Stardew Valley is perhaps the most unassuming & surprising game out there.
Living on a virtual farm will have you dutifully tending to chores you can’t be bothered with in real life.
You start it up on a Sunday evening thinking you’ll play for 15 minutes, and when you tear your eyes away from the screen, it’s suddenly Monday morning and you’ve been awake for 30 hours straight. (I may be speaking from experience)
Yeah, Stardew is hard to tear yourself away from. But if your cows and your crops are all okay, why not rest your eyes by looking through some Stardew memes?
And when you’re done, get back to it. You still have to buy new seeds before Pierre closes up shop for the entire day, dammit.
