Grimshire

[5/5]

This game is Stardew Valley on Nightmare mode, with very charming furries. It's still early access, so there's only one in-game-year worth of content. But that content took me 40+ hours, and I was not faffing around. I did my first run of the game on Grim difficulty, completely blind, and only lost two of the villagers, but they were two of my favorites. Yes, these people can and will die, and you WILL care about them by the time they do. The characters are cute and the worldbuilding is interesting without being too heavy. Bad things keep happening to this cute little village, and that kept me on my toes - I was always hustling to try and get materials to complete a quest before the deadline. The consequences if you don't can be dire. If I could ask for anything in the 'final' version of this game, I would want more story focused content. I want to know more about the villagers and even the world outside of Grimshire, if I can find time to do story quests in between frantically fishing to fill the larder for our carnivores.

What I appreciate most about Grimshire is that it doesn't settle for being just another cozy farming game. Beneath the relaxing routine is a constant sense that something isn't quite right. The looming illness, the atmosphere, and the way the game always feels like it's pushing you to do better every day. You're never fully comfortable, and it often feels like you're one mistake away from failing, which keeps you on edge and makes even ordinary tasks feel important. Definitely looking forward to future updates and year 2 updates!

존잼 스듀 하면서 하품 참으면서 재밌는척 했었는데 이건 미묘한 긴장감도 계속 유지하면서 내가 원했던 장르의 스토리여서 넘 개취

Love this game, the devs clearly care about their work and it's been a fun challenge to play through the story and learn about all the characters. Highly recommend playing! Go at it blind and just do the best you can, the story hits that much harder when you're struggling and trying to make ends meet.

my jaw was on the floor for so many parts i cant wait till the full release!

I never played a farming sim before, but this game's narrative concept was really appealing. I enjoyed playing through the first year (all content there is at this moment). The characters are cute and likeable. The narrative is compelling and terrifying. The gameplay is fun and intuitive. If the concept behind this game is interesting to you, then you should try it. Great game and I am looking forward to the future updates.
