A very, very good game. I maxed out my relationship with every weapon because I legitimately loved them all. I am very glad that they added a warning at the beginning about the whole main plotline with Eric, because if I had played prior to that (and hadn't already heard about it), I would probably have rated this game lower.

This isn't a spoiler since that warning is presented at the beginning and you have the opportunity to opt-out of it, but just to forewarn you, Eric is a stalker. It's VERY uncomfortable. But I also think that the storyline is handled in a very responsible way, it's NEVER presented as an okay thing, and it wraps up in a good way.

Outside of the Eric plotline, everything else is super wholesome and sweet. Your family in-game are excellent and supportive, all your prospective dates are really interesting people, and the combat is very fun and rewarding to master.

;w; This game is so cute and so soft and so gay and every second I spent playing it gave me serotonin I was desperately in need of. An honest 10/10 for me.

At the beginning you pick from 4 character portraits (2 more femme-presenting, 2 more masc-presenting) and regardless of which you pick you can choose he, she, or they pronouns for both you and your spouse. Also both characters are elderly and have an adult daughter, so depending on how you play elder gay rep!! Aaaah!!

Also also the game takes place in Canada, and the more masc-leaning character designs are brown skinned and at least the long haired one reads as very indigenous-coded which also makes me super happy!

The game is about learning to deal with grief in a healthy way, and involves fishing and cooking and working with your community to better your town. There's also a strong theme of how unfounded superstition, "magical thinking", and unchallenged ignorance can destroy lives and communities, and how to combat that.

All-in-all a spectacular game, please do yourself a favor and play it.
