I am surprised this game does not receive more love, especially with the low price tag. It took me over 60 hours to get through the main story, of course there is possibility for longer play time if you aim to complete achievements and such. What surprised me a lot is that majority of the quests are voice acted, especially the main story missions.

If you don’t care for the farming aspect that is good news for you, I have planted about ten seeds the entire duration and it wasn’t really necessary. The game mostly focuses on crafting and building, resources for these can be obtained in multiple ways - getting your hands dirty or paying someone to do it for you.

There is a combat but it is a very simple hit and roll type, it is very low risk as death does not cause you to lose items.

I especially loved how befriending the townies went, they are related to one another so achieving higher friendship with one will cause your relationship with the others in their circle increase as well.

Another interesting mechanic is the stats you get from furniture placed in your home - encouraging you to decorate, though I do have say I wish we had more furniture, both in quality and versatility. Still, that is not enough of a pain point for me to remove a point from rating.

I did play this on PC, but earlier I had a copy for Switch and while it runs… okay, I would recommend getting PC version.
