How it feels

A calm and cozy life sim about farming, fishing, and building a life in a medieval-inspired open world, currently in a transitional state with development paused.

What players say

Players compare it favorably to Stardew Valley, praising the relaxed pacing with no penalty for staying up late. The grind-heavy start and lack of danger (the player cannot die or get hurt) divide opinion. Development is active, with a responsive developer addressing bugs quickly.
