To read more have a scroll down and be prepared for .
Forget boring parsnips and carrots, how about Pompadoots, Zinookas, and Fartichokes?
It’s a delicate ecosytem.
Instead of growing veggies and milking cows, you’re rearing cute, bouncing slimes.
So make no misktake, this is a farming game with a gooey, rebellious centre.
It’s not all just about spending time with the dead, though.
And remember: you have to juggle all this while looking after the graveyard.
Just watch out for that donkey, though.
He’ll be unionising and demanding ever more carrots per corpse before you know it.
And that being the case, what’s even the point?
So stick to Farming Sim 22.
It might not look quite as cosy and wholesome as Stardew Valley, but these furrows rundeep.
You, playing solo or in co-op, live in a village as part of a community.
It’s top down and 2D, and it’s all in cute little pixelart.
Look at those sunflowers.
it’s possible for you to’t grow potatoes without first discovering potatoes as a concept, right?
It puts a big twist on the genre, while still keeping the basics of the Stardewlike intact.
Plus: baby mammoths!
What more encouragement do you need?
The game starts out small, but even simple tasks have surprising depth to them.
And so it goes on.
Seriously, everyones favourite part is the happy little cows.
To help players along is a charming town filled with shops, amenities, and pleasant patrons.
Theres also an incredibly handy fast travel system letting you zip around the island.
All this accumulates in a feeling that youre making more and more progress each day.
You’re incentivised because the trash you collect when diving is actually a super useful crafting resource.
It really brings the idea of living in harmony with nature into a key part of the game itself.
Wylde Flowers
Wylde Flowers hits some of the story beats you might expect.
Move to a rural town, helping an elderly relative, etc.
You know, stuff rural people do all the time!
But you also get to become a witch, i.e.
fly a broomstick, cast spells, and the ol' favourite of turning into a cat.
It’s an impressive addition.
The focus on the community here is what is special about Spiritfarer.
Its a lovely game.
Dinkum
Dinkum is another early access title, but wow is the current release build pretty solid.
If youre after both a Stardew-likeandAnimal Crossing in one, Dinkum is the perfect middle ground.
What separates it though, is its scope.
Theres so much potential for a god-tier farming empire.
Also, did I mention there are alligators?
Because there are alligators.
Fae Farm
Fae Farm is similar to Coral Island in some respects.
And at the end of the day you might pull up some juicy turnips.
Do you think we missed something?
As always, consider writing an impassioned celebration of the game you love that isn’t here.
You might convince others to give it a go.
