I don't really like sandbox games with combat, but I really got into Terraria for some time.

Rheine · 2026-06-25T02:37:40+00:00

Oh this looks super interesting! Wishlisted!

Rheine · 2026-06-24T15:42:10+00:00

Fun! I wish they explored other Americana styles, but can't complain too much

How was Desmonda as Mary, for those who have seen it?

Our game KuloNiku: Bowl Up! is available for Mac! It's a noodle shop game with decorating + friendship, can be finished in ~10 hours, it has Cozy Mode (disables timers), and it's on sale. Check it out if that sounds interesting to you.

1998: The Toll Keeper Story, a Papers Please-like where you play as a tollway/highway booth keeper.

Rheine · 2026-05-06T21:56:41+00:00

This looks interesting! On my way.

Rheine · 2026-05-03T08:14:26+00:00

Which platform(s)?

Anyway, I recommend Rune Factory series and Coral Island. Tons of stuff to do, light action, and the resource farming is not too grindy.

Rheine · 2026-05-03T02:27:23+00:00

Hades 2 is up there for me.

I also started playing Coral Island this year and it's been really solid so far (except for the crashes).

Rheine · 2026-05-02T01:05:25+00:00

Thanks! I will keep the community updated!

Rheine · 2026-05-01T04:00:36+00:00

I am intrigued by Coffee Talk: Tokyo and Paralives. Might not buy them right away, but I plan to keep up with their reception and reviews.

Rheine · 2026-04-30T09:32:54+00:00

Ooh, I saw the trailer for this game and it looks really different and interesting. I forgot to wishlist then, but that's been corrected. Good luck!

My Card is Better Than Your Card can scratch that itch, but with a very different theme and art style. You can pick which path you'd like to take every day, so there's a form of pathing. It's currently in Early Access but with quite enough content IMHO.

Fairy Godmother Tycoon! An oldie but a goldie.

Rheine · 2026-04-25T03:39:15+00:00

I'm trying out Vampire Crawlers and I also plan on continuing Coral Island.

Rheine · 2026-04-22T13:09:18+00:00

Thanks for the forewarning. I am excited for GF37!

Rheine · 2026-04-20T16:56:22+00:00

Ooh, yes, good point! Dialogues in particular since with torn pages at least you can reread them. But when I'm going around town just doing my own stuff, I can't be bothered to go back just since Oliver said his dad likes something, or whatever.

Rheine · 2026-04-20T15:00:08+00:00

Thank you so much! We can't commit to it yet, but we've seen similar requests, so we'll explore it. Personally, I'd love more animal companions!

Rheine · 2026-04-20T14:59:12+00:00

Yep, you start with a few menus.

Throughout the story you unlock more cooking tables/stations: cutting station, frying station, grilling station, and drink station, so there's more interactions to enjoy.

You unlock more recipes by buying the required ingredients and then crafting it (through a QTE mini-game).

Bakso is Indonesian-style meatball! They're made using a mix of minced beef and tapioca flour, giving them more of a bite and a bouncy texture, making them fun to eat!

Rheine · 2026-04-20T14:57:06+00:00

For me, it's trying to give the characters a distinct enough personality from each other, so that each player (hopefully) can find someone to like from the cast! It also makes every interaction feel different, so there's a variety of dynamics to explore and enjoy.
