12 itemsAbout the Game
Welcome to a spacious country house in the heart of Russia — a place where time flows differently, where every moment is filled with simple joys and peace. A leisurely life awaits you among green vegetable beds and flowering flower beds, the familiar smells of herbs from childhood, and the rustling of the wind in the birch trees.
Game world
You will find yourself on a suburban plot with a small house, vegetable beds, and a garden surrounding it.
Main activities
1. Vegetable garden and beds
• Planting tomato, cucumber, and potato seeds in designated areas.
• Watering from an old Soviet bathtub.
• Harvesting: juicy tomatoes and crisp cucumbers become your pride and joy.
2. Flower beds
• Planting petunia, marigold, and dahlia seedlings.
3. Preparations
• Mastering home preservation: green tomatoes, cucumbers, and apples for the winter.
4. Household chores
• Cleaning our little house and the surrounding area.
• Repairing the old fence.
Atmosphere and immersion
– Sounds: the soft rustling of leaves, the chirping of grasshoppers.
– Music: light chords of the balalaika and harmonica, folk melodies in a modern arrangement.
– Interface: minimalistic hints with light icons that do not interfere with the contemplative mood.
– Camera: free movement, the ability to capture frames/photos and save them in a photo album.
Why play
This game is not a race for points, but a path to inner balance. It gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the simple but important rituals of country life, feel connected to nature, learn patience and unhurried creativity. Give yourself the opportunity to stop, take a deep breath and enjoy the moment — because this is the real peace.
