Filled with good meaning vibes and a wonderfully charming heart, Stardew Valley\u2019s appeal has not dulled in the more than seven years since its original release. It\u2019s never too late to get started. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Spirit & The Mouse <\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nLike other games in this list, The Spirit & The Mouse derives its wholesome nature from that most kind and heart-warming of gestures – the willingness to help out a stranger in need and in turn, gain a new friend as a result. As Lila, a tiny and kind mouse within the quaint French town of Sainte-et-Claire that finds herself empowered by electrical spirit, The Spirit & The Mouse is a blissfully entertaining platforming adventure where you must walk, climb and leap around Sainte-et-Claire, helping those who are in need and restoring hope to a town struggling to keep the lights on during its darkest days. Equal parts adorable, engaging and heartfelt, The Spirit & The Mouse is a delectable offering that everybody looking to lighten their heart should partake in.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TOEM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nA balm for the heart and soul, TOEM is an isometric adventure where as a cheerful photographer, you must navigate an adorably constructed monochrome, isometric world, snapping photos of the world around you and seeking out the weird and the wonderful to capture in perpetuity. Along the way you\u2019ll make new friends, uncover secrets and discover love and warmth through the lens of your trusty camera in ways that you never thought were possible. Endlessly relaxing and filled with charming characters and a real sense of adventure, TOEM\u2019s reputation as one of the best wholesome games ever made is certainly well-earned to say the least. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unpacking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThough its central mechanic is built entirely around unpacking items and securing the perfect position for them in a range of new abodes, Unpacking remains long in the mind and heart because of how deftly it touches on themes of memory and the passing of time. Something of a bittersweet endeavour, Unpacking is a coming of age tale that ruminates on the memories that are imbued in the belongings that we carry with us from place to place, reminding us that while nothing is forever, the notion of a new beginning can be as enriching for the soul as can be the fondness with which we look upon our past, and the bits and bobs that we attach such weighty sentiment to.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
