The value story

It has never been cheaper than $6.24. That was December 2025. 35 discounts in the 8 years on record. They run about 33 percent off, roughly 7 weeks apart.

Value puts it in the top 7 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 93 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 83 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Littlewood ($14.99, scores 88) beats it on value, while it beats Little Witch in the Woods ($19.99, scores 62).

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 11 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written August 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 71 percent of the 491 reviews written there were positive, against 83 percent overall, and those are 14 percent of everything written about it.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, so it runs on the handheld without fiddling.

What players say

Thought I was playing a ~ chill Stardew-like ~ until I inadvertently condemned an old man I was friends with to be a sacrifice to the Fae goddesses. So now I'm playing an un-chill Stardew-like.

wtf guys you litereally made the perfect game - I would pay 3x as much for this level of attention to detail in a game

Can't stop playing. Now my thumb hurt. I can see how this game could have additional features, but I'm happy with what we already have.
