    Fun little game and a good value. It still runs a bit choppy for what it is (playstation 1 graphics) and could use a bit more optimization. Additionally, I think a few more game mechanics can easily be added to extend the gameplay and/or make "prestige" post-game more fun. Sadly it appears the developer has moved on, as there haven't been any updates in months.

    I Hate the new wave of Incremental slop but I find Forest Hustle to be worth the effort. Getting to the end and seeing a barren wasteland is its own reward. Def needs more optimizing and more to do after prestige. New mechanics not just stat increases. Overall worth your time but try to get on sale if you can. 7.7/10

    - Boring. - Very tedious start - There is no exploration as hinted in the promotional video. The chest just spawns near your house after every nap and isnt really worth picking up. Some shrooms also spawn near your house (and only there) to fill up stamina. You find NOTHING else. - You dont manage anything in this game. Put a Hut somewhere and spawn workers. You have no influence over them, they work autonomously.โ€ฆ
