What’s New in the Demo
For returning players, the forest just got bigger. The updated demo adds a new map to forage, giving Gendo more ground to cover and more ingredients to carry home.
It’s also a first look at what’s waiting in the full game. Gendo can now upgrade his home and teahouse, and a new trader has set up shop. There’s also a new mining minigame for digging up resources. Slow days just got a little busier.
About the Game
A cozy life sim where you forage, cook and serve your way through Gendo’s journey navigating an abundant, ever changing landscape. After long days of gathering goodies, return to your cozy home to prepare, cook and serve your dishes to the local townsfolk. Join Gendo in his life in the countryside.
