A Dark Twist on Farming Games
Imagine landing on a remote island with labyrinthine forests, beaches, and bone-chilling caves full of secrets. Now, imagine that this adventure also involves farming - that's Harvest Island, the upcoming horror farming game from Yobob Games.
Unlike other farming games, Harvest Island doesn't just offer sunny fields and cheerful crop planting. Instead, you delve into a dark world reminiscent of a spooky version of Stardew Valley. Explore abandoned mines, uncover your father's dark past, and befriend the island's animals.
You decide how to play
Harvest Island offers both a story mode for fans of narrative-driven games and a more agriculture-focused style for players seeking a more lighthearted experience. So, how you play is entirely up to you. But regardless of your preferences, you can experience all the essential elements such as upgrading the farm and exploring the island.
Unique features: The day-night cycle
One standout feature of Harvest Island is the day-night cycle. You don't have to sleep when the sun sets and the moon rises. In fact, the developer says, "When night falls, the caves glow, the forest sings and sparkles with fireflies, and the shore recedes, creating an ebb." It will be exciting to see how well the farming genre blends with horror elements.
When can you play?
The developer has announced that Harvest Island will launch on Tuesday, October 10th. The game can now be added to your wishlist on Steam.
Conclusion
Whether you're a fan of farming games or simply looking for something new, Harvest Island has a lot to offer. With its unique blend of agriculture and horror, it could be exactly what you've been searching for.
