Fortnightly Recommendations Thread: What is worth a try?
Let everyone know below a game (6+ months old), that you have played recently, are currently playing or intend to play soon. If it's currently on sale, a link to the sale & price would be great.

Stardew valley is passing my expectations tenfold. I thought it was just a farming simulator with terraria combat but nooo. I find myself genuinely wanting to make meaningful relationships with the townsfolk and not wanting to “min max best strat” like I normally do with videogames
I love Stardew Valley but I do tend to struggle with this. Frequently, I find myself slipping into checklist mode ("gotta give a quartz to this person, run over to Clint to get cracking, get back in time to get the iron out").
It is super satisfying to design a cool farm, though!
I had this too. I decided that I'll get the max rating from Grampa and the everything will calm down, but after reaching that point in game I was sort of burnt out and stopped playing.
Also I never could get into the island part of the game. I felt like I abandoned what I worked for all that time!
SDV is great. A lot of people complain that it does make them go crazy over minmaxing and time optimization, but I never had that experience personally.
I know you should and any game like that usually has 1 optimized route but it’s fun just letting go and enjoying the ride.
After I was done with the game (hundreds of hours with my gf in coop), I was convinced the town‘s just a big mental asylum lol, highly recommend
I was surprised how much time I put into it. It is a nice and relaxing way to unwind after a day of work. I like the fact you can play a t in short bursts too if needed.
I'm emulating it on yuzu on the deck, it started as a trial see how the emulator ran and it just sucked me in 😆
Buy it on steam!
I imagine it might be better on battery life if it’s natively being ran too haha
You might like Dinkum or Sun Haven as well.
