About the Game

Explore a fantasy world, use magic and mythical creatures to explore, manage crops, and build community with non-human neighbours.

The environment drastically shifts at nightfall, revealing hidden fantastical creatures, nocturnal magical crops, and spells needed to nurture your farm in ways traditional tools cannot.

Set in a vibrant, undiscovered fantasy world teeming with dormant wonders, mystical biomes, and secrets waiting to be explored by a human from another world.

Whisked away to a magical realm, you must restore an abandoned enchanted farm to its former glory. By mastering the rhythm of the sun and the moon, you will uncover the secrets of the realm and find your true home.

A unique crop system where magic-infused farming replaces mundane chores, focusing on high-value night crops and artisan automation.

Reintroduce the art of traditional agriculture to a wild land. Spend your days tending to nostalgic crops and raising familiar livestock, establishing a stable foundation for the civilization you are rebuilding under the warm sun.

As dusk falls, the night reveals the true nature of this world, offering exotic plants that can only survive in the glow of the moon and elemental beasts that challenge you to adapt to a different rhythm.

Capture and tame elemental creatures to assist in resource gathering, farm management, and exploring new environmental biomes.

Tame elemental spirits to automate your crops with magic, and raise sturdy beasts to aid your exploration. Discover unique synergies between creatures to create a thriving, magical ecosystem on your land.

Wield the forgotten human power to commune with nature. Bond with ethereal elemental spirits and majestic beasts alike.

Become a bridge between worlds by building meaningful relationships with non-human neighbors and helping them revitalize their society.

Curious about your mythical neighbors? Bridge the gap between species by uncovering their unique stories, tastes, and traditions.

Build profound friendships or pursue romance across racial lines to prove that connection knows no boundaries.

Explore vast, otherworldly biomes to find rare species and master the art of breeding to unlock specialized traits and superior elemental skills & materials.

  • Farm

    A secluded valley where ancient, overgrown gears peek through fertile soil.

  • Capital

    A grand, decaying capital built atop massive, medieval human ruins.

  • Forest

    The forest floor slopes down into white-sand shores where the tides wash up old-world debris.

    A dense woodland where massive, ancient trees entwine with crumbling houses.

  • Volcano

    A treacherous landscape of blackened stone and rivers of molten lava. Hidden within the heat are ancient geothermal conduits that once powered a global empire.

  • Dessert

    A vast expanse of golden dunes hiding solar-powered arrays and wind-worn pylons of the old world. Only the hardiest mythical creatures can survive the scorching sun and sandstorms.

  • Winter

    A frozen wasteland where skeletal remains of creatures are preserved. The silence of the blizzard is broken only by the cry of frost-adapted creatures.
