There are 3 things that made me go for Kynseed, despite not being a huge fan of cozy farming life sim type games: 1. There are no time requirements for getting things done. After a couple (literally 2) mandatory timed events in the game's prologue, you are free to choose exactly what to do when for the remainder of your playthrough. No more Atlus-style calendar to loom over your experience, making you regret choosing one activity over another. 2. Hilarious, reference-filled writing replete with wordplay, innuendo and dad jokes. 3. A unique pixel-art style that really stands out from the Stardew pack. I knew going in that there was some supernatural / fae stuff involved, but I didn't realize we were talking Midsommar / Wicker Man type shiz! No regrets tho, I love things dark, and honestly wouldn't mind if things got even darker than they do here. There are so many things I love about Kynseed, but if I had to put my finger on my single favourite aspect, it's the first time exploring a newly-opened section of the world's expansive map. When a new region would open, I'd saddle up my pig, bring my trusty dog along, and go in for that exhilarating first tour, picking up everything I found and looking for the (often cleverly hidden) mapstones. At this point, with 80+ hours in, I only have a couple more regions left to explore. But there are still tons of other reasons to keep playing. The mini-games are plentiful, and while some work better for me than others (e.g. I adore most cooking, i like fishing, i'm not nuts about crafting lotions), we are truly spoiled for variety. I've seen that Kynseed's combat really rubs some people the wrong way. Being a pretty bad player at anything reflex-based, I prepared going in by taking advantage of the game's generous Accessibility option to reduce enemies' speed, and after a couple sword upgrades I am finding combat to not only be tolerable but truly fun! Honestly, I got lots more I could say about Kynseed, but I'd rather get back to playing it. Byeeeee

I'm obsessed with farming/simulation games. All the way back to harvest moon, rune factory, animal crossing, stardew valley, my time at portia/sandrock, cult of the lamb - if it has cows and sheep, I'll give it a try. Most games in this genre do not have a strong story, and have very simple combat if they have any combat at all. It's an egregious lack that I've been chasing ever since Rune Factory let me kaiju battle my way to master farmer. Yes, give me cozy, but also let me have fun playing a game! This game? Kynseed? This game RULES. I didn't take it seriously at first, until I beat the tutorial and got my ass handed to me by a freakin' level 2 goblin... thing. The combat in this game is complex, and really fun! The characters are interesting, and the overarching storyline has me guessing like none of these games have in the past. What the HECK is going on? Why am I an orphan? What do the fey creatures want from me, and how do they relate to these goddesses that rule humanity with an iron fist? Where do all of these magical portals lead to?! It's a mystery, with some great tongue-in-cheek humor, as you discover more about this crazy world. I haven't even opened up the entirety of the map, or gotten married, but this game has me hooked, and I think you should give it a try - if you also like games with cows and sheep.

Kynseed is a game that I followed since early access. That said, I didn't buy the game until after many of the newest updates. It has gone through SO MANY changes and updates that makes this game now one of my top favourites on Steam besides Stardew Valley. I have noticed it's being compared a lot to SDV and Story of Seasons (Harvest Moon for the old school lovers). And I have to say that comparison is completely off the mark for me. Yes, Kynseed has farming, fishing and cooking that gives it a similar vibe to SDV of SoS but that's where the similarities end for me personally. Kynseed is SO much more, in my opinion. It has so many more mechanics when it comes to mini-games, owning a shop, the battles against monsters in the Woods, the story and lore that goes with it. Even the cooking is so different (I especially have a hate-love relationship with the soup making) The characters you meet, the skills and funny traits you can sometimes find on your neighbours or yourself can cause comical interactions (looking at you Flatulence trait) and the best part (again) for me personally, is the fact that you can waste away your days without being forced to sleep as an adult. I love that I can take my time with both the story and my character. If I want to offer all my years of life to Fairweather to get all the arcane items, no problem! You get an orphan to take the Kynseed over from you and begin anew. Or if you got married and had kids, any adult child can be your heir and voilà ... new start with more traits and better stats (because of course the next gen is always better LOL XD) The world of Kynseed is your oyster. For me this is perfect, I don't have to min-max anything, I don't need to be perfect, I don't have to rush to get things done because there is no time constraint. To someone like me this is relaxing AF. All that said and done, the only negative point I personally have with Kynseed is the star rating conditions of nearly everything. OMG I'm mean seriously, if there's anything that could use a bit of QoL update it's that. Some items like fruit or fish have such specific star rating requirements that I just ignore it most of the time, unless I need high quality for skills trees or if I just got lucky. All in all if you're like me and you love taking your time just running around gathering items, or forging at the blacksmith or being the best cook in all the Havens or sharpening your weapons to take on all the monsters or owning every single shop the Havens have to offer or simply raising a family and watch as the generations after you grow up... Then Kynseed is the place to be.

Kynseed is a beautifully done generational rpg game, It can be painfully pun-y at times, and maybe a little cheesy, but: -the story is great -the fishing isn't a massive pain. -there's lots of different stuff to spend your time doing -the characters are diverse and constantly changing (albeit they can be a *bit* weird at times) - after adulthood you don't *have* to sleep and there isn't an energy bar so you can just do stuff as much or as little as you want. If you enjoy fairy-tales and slightly cringe worthy jokes, Kynseed is a great game to check out.

The big build update partially fixes the reason I stopped playing a few weeks after launch - no compelling reason to make money or own a business. I found it baffling that so much of the gameplay was about selling things, operating a shop, etc. and there was essentially nothing interesting to do with money. Except…buy another shop. However, I do hope and wish there is an NPC update in the works. It feels really disappointing to hear the same few lines of dialogue over and over. Makes me feel like there’s no reason to talk to or do anything for these NPCs. And call me uptight, but there is only a certain amount of scatalogical humor that a person over 12 can take. Especially when it’s on repeat. And this might just be me, but I have a super hard time telling the NPCs apart visually when they’re just walking around. I’ve never had this problem with any other game, so it’s kind of strange. Still, it’s a good game. My personal preferences might not be yours, so give it a try.
