    Ooh can you tell me a bit more about spiritfarer? I bought it excitedly a few months ago but stuff happened and I didn’t play it for a long time. And now I find it kinda hard to get back to it. Also I seen to be stuck with some basic early missions

        Ooh, thank you very very much for the detailed reply. I think I should just restart the campaign. I do really being awed by the visuals of the game, with all the handdeawm graphics.

        I think the part where I was stuck was that I needed to find something on the map marked by a snake, but I never found the marker and the resource management seemed a bit grind-y. But anyway, I think I’ll give it a shot again. In general I’m a bit new to gaming and getting used to some of the repetitive(?) mechanics

      Stovetop gives a great explanation of the mechanics so I’ll just add about the vibes. Spiritfarer is sweet and kind at its heart. The main interface of the game is giving hugs and cooking the favourite foods of your passengers. You explore both physically in your boat and in the lives of your friends, and hopefully you come to understand a little bit about life and death. And patience too, sometimes you’re not really stuck you’re just not ready yet.

        This is precious what made me buy it. This and the beautiful visuals. I will for sure give it another shot!
