It's the strangest thing, I've *had* Moonstone Island in my Steam library for a while, but never really got around to playing it. Then I saw a Fishbo avatar on the Steam Points store and something in me just *craved* this game. I went to check it out and maybe buy it - only to find I've had it for a while.

Tried it out, instantly hooked. How have I NEVER played this before? It's such a great game, super cosy, gorgeous decorations, progression that feels worthwhile and not forced, interesting NPCs, hilarious spirit designs, and tons of customisation and decoration options.

Gorgeous game and 🤏 this close to being a masterpiece, if not for the rather slow progression.

With lines and characters from the 'Epic NPC Man' YouTube series, they created a fishing game with a twist. I really don’t want to spoil anything, so I’m not going to go into detail. I feel like it holds up as a solid game even if you haven’t watched Epic NPC Man… but why wouldn’t you? It’s great!

This game went immediately and directly into my heart. A satisfying loop of digging, cleaning, tinkering and selling, only interrupted by a compelling main story. Lovely system to upgrade and decorate your tools and shop while simulatenously keeping it simple.

Fits perfectly well in the list of Viscera Cleanup Detail and PowerWash Simulator in terms of satisfyingly tidying up a dirty area and returning it to ♥♥♥♥ and span condition. Super funny, especially when you run into your devouring chest for the nth time and have to clean up your own body parts.

Lovely medieval survival / management / city builder / colony sim hybrid that can hold its own against similar games like Aska, Soulmask, Medieval Dynasty, etc.

Could use a little more balancing or indicators of how difficult an encounter is going to be or when ("gear level of some sort?") so that you don't wipe out your entire village and get stuck, but that might be a skill issue, too.

This was recommended to me as "Stacklands but you're a witch" and while I see where they were coming from, I feel like this is such a great game in its own right, it doesn't need the comparison!

WitchHand is a gorgeous card-based management game that does literally everything right except one thing: aligning cards is a tedious task but well worth the hassle!

I didn't realise I had Nova Lands in my library until someone recommend it to me and I was like, "damn, that looks good, let me wishl- oh." and then I couldn't stop playing it.

I have frogs on the brain

Played the demo, loved it, said I'd buy it on release day, did.

Enjoying myself! Lovely game, thanks for scratching my brain itch!
