About the Game

Being a spy on an unfamiliar planet, anyone would have been greeted with hostility, but you were incredibly lucky! Trusting locals mistook you for a new neighbor and provided you with a house and a plot of land to live on.
         

You'll have to help out the locals: learn their stories, make "friends" or even something more.

Win favour of the villagers, impress them with your achievements.

  • Become a champion fisherman by showing patience and wits.

  • Engage in farming and grow various crops.

  • Descend and explore the long-abandoned dungeons that hide secrets of the island.

  • Show off your culinary skills by cooking flavourful dishes.

What drew attention of the command to this planet? Is this really a paradise island, or is its allure merely a deceptive facade?

Get to know your new friends better and find the one who really holds a threat to everyone.
