Arcadian Days

日本に住む私にとって、まず目を奪われたのはルーマニアや東欧の美しい風景でした。普段見慣れない異国の景色がゲーム内で丁寧に描かれており、ただ歩いて探索するだけでも心が満たされます。 昨今のテンポの速い作品が多い中で、本作は飾らないけれど温かい日常を、静かに、そして誠実に描いています。戦闘や強制される目的もなく、自分のペースで世界の空気を味わえる体験は、今のゲームシーンでは貴重だと感じました。 今後も、こうした“体験”を大切にするアップデートが続くことを期待しています。開発者の情熱が伝わってくる、素晴らしい作品です。

This game is a genuine hidden gem, and it's still being actively polished. From the moment I stepped into its world, I didn't feel traditionally "entertained", but rather invited to experience a slower, quieter way of life. I'd never had the chance to learn about Romanian culture, but this game places me in a rural setting inspired by Romanian landscapes, where I take on the role of a child exploring the countryside and helping with simple daily tasks. There's no rush, no clear objective, and very little guidance. Instead, the game relies on environmental storytelling and emotional immersion. In that sense, it feels less like a game and more like a memory you're slowly uncovering. It challenges the idea that a game must constantly reward the player. It doesn't feel like a simulation so much as a reconstruction of memory. It asks for patience, attention, and a willingness to slow down. For players used to fast-paced, reward-driven gameplay, this might feel empty. But for others, it offers a sense of stillness that's increasingly rare. Big studios will be fine without us but indie developers won't. If something made you feel something, support it. That's how these games keep getting made :)

If you want to regain that feeling of connecting with nature, before technology got in the way, this might be the game for you. It's a nice, cozy game, where your main purpose is to run through fields of wheat and flowers, explore forests, listen to the sound of the birds (and sheep!) and just take it easy for once. There is nowhere to rush to, no stamina or food meter to keep an eye on, just pure relaxation under the gentle rays of the sun. Looking forward to see how this game will develop until the official release.

Fun and relaxing exploration game that really emphasises player freedom which I greatly appreciate , it is quite slow paced but I enjoyed finding new things.

Eu entendi a proposta do jogo, e ela é bem interessante — ajudar os pais na fazenda e ter liberdade total para explorar sem tutoriais. Visualmente, o jogo é muito bonito, mas acabei me sentindo meio deslocado, sem um propósito claro. Apesar da liberdade oferecida, senti falta de objetivos ou algo mais envolvente para fazer além de apenas apreciar a paisagem. creio que o game nao é para mim, mas mesmo assim recomendo para quem curta esse estilo.

Arcadian Days is a calm, atmospheric exploration game that focuses on discovery rather than action. You play as Miela, wandering through beautifully detailed environments. The visuals and world design are impressive — especially the nature and lighting — though some character models feel rough compared to the scenery. Performance is decent for an Early Access title, running smoothly on mid-range PCs with only minor stutters. There’s no combat or clear objectives, but that’s part of its charm: it’s about slowing down, observing, and finding small stories hidden in the world.. For its price, it’s worth it if you enjoy relaxing, story-driven experiences. Don’t expect high intensity — expect peace and quiet.

C'est encore un peu tôt mais c'est très intéressant et prometteur. On sent que c'est un premier projet qui a besoin de rodage. La nature est jolie, on joue un gamin dans un coin isolé qui grandit avec sa famille. Après avoir compris comment progresser on se retrouve avec pas mal d'embranchement de choix. C'est vraiment taillé pour les gens qui ont envie de se balader dans un champs au soleil mais qui ont soit une allergie aux graminés, soit bah... dehors il drache haha

Un joc frumos despre originile noastre , despre viata simpla si plina de aventura de la sat. Cu totii cred ca am avut bunicii la tara sau rude si cred ca de acolo de la sat am invatat majoritatea ce inseamna viata cu adevarat. Acest joc mi-a trezit amintirile placute din copilarie si m-am regasit intru totul. Recomand acest joc tutror si sustin neconditionat astfel de proiecte romanesti. Big Up.

I didn't understand the objectives - I think they're not explicit enough. Graphically speaking, the world described by the game is fine, but there are certain things like the items in the backpack that don't load their icons graphically. Then in my mother's garden for example, in two of the 5 pieces of land where it asks to plant vegetables, the game asks for potato seeds even though there's only one potato bush around the house. I accidentally found the cabbage seeds while walking around the map, and I went to where it asked me to plant potatoes and it allowed me to plant those cabbage seeds (the piece of land in the middle, in the group of three to my mother's right). Then in the place allocated for garlic plants, even though I planted the garlic seeds, the box that describes what seeds to plant and where to find them was still there asking me to look for garlic seeds. So, even though I had planted all 5 vegetables, my mother still asked me to look for seeds, making progress impossible. I understood from an online video that the stops would serve as fast travel points, but none of the built stops offered me this option. I once got stuck in a texture between a tree and the river near the house with no way out. I started the game 3 times hoping that maybe I had missed something that would bring me clarity on the game's objectives, but I couldn't find anything of the kind and it was impossible for me to move beyond the scenarios with my father and the house's outbuildings, and my mother with the five pieces of land that need to be planted. The martishor at the beginning, from the tutorial, if I don't take it then, I have nothing else to put in the lilac trees. Although there is another martishor on the table in the room in the house where it initially spawns, it cannot be taken to be hung in the liliac tree like you do with the one in the tutorial. I may return to purchase this game if it improves.

The game looks amazing (just like in the pictures/trailers). There are a few bugs and hiccups, but it's to be expected. I do recommend to try it and enjoy it slow, taking your time with each detail. It might not be much, but it's great. Support small devs!!
