About the Game

Enter the life of Ms. Gillian Pomefroy, an ex-mariner with a knack for adventure and a memory that isn't what it used to be. Entrusted with your late lover's lighthouse, it's time to put your sailing days to bed and embrace the simpler joys in life.

To fill out your life, you'll need to help the townspeople of Rusticola Island and let them help you in return. In between, take time to enjoy the little things. Build a crackling fire, snap photos of rare birds, pet your skeptical cat — and isn’t it time you finally decorated this place?

Features

  • Explore picturesque Rusticola Island through the seasons and meet its endearing and mischievous citizens

  • Play a dozen unique minigames; build birdhouses, go sailing, or beat the kids at their own game of ‘Old Man Towers’

  • Collect secret treasures and display them in your illustrated lighthouse, featuring hand-drawn animations of Ms. Pomefroy and her cat, Tella

  • Forget some things. But remember
