Stranded Sails: Explorers of the Cursed Islands

Overall, Stranded Sails – Explorers of the Cursed Islands delivered everything I wanted from a farming simulator while also nailing the “open world adventure” section of their description salad. The main narrative isn’t complex, but its characters provide enough verve and earnest emotion to make up the difference. If you want a relaxing game that takes a clever approach to delivering a gradually unfurling world of beautiful polygons, it is well worth looking past the few rough edges.
