Everdream Valley
Finally holidays! This summer, for the first time ever, you will spend it alone at your grandparent’s farm. Two months without mom and dad. Only you and your dog! Two months during which you have to take care of the grandparent’s farm growing plants and milking animals, well at least some of them.
You will plant, water, gather crops, and fight (sometimes for life) against pests.
You’ll need to clear nettles, build pens, and keep the animals on the farm happy.
You can sell your crops and buy or upgrade equipment with the money you earn.
However, you will not be able to do everything right away, to build a pen you need to get wood and tools first. Fish are much more cooperative when you can offer them fatter worms. Oh, and remember to talk to your grandparents often and watch for guests. You never know where the next farming mission is coming from.
From the very beginning, your dog can support you in farming tasks, for example you can use him to herd a scattered flock of sheep. But this dog, in addition to a solid bodyweight, has also a lot of character. It is up to you and your training skills whether your companion will help you or get in your way.
There is also a cat. At first, he will not be happy with the new company. It’s your job to convince him that you are a worthy ally. If you succeed, you can use him to discover new missions, hidden places, pest control, and many other tasks on the farm.
The farm is located in the Everdream Valley. You will find there a few biomes with different flora, fauna, and missions. Fields, meadows, forests, a lake, and a river are waiting for you to discover new secrets and tasks, from gathering and sometimes growing fruits and mushrooms to catching fish, collecting insects, and even building a treehouse.
After a day of running through the meadows, fighting with nettles, and sheep riding, it would be good to rest from attractions in a comfy bed. Nothing of that. While sleep will eventually come to you, it will by no means be calm.
Everdream Valley is not your ordinary valley and its residents have their own lives, plans, and secrets.
In your dreams, with the help of a magic hat, you will be able to play the role of various animals. Remember that what you do during at day and night has an impact on the farm. If you don’t fend off the wolves as a dog, you may not have anyone to build pens for when you wake up. The goals of two ducks, who seemingly do not interfere with the life of the farm, may turn out to be completely contrary to the plans of the inhabitants of the henhouse. A cat that is at most a bit cranky during the day at night may aspire to be a war criminal, and war, war never changes.
In all this confusion, there is somewhere an answer to the question of what is actually going on on this beutiful but bizarre farm. You have two months of holidays to find out the answer. One thing is for sure. This will be the most peculiar summer ever.

Stardander School for Witches
In this SHATTERED world, humans cannot survive without MAGIC. Someone has to TEACH them. That someone is Darestrand - aka Professor Dare - a Celestial-class Fae cat, protector of humans and head of Stardander School for Witches.
As Professor Dare, you will select a few lucky witches to teach, and choose which classes to teach them.
Support your witches as they navigate magical school life, and decide when to help them, advise them, or punish them.
Guide your witches through perilous team battles to keep the forests surrounding your castle safe. Wild Fae are on the rise and a dangerous enemy lays siege - always ready for a chance to strike.
The World
Long ago, humans summoned Fae creatures to this world and bound them to their will. It was an age of power and magic. But when pacts were broken, that very power - the power of the Fae - turned upon humanity and brought chaos to the world.
Only the aid and protection of fifteen sympathetic Fae kept humans from being annihilated. These fifteen became known as the Protectors, and founded the human-Fae Alliance. But one notoriously powerful and malicious Fae - Apexsens - has a deep grudge against humans and has not given up his quest to exterminate them.
The safety of the Protectors cannot last forever - only through mastering their own magic do humans stand a chance. For nearly 300 years it has been Darestrand’s task - and atonement - to teach humans the very magic that once dominated and enslaved her.
After mysteriously vanishing for seven years, Darestrand is now back to re-open Stardander, the best school for witches and the hope of all humanity. Few now know that she was once a great friend to Apexsens, and it was her who long ago broke the pacts and unleashed him upon the world. When the world’s balance shifts again, where will her loyalties lie?

Kitty Tactics
As an SRPG guy this is a wonderful little treat. The only real issues I have are that the meta is pretty singular– you have to mitigate square takings, and then maximize yours, so it typically becomes befriend a bunch of cats and have kittens to flood the board with cats who shouldn’t take your squares up. Then you just let them sort each other out while you drive around grabbing tiles.
Some extra win conditions, map styles, and maybe an extra beginner class or two to spruce up the early scratch-lick-lick-lick-lick-scratch meta just a pinch. With these, Kitty Tactics would be in a great position as a simple, accessible, but variable and replayable game.

While I am reccomending this game, it is what it says on the box. A $4 game with adorable cats. I personally love the concepts presented, and will be looking forward to any updates/improvements in the future. I feel things that would add to the game a bunch would be local or online multiplayer. This game would be brilliant with friends at a party, imagine the sight of 8 cats fighting it out, teaming, changing teams, and leveling up would be great. I feel the territory is a great idea that could have more added to it, such as buildings or other construction options. I’m not sure if that would take away the game’s simplicity, but I also felt late game it was difficult to keep territory out of enemy hands, which is why I suggested elements of construction such as walls or towers. But overall, worth what I payed for it. Can’t wait to see where it goes in the future!
