People will drawn comparisons with Stardew Valley, and I agree up until a point - It has a really laid back atmosphere that's felt down to the smallest sound effect, you're the new kid on the block and your success is down to your own pursuits, you can farm or go mining, and good lord the soundtrack is incredible and perfect for the setting.

Not only it serves prominent narration, the pixelated graphics are astonishing too.

7 of 81 sampled reviews raised it
There's a nice scaling difficulty level that you can use at the start of your game and the map is nicely designed in a way that you can't encounter monsters too dangerous too quickly, which allows you to spend a little while exploring the areas in the immediate vicinity as you gradually expand outwards.
