style. There are multiple different game play loops that are all interesting or fun on their own right.
    Exploration is very fun, Each area has its own hub of sorts, and some places more hidden and out of the way. The problem with them is that most hidden areas usually don't have anything if you get to them, but honestly exploring and finding these places is fun enough that I don't need an award. If anything, to me personally, I prefer that there isn't anything in hard to get to places, because it feels less like I discovered something I was supposed to find, and more like I stumbled upon this little place outside the game, its rewarding in it's own right. Anyway, the farther out you go, the more difficult the slimes are to manage, in the first area, the most difficult slime is Rock, because it damages you a bit. By the last area, slimes can cause tornadoes and fiery explosions. Having to adapt to the chaos of the slimes is fun.
    The story is really nice as well. It's told mostly in messages strewn about the world, and letters you receive, so you don't need to know the story if you don't want to, but I'd recommend looking into it. It's nothing complicated, just a simple love story with the message of settling down, but I like that it isn't complicated. It's simple and sweet, just like the rest of the game, so it fits very well. The game has a perfect mix of not telling you what to do, without actually leaving you in the dark too much (unless you're like that one reviewer, Mandulum, who didn't know how to unlock the doors to the other areas).
    The visuals are great, the colors are nice, and all of the slimes are adorable(, my personal favorite is the Crystal Slime). Farming is good, you make money off of feeding your slimes, and the more difficult the slime, the more profitable it is to do so. So you can buy upgrades to your farm to make it easier to deal with slimes as the slimes get more chaotic. It's balanced fairly well so its never too easy nor too hard to keep your farm in check. A problem you could think of when looking at the world map is that it's too small, but realistically you can't leave your farm for more than 2 days at a time, because slimes get more chaotic the more hungry they are, so you won't be able to explore everything for a while. This serves to keep you more interested in the world, as forward progress is generally small. You could play the game without farming at all, but there are various upgrades you can give yourself with money that you'd then miss. Such as more inventory, faster movement, more health, more energy, and a jetpack! The farming never feels like its keeping you from exploring either, its a perfect source of downtime. It's not difficult, but it's engaging. The various possible upgrades to the farm kept me interested, and wanting to make everything as efficient as possible. Something about it is addicting in the best possible way. There are a few other sectors to your own farm you can unlock as well, the most game changing being the Slime Science area.
    This mechanic makes the game far more interesting, now you can craft teleporters between the outside areas, item transporters, many decorative objects, and many other random things to play around with. It makes the possible efficiency of your farm to the next level. On that matter, the game is crafted perfectly so it's impossible to fully automate your farm, no matter what you do, and I like that. It is a farming simulator on some level, so its good that no matter what you do, you still need to do something to keep it running. The slime science area also allows you to unlock "Treasure Pods". These are strewn about the world, and cannot be unlocked unless you open the Slime Science area. But the Slime Science area is so expensive that you'll probably only unlock it after you've already explored all the areas, meaning it's the perfect incentive to go back out and explore even more. Especially because most recipes to craft Slime Science things are in these. The game also has 3 free pieces of DLC, each of which is like an advanced mini game. I'll be honest, only 2 of these are interesting, the other one's kind of annoying, but that's just my opinion.
    I know that this is way too long (hell I just had to delete what I was planning to be my second to last segment just to fit into the character limit), but I cannot emphasize enough how good this game is. It's my second most played game on Steam at over 500 hours. It's only $20 on Steam, it's totally worth it. 11/10.    … Expand

And now they are releasing Slime Rancher 2 and Im definitely not gonna buy it - If they are going to make new graphics, new map and some more slimes, just ignore this title, its not worth it.

    The first few hours are honestly really fun, but there comes a point where everything just kind of becomes less of an exploration and more of a chore, and at that point the tedium of the game started to wear me out on it.

    Slime rancher is very unique and chill farming game. It has exploration and a little story you can piece together to know more about the island. All an all a fun little game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's fun, but with certain mechanics such as get the expansions from other villagers it gets a bit tedious, having to repeat the same thing over and over again without any change and not doing it for fun but just to complete something
    It's really the only thing that bothers me about this, other than that, it's a good game.    … Expand

    Very fun concept and colorful art style, love selling slime turds. Unfortunately the story is not that great.

    Slime Rancher is a perfect game. The lore and story is heart jerking, the graphics are beautiful and the slimes, the slimes are the most cute, joyful, charming, delightful and adorable creatures to ever exist. I have 100's of hours, no 1,000's and every day I gain more hours played. I. Will. Never. Stop.

    It was nice to enter a different universe with a beautiful theme. Exploring the world and slimes is enjoyable until a certain time, but the game becomes very aimless after a point.

    Slime Rancher is its own enemy: everything good it offers has a counterpart of equal magnitude. However, in the end, the experience is enjoyable and, despite its notorious flaws, turns out to be a pretty fun mix of FPS, adventure and farming simulator.
