Eurogamer have stopped rating games out of 10 and now have a category system; they will either rank a game with "Essential", "Recommended" or "Avoid", or not apply any of these ranks, indicating "Not Recommended". However, as stated on
this article on the website, the scores can be represented by stars. Grow Home received a "Recommended" from Eurogamer, so I have listed it as 4 stars until we reach a verdict
here.

Reassessment request
Coming here via the reassessment request in the WPVG tag. Bumping this up to B-class; since the PR just closed I won't go too in-depth in reviewing the article, but here's a few things I noticed that would come up if I did a GA review:
You don't need to have citations in the middle of sentences, the end of the sentence is fine.
The Development sentences starting "The game has a minimalist, cel shaded graphical style" has a few problems. One, it's two sentences smushed together- the cel-shading bit has nothing to do with the "allows objects and the player's actions to adapt to any part of the environment". Two, you have a tense change- "the game has a", then "as well as using" - the game using?
After you say a reviewers full name, you can just use their last name after that
Consensus now is to round gamerankings scores to the nearest percent, rather than using over-precise numbers (also consider adding how many reviews are being averaged into the table)
Not a fan of the double-reference for the Eurogamer review; if the idea is that it used to be 4 stars, then just link to an archived page; if it never did, then where do the stars come from?
You get a little overzealous with the quoting; consider paraphrasing some of the shorter (or one-word) quotes and only quoting the longer, more meaningful bits.
