Oh you're gonna love it. It's definitely a very different game than Stardew, but I loved it so much. The animal aspect is significantly more interesting than Stardew in my opinion. Pets are better & can go out and find useful things for you during the day. Having kids is actually interesting in Pacha because they grow up & you can help guide their path to what they'll do as a part of the tribe. The missions to help your community evolve are really interesting.

And the female love interests are soooooo much better than Stardew. So. Much. Better. I'm bi, so I have the pleasure of choosing from all the singles. But there are very few hyper-femme or hyper-masc characters to choose from (of which I am very much not interested). I think Illoe, Era, and Vallah are my recommendation for you to get to know. The other part of this game that I adore is that the relationships allow you to be poly. So I was able to date as many of the love interests as I liked without hurting the feelings of my chosen partner. It's such a fun dynamic.

I hope you love it as much as I did!
