🌴 Deiland Fans, This One’s for You 🌴 If you loved Deiland, you’re going to love this — and I’m definitely one of those people. ⏳ Hooked Instantly: I started playing and the first 5 hours just vanished. It’s that kind of game — calm, cozy, and somehow always giving you just one more thing to do. 🌱 Familiar Vibes (in a good way): The UX feels just like Deiland — familiar trees, vegetables, mushrooms in the rain… but with a bit more depth and variety. I’m still early in the game, but I already know I’ll be sinking more hours into it. 🛶 Relaxing & Rewarding: So far, I actually think I like this even more than Deiland, and honestly, that’s exactly how a good sequel or follow-up should feel. ⚠️ A Few Frustrations: Some activities do start to feel repetitive — like picking the same orange for the 100th time. Also, the tutorial could use more clarity. I found myself Googling how to sell items or where to check my ongoing quests, because the game didn’t explain it well. 👍 Final Verdict: Loving it so far — a peaceful, engaging experience that builds on what Deiland started. A few rough edges, but still worth the journey.

This is a truly lovely and family-friendly game. It deals (gently) with themes of environmentalism, death/loss/memory, neighbors and community, and more. The gameplay loop never grew tedious to me, although at times figuring out what I needed to do next from cryptic quest log text ("Something interesting will happen soon! - meant I had to sail to a specific map spot, as one example) required me to check a guide online. It is only loosely a farming/lifestyle simulator--more emphasis on finding and delivering certain items in the later parts of the game over the farming elements. So don't come here looking for a Story of the Seasons clone, but don't be driven away by assuming the farming will be cumbersome! The game is beautiful and bright, and the characters have more personality in them than many AAA rpgs. I have a lot more quest content ahead of me and I'm at 13 hours played. I imagine without checking guides too often that I'll get at least 20 hours to complete the story and maybe most of the sidequests, but beyond that there are also collectibles to find. I think Chibig tells great small(er) stories. I'm glad I bought this game and will probably pick up Mika at some point as a result of my positive experience with this one.

A fun little farming sim adventure game. Does feel like most of the focus is on the story and questing element, but you have to do a little farming, mining and foraging to get by. I like Koa a lot as a protag as she kind of grows as a person as you progress the story. There's a ton of quests to do so the game is gonna take a while to get through especially if you do all the quests. There's a few minor things I'm not a big fan of, but those are mostly QOL things like not being able to buy or sell in bulk. It's got most of the modern QOL stuff though. Anyway, I'd say the game is an 8/10 for me.

Be prepared to suffer some serious hand cramps as you hold down SHIFT to sprint everywhere doing endless fetch quests! Cute, great story, a tug on the heartstrings. So much running though... -_- It pays to have at least 5 of anything in your inventory just in case someone asks for something. Once you have some cash you can fast travel. A bit buggy as hell, but if you exit and re-enter the game, or just finish off the main quests then it seems to sort itself out. Pro-tips: * You need money, and it can be hard to come by. Buy cotton seeds from Caleb. Then make wooden boat models to sell back to him. It's a lucrative money making scheme. You're going to need money! * You have max of 99 items in a stack, so don't bother harvesting anything that'll take you over. Sell the excess or make things to sell. * Don't try to find all the mail crabs, there is a bug, and two of them cannot be found - ever. Just don't even bother. * Once you can get pigs, get cheap carrot seeds from Caleb (along with your cotton seeds) and feed your pigs. 4 pigs fed = truffles. Sell truffles to pirates for mega bucks! * During some events your fast travel won't work anymore, it's not a bug, it's a "feature"... * Go back to the lighthouse after the end game, there is one more quest!
