Cozy hobbit game Tales of the Shire won me over with a subtly brilliant feature I've never seen in a farm life sim before

Cooking is the major focus in Tales of the Shire, but befriending the citizens of your hobbit town will play a big part, too.

Birds will sit on signposts and branches and point their beaks in the direction of objectives. The article does not post a picture of this.
- Weird. Subtle signposting is not exactly a new feature, even if this form kind of is? The path of grace in Elden Ring, yellow paint in every first person game with parkour, and the wind in Ghosts of Tsushima all come to mind.
  
  The path of grace is literally a giant yellow floating laser pointing in a general direction. It's not precise, but "subtle" is not exactly the word I would use.
