Not especially
I actually got to the final stretch and dropped it because I just didn't care what happened anymore
Farming elements are shallow and tacked-on, and it was turned into a sloppy ARPG mid-development because they didn't think turn-based would sell
A relatively large amount of effort went into the environments and the story is a little interesting but that's all I can say for it

No, not even remotely, not even for free. Avoid like plague if you expect quality farming in particular, there's none. There's no romance either. And the combat is as garbage as it possibly gets, the devs couldn't decide if they wanted it to be turn-based or realtime until it was too late and it turned out spectacularly awful in the end. If you do actually play it, use a trainer.
I'm not even touching on all the DEI cancer squeenix shoved in, as you'll get filtered before it gets to you, most likely by an overall boredom.
Read all the negative reviews on Steam, while there's certain amount of screeching, they don't outright lie.
Rune Factory 4S and/or 3S is a far better farm sim with combat and waifus if that's what you're thinking.

I dropped it about 10 min in when it forced me to play as a girl or a boy that looks 100% like a girl.

I figured that showed it was going to force all kinds of other dumb bullshit at me the whole game if this is how it starts.

You're better off getting the latest Rune Factory, Dragon Quest Builders 2 or something.

i put like 20ish hours in and lost all interest.
the first few hours are so handholdy that it feels like babies first game that requires reading.

skip it
