SEASONS Seasons game is Stardew Valley

in Summer FestivalI tried a game that was bold enough to ask: Why does Stardo Valley not extend more? Graving seasons, which are followed next year, is a comfortable agricultural game with a satisfactory feature: it relates to all friends (and romantic partners) that you make along the bloody way to stop a serial killer.

A little in the short demonstration of the dangerous seasons, I moved to the fields to clean the farm in which I divided and decided to adopt it, just to find a cut hand. It is suitable for an independent address published by Blumhouse Games, a section of Blumhouse Productions, which, with the gaming unit, began to expand beyond her work in horror films to publish titles like last year Fear of lights.

Grave Seasons is a comfortable horror game that appears to be ingeniously mixed with quiet and heinous, attractive to Dredge fans and other sedative games shown by the villain. Players take over the role of the prison escape that is divided and dependent, and it is a farm in the town of Ashenridge, only to find that it is full of dark secrets.

But it was not just mysterious laboratories in the basement and body parts that were discovered from the fields that made the game feel dark. After I made some of the first friends, my illustration ended with a terrible development: one of my new friends, who asked me to join them on a midnight picnic in the nearby forest, the ambush was installed by a ugly monster and brutally killed. Even the charming spite drawings of the game did not save my eyes from the ick of Justemment.

“We admire the huge games that mix this type of comfort mixed with a feeling of uncomfortable,” said Emit Nhil, the designer of the Studio Perfect Garbage, who has developed dangerous seasons (Blumhouse is the publisher). Nahal was martyred with games like Dredge, in the forest and lamb worshiped as inspiration.

Nikki Armstrong, the main programmer in dangerous seasons, said this seasonal murder. But you have enough time between sowing crops and cleaning your farm to see what may happen. You can try to hold a friendship with many people you meet all over the city, and even discover who is the killer.

But if you are playing dangerous seasons alongside real life friends, do not worry about spoiling the murderer’s identity on your behalf-help the indiscriminate design of the game, which is indiscriminately inspired by a sub-group of about 40 letters you face in the game. Like any good comfortable agricultural game, you can romance many of them, including the huge Harry that you first met in the demonstration. In a better development, the person you make may end to the murderer as well.

Besides video games, Nahil was martyred in popular horror movies and films and her monster as inspiration that led to a unique tone in Seasons.

“The original man is actually a great source of inspiration for me,” said Nahil. “We have some really wonderful events (in dangerous seasons) that tell you a little more about the traditions of the world. It is clear that the characteristics of the creature like the horror of the early hammer are a huge one for me, where you can see different monsters, and different creatures, and there is a kind of feeling of illnesses that correspond to these creatures.”

There is another design that distinguishes the Grave Separts seasons, which is the start of the game with the protagonist on LAM from prison-an exit from Stardew Valley and others from the cultivation Sims where positive reactions are from the beginning. Instead, in this game, the players start a feeling of tension, because they cannot go to the police officers around the series who wanders in the city.

“It helps to put the player in the idea that they are alone and they have to use their intelligence, really focus on their skills to help the city and themselves – or obstruct the city and help the killer,” Nihel said.

In other words, the Playthrough of Graving Seasons game can run several different ways depending on the random killer and options made by players. It was a choice of design for perfect garbage operations, which she wanted to convert from the time of unspecified gameplay for Stardew Valley or Harvest Moon to tell a story.

“We really want to test the narration that we formulated and played the game to its end … whether it is a positive or negative conclusion,” said Armstrong. “We still want you to try it until its end and spend a truly fun time with one game of the game, and then we would like to play it again and try a different story, a different killer, a different result.”

The narration of stories also applies to the killers. Whether it is cancer or not, all characters have a background to discover them while you are close to them. The potential killers have motives and stories lines that the player can search, which will change the elements within the world that they may discover and ask about.

But in conclusion, I asked Armstrong and Nahil, perhaps the most important question: Which of the forty characters or so will they return?

Armstrong said: “Oh, my son Harry is there in the explanatory show, yes.”

“He is not in the demonstration, but Noah, frankly,” said Nahil. “Our orange hunter is my favorite romance.”

This is entertaining to know, but it also indicates that the game contains a crowd. Many of the other cultivation Sims have a comfortable part of the bottom, but the dangerous seasons seem to allow the discomfort of pathological effects and murder to be a budget tension that complicates the comfortable monotony of cultivation. The alternate between the growing life and fear for you, why don’t you find someone yet?

Grave Seasons seasons are scheduled to appear on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch in 2026.
