    Cattle Country defies the odds and certainly manages to make its mark on the life sim genre. It’s charming, fun, and packed with unexpected surprises and a thrilling sense of adventure that sets it apart from many of its competitors. The only question mark surrounding the title concerns its longevity. Post-launch content is key if Cattle Country is to become a titan of the genre, but if developers deliver on that front, this one could really go the distance.

    Cattle Country is a farming sim that presents a rare sense of adventure in the genre. Part cosy farming sim, part survivalist fairytale, part baby’s first Red Dead. It’s a delightful romp that fans of Stardew and Story of Seasons looking for a new twist on the well-worn genre should wrangle as soon as they can.

    While the Wild West theme is unique to this type of game, Cattle Country offers little you haven’t seen elsewhere. A lack of originality isn’t surprising for this genre, but it’s still disappointing. The non-innovative approach would be less of an issue were this game refined, but multiple quirks and outright bugs show that’s not the case. The game could use more polish, so genre fans might be best waiting for a sale.
