Farm Together
I loved this game SO much. I often left it running idle (hence my 3000 hours logged, yikes) so that I could check in to find crops already grown, eggs already laid by chickens, etc. I played alone, I played with my boyfriend, I played with strangers. Its screenshots became my laptop backgrounds and my calendar pages. Its music became the soundtrack of my life for a year. This game was wonderful. Thank you devs! :)

It is a great relaxing game. You can play with friends and help each other out. There is always something to do and the events are always fun.

太平洋之嵐6 ～ 史上最大的激戰諾曼第攻防戰! Pacific Storm 6 - Battle for Normandy
Only Chinese (Traditional and Simplified) and Japanese support, as far as I can tell. No English, despite what the Steam page says. Too bad, I was very disappointed.
While I was playing around for the required 5 minutes to submit a review, I chose the Japanese option for language, as I can at least recognize some of the characters. The voiceover text seemed to be in Japanese, and as far as I can tell most of the interface remained in Japanese as well. However, it looks like the unit description (?) page is only Chinese text . I could be mistaken.

Viridi
Disclaimer: I beta tested this game.
Viridi is exactly what it says on the tin: it’s a little virtual garden where you watch your plants grow.
The gameplay itself is minimalistic. Apart from planting your succulents, watering them, and zooming in to sing at them, there’s very little else you can do. It’s supposed to be a very zen experience — similar to keeping actual plants — so if you expect more interactivity than that then this is not the game for you. I usually had it on in the background while I went on with my day as always (hence my exorbitant playtime), but you don’t need to leave it on all the time. Your plants will grow just fine while the game is closed as well, so if you only want to spend 5 minutes a day checking up on your plants, then you can do that too. As you can see the joy of the game doesn’t lie within its interactivity, but rather within owning a virtual garden in itself.

Inch by inch… Calmly
snail crawls around the pot. Zen.
Watching grass grow.
…………
In real life I’ve killed more plants than I can (or would bother) count. In Viridi I can feel like an expert gardener, and without a stress of real gardening. Au contraire - it is an awesome stress reliever (and believe me - I know about stress!).
This game requires a really low level of skills, there’s no steep learning curve, you don’t have to spend hours trying to beat something or find some other-thing or figure out some puzzle. You just open the game once a day (or even not every day, or maybe 2-3 times a day - up to your liking), water your plants and pluck weeds. Once a week you get a free seed that you can add to your existing pot, or keep it for the future, or trade with other players.

Farm World
I tried to like it, I gave it 3 hours.
I should have asked for a refund. As it is it should be at most £1.
Instead of listing the many many falts with this game i will simply say dont buy it.

i have tried everything to make money in this game. my silos are full of fruit and grains. Miller is working and products being delivered to shops (fruit dinks and bakery) i still cannot get people to buy from ANY shops. Please fix this. People complain they are thirsty. The shop IS open and I have set the price fo a dollar with a cash machine beside it. Until this is fixed I cannot recommend the game.

Sumerians
If you like games like Caesar, Pharaoh and Banished you’ll be right at home!
II feel the game is a good mix between those titles, I really like how Sumerians basically gives up proximity as a rule for assigning people to jobs, which allows you to build prettier cities.
Production chains are dependent on “transporters”, once you get the hang of how they work it’s relatively easy and satisfying to set up chains and different types of economic areas and keep everything tidy and functional.
the only downsides I found are the fact the game begins slowing down quiet a bit after 1k population, however by reducing graphic settings will help, particularly the number of “agents” (NPCs) on the map, that said the game itself still runs fine up to 25k in my personal experience and I’ve seen some people saying they had no problems at 60k.

Great concept, though it still needs a ton of optimization work.
Just as an example,
I currently have a city with about 5,000 people. I also have a ton of state farms (grows grain which is the currency and food for your people). Earlier in game, when I had only about 1,000 people, one state farm could easily handle a full field on it’s own when fully staffed. But now that I’ve reached such a high population, it seems like my people have gone stupid and can’t even handle a quarter of the same field they used to be able to grow.

Ostriv
I recommend this game… but…
I would wait on purchasing a copy of this early access version until a significant update comes out. I purchased this game originally from the dev’s website, as it wasn’t yet available on Steam, back in 2019. I learned quickly that the computer I had at that time could not run the game very well and only played it for a few hours. It was intriguing enough for me to keep the game. Unfortunately for me, I lost the update link the dev provided when I purchased it.

I’ve never written a review before, such has this game grabbed me I felt I needed to share some thoughts.
Firstly: It’s early access, don’t expect a finished article, there are bound to be bugs. Start with an accepting and forgiving mindset and this game will eat your hours up.
Starting simply from a camp to the urgency of building homes for your campers before the winter comes, you can build a whole town, industry, and more! This game seems to operate on two levels; one being a simple design and build sandbox but the other being more a chess like social development game.

De’Vine: World of Shadows
I definitely recommend this game. The developer is friendly, engages with players, listens to suggestions and is really invested in the game, releasing new features and fixing bugs.
The story is very short, you can complete it in a few hours. However, the sidequests and additional content the game provides will give you hours of enjoyment. Although I have to admit that I felt somewhat disappointed with the story, not because it was bad, but because of how short it was, it left me wanting to know more about the lore and what’s going to happen next. On the other hand, that’s good on its own way, I’m looking forward to next installment in the series.

De’Vine is a great game, it was an unique experience playing a RPG Maker game that is open world (and the world is HUGE). I really liked the story, it’s well balanced in the dark and light themes. The developer is also very responsive, he answered a lot of my questions and fixed some minor bugs I reported really quick.
It has countless features: extensive card game, survival features, crafting, farming, MANY side quests, a lot of recruitable characters, and many others. Of the many features this game have, I loved the card game. The card game is amazing, a lot of strategies to use and a lot of cards to collect. The essence aspect of the card game is also very interesting, specially for Pokemon fans. It’s like a mix between Pokemon and Yugioh.
