Putting aside all the tasks of keeping the ship running and the mice healthy, the game was a fun experience. As you continue along and pick up more mice, you can also upgrade your ship. There are even battles to fight. Upgrading the ship and taking part in battles are the most interesting part; I just wish there was more to it. Trying to manage the fuel and the damage of the ship, as well as multiple rooms and the needs of the mice, seemed very overwhelming at times. It drew away from what would feel like a more enjoyable game.

With the development of the ship, more mice will join in and they can accomplish more jobs. Don't let them starve and make them rich. Your final goal is to reach the other side of the desert and find the legendary land of gold to the east, El Dorado!

- Ultimately, Of Mice and Sand -Revised- is a positively charming title. It’s a cute and entertaining world that I would love to come back to if Arc System Works could find a way to make a second trip more compelling with additional gameplay options.
- 7.0Of Mice and Sand -Revised- does a lot of things right; a mixture of quests, resource management, and a necessity for clever thinking result in a decent experience for the most dedicated fans of the genre. Unfortunately, though, a lack of clear direction and a tricky-to-master workflow mean that it likely won’t quite click with everyone else; these games work best when you find yourself addicted to their menial tasks and, this time around, that sadly wasn’t always the case.
- Of Mice and Sand: Revisited is a fun resource management game. Building up the mice’s sandship to produce ever more complex goods requires thought and a good understanding of how the game operates. However, requirements to progress can slow it down and lead down the path of repetition. Even upgrades designed to maximize production capacity can’t fully address the pacing.
- 6.5Of Mice and Sand es un pequeño juego de gestión de recursos que no termina de despegar del todo y que requiere un gran compromiso por parte del jugador (y del amante del género) para comenzar a rodar por el desierto. Las facilidades que nos da la Switch para jugar a este tipo de juego chocan ligeramente con su diseño de interfaces más pensado para un stylus que para un dedo humano.
- 6.5Das Konzept von Of Mice and Sand, das sich irgendwo zwischen Aufbaustrategie mit Ressourcenmanagement und Überlebens-Abenteuer einzuordnen versucht, ist spannend. Mit einer Mäusehorde in einem Vehikel ein Ödland auf der Suche nach dem paradiesischen El Dorado zu durchqueren, ist ebenso ungewöhnlich wie interessant. Doch in der Umsetzung kratzt Arc System Works das Potenzial nur an.
