Hisato no Saku

I was looking forward to this based on cool art style and hoped for a chill game similar to "papers, please" So far it's delivering on my expectations. The gameloop is somewhat random, and there aren't so many 'stranger' types I've encountered, so it seems fun to replay but not infinitely so (and FWIW the slow text scroll to end each night can't be skipped). Update: I've had no issues since the developer's first update. It runs as expected and is a fun 20-40 minute challenge I still haven't beat. Recommended.

A unique and interesting experience for less then a price of a fancy consumable drink, yes please.

Amazing music, fun aesthetic, combat can be a challenge.

A quick, fun, and replayable experience. I failed pretty quickly on my first playthrough, but on my second I made it all the way to the end and did fairly well with my food stores and my village survived the winter. Thinking I had it all figured out, I played again a couple days later and was not able to achieve the same success again, failing a number of times, and making it to the end once but without enough food stored for my whole village. There are a lot of little details to pick up on for strategy, and then of course there is some luck involved as well. I hope to eventually make it to the end with a village population that is actually happy but I have a feeling that will take some time.

What an amazing and fun game. Quick to play, quick to learn. The struggle between being kind to strangers and putting the village first is tough.

Fun little adventure - haven't played a game that challenged me to figure out what to do like this in a while! Love the big mood from the music and art, especially the samurai movie drums when a big foe appears. I'm still not sure what to do to keep the poor fella alive, tbh, but it's fun to try!

An interesting idea with good art and music, but the encounters get repetitive almost immediately and the combat is so basic that I wish it wasn't there at all. The story is also extremely minimal, which isn't really what I was hoping for from a game that describes itself as a light role playing adventure. I don't think it's bad, especially not for $5, but it's not for me.

Fun lil gb style rpg/resource manager! Quick to pick up and play, with interesting and unique mechanics.

Lovely game! Very fun to try out different styles of play with.
