Forager - wow, I'm addicted.

Forager - wow, I'm addicted. Forager is an absurdly addicting game where you start with building a small base on a tiny island, gather resources, and buy neighboring lands to expand your manufacturing empire.  I have the game on Steam and I couldn't turn away after several hours of playthrough as there are apparently other things that adults must do. Ugh. Responsibilities! PROS: It's easy to pick up, but difficult to put down! Premise looks promising Build and battle Mighty portable More free content coming up CONS: One pet per play No multiplayer Hold one key for most of the time FPS bug on PC? It's easy to pick up, but difficult to put down! (top) Forager is easy to grasp: the player goes around mining rocks, chopping trees, harvesting resources in order to build structures to c

Hokko Life - do stuff or sleep so the trees can grow!

Hokko Life is a life sim game where you unexpectedly stop over in the town of Hokko and find yourself helping the townsfolks restore their once lively town by promoting their tourism. The game is still on its Early Access on Steam, but there are many activities now live which are also similar to Animal Crossing.

Look for Len in Len's Island - Review

Image
Len's island is a survival game set on a mysterious island where you must find food, gather resources, and build a shelter to survive. You'll be chopping up wood, foraging for berries, and exploring the island to establish your footing. Soon you discover that you are not alone and must develop a thriving homestead on the island later on. Len's island is still on Early Access. The early build is playable and I haven't run into any bugs but it is lacking dialogue and quests. Players can use the point and click or WASD control mechanic.  Life-Sim and Survival Town of Bridgewater Dungeon Crawling Colorful Graphics Conclusion Life-Sim and Survival (top) The house building in Len's Island is simple to grasp as exterior structures snap by the grid while indoor furniture can be placed by the pixel. Crafting involves the usual gathering the necessary resources such as wood, stones, and fiber. You'll then be able to craft tools and furniture. More furnitur
