❤ Cultivating the Farm

Players start with a basic farm setup, including plots for planting crops and pens for housing animals like cows, chickens, goats, and sheep. As the game progresses, you can expand your farm by building new structures and acquiring more animals. The farming mechanics are relatively simple, requiring you to water crops and harvest them at the appropriate times. However, the farming aspects are not the main focus, as the narrative and exploration elements take precedence. You can choose to engage with the farming and animal care as much or as little as you prefer.

❤ Gathering Resources and Crafting

The game encourages you to explore the island and gather various resources, such as coconuts, seaweed, and peculiar items like nine-armed starfish and beetles. You can then use these gathered items to craft tools and other useful items at the workbench, such as ladders, ropes, and fishing poles. The crafting system is straightforward, allowing you to progress your exploration and farming capabilities as you acquire new recipes and materials. Some players have noted that the inventory management can be frustrating, as storage space is limited.

❤ Fishing and Offering to the Gods

Another key gameplay element is the ability to fish around the island. Different types of fish can be caught depending on the time of day, location, and bait used. The caught fish can then be cooked and consumed to gain blessings from the gods, which can be used to upgrade the farm and progress the story. You are also tasked with making "Harvest Offerings" to the gods, which involves gathering specific items from around the island and presenting them. In return, the gods bestow blessings upon you, unlocking new upgrades and story elements.

❤ Exploring the Mysterious Island

The island is described as having a maze-like layout, with various hidden locations and passages to discover. You are encouraged to explore the environment, interacting with it and uncovering the game's mysterious and dark narrative. The progression of the story is not always linear, requiring you to trigger certain events or find specific items to advance the plot. This can lead to moments of uncertainty, as the game does not always provide clear objectives or directions.
