Alright, starting the review. --PresN 18:26, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

I've done general grammar fixes where I felt it would be faster to do them than to explain them here.

Gameplay

• "Each "day" lasts approximately 10 minutes (depending on kingdom morale)" - explain what "kingdom morale" is, as well as what the purpose of "days" are- just visual, or is there a gameplay effect?

Plot

• That's... all the plot there is? I almost think that the plot section should get turned into the first paragraph of the gameplay section, if it's just an intro piece.

Development

• "Several gameplay ideas were considered for the project, including making it an action role-playing game or a sandbox video game, but the developers were not fans of the genre" - but you mentioned two genres, did they not like ARPGs either?
• "At first it was thought that players would spend most of their time observing the action, but eventually features were added to keep the player constantly doing some action" - repetition of "action"
• "removed for not cohering with the finished game" - cohering is kind of an odd word to use
• The bit about the bakery feels weird as the final sentence of the section

Reception

• You mention scores for a couple reviews, but not most of them- any reason?

References

• 2: Wired, not Wired (magazine)
• 7: Is it possible to get the original source (SE NA members page), or is it lost to the mists?
• Multiple: It seems like IGN is the only online source that you cite with a seperate publisher (IGN Entertainment), why?
• 16/20/22: You have 1UP.com italicized as a "work", but not Gamepro- shouldn't it be the other way around?
• Multiple: while you generally cite authors as first last, there's a few that you do last, first- try to stick with one or the other.

Images

• Both fine, though the FUR on the gameplay image is a bit sparse

Thanks for the through review! I will get on it now. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:00, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Ok that should be everything! Added publishers, standardized authors, clarified gameplay, reorganized development, moved plot, bolstered image rationale, and moved review scores. I also found even more development in the process. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 02:27, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Passed! --PresN 04:07, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
