I really enjoyed Tides of Destiny. It's not perfect, but I think it does most of what it does well.

I appreciated the crafting systems, and the fact that you could ad your little craft areas to the house. You could make food, clothing, weapons, healing items, and furniture.

The hardest part about the crafting was finding ways to up increase your skill level so that you could complete the higher level crafting requests.

The combat system plays like a hack 'n' slash platformer, and it can be a little awkward on occasion, but it's decent.

I also agree that it's just a happy, positive, fun game. All the characters are pretty great, and it's fun giving them clothes or finding what their favorite food is.
