    Hope you enjoyed the collaboration between Mark and me. As we can't get together to do videos at the minute, we thought this might be nice. Quite a long one this but we felt it was important to really get across exactly how it plays and what's it's all about for those that are interested as it's quite an unique blend of styles. Also, although it comes out in North America and a few other regions on 10th November, it's not out until 20th November in Europe and Australia. Happy gaming. Glen

    I love how the farm mechanics is actually tied to the power level. This is a novel idea that was used in many games like Sakuna but Marvelous, having mastered the art of farming simulators, had perfected the balance.
    Sakuna is a game that I am so happy to see in this day and age.

      When Rune Factory came out on the Switch, I couldn't believe how enjoyable the experience was. Between the combat and romances, (the hilarious dialogue, being able to take along a villager as you quest), I knew I'd enjoy it better than the (at the time) up-and-coming Animal Crossing. And I wasn't wrong.
      I'm not big on any farming simulators, but Sakuna seems like a really fun action/rice-tending game-loop.

      This game is very much like the ps2 golden days of RPGs, so yes...there is definitely "post-game" content.
      I'm 47 hours in (19 Sakuna years) and I cleared the final boss about 40ish hours in.
      Getting your rice maxed out (as in, cant improve Sakuna's AND your rice's stats anymore...cause remember...there's boosting Sakuna with white rice and then there's boosting her with brown rice. Maxing out Sakuna completely will require you to grow both perfected white and brown rice) seems like it'll take at least 60...maybe 80 hours...maybe even more tbh.
      Not to mention 100% every node, creating (and maximizing) every piece of gear, maximizing all of your abilities, clearing floor 100 in the tower, completing the highest level of survival for Lady Kamuhitsuki...
      There's easily 80-100 hours of content here. And the game doesn't punish you for veating the main boss 30 hours in by saying "Thanks, now start again completely fresh!"

    A lil giga wrecker feel on combat side, is £27 @ base. May check this one out don't mind a bit of farming if there's enough combat/platforming. Thought it may get forgot on hyrule day hope not..... Theres the Micevania Micetopia too on 20th!

    I'm not sure yet since I haven't played the game, but this seems like one of those games that really stands out, and I mean really REALLY stands out even among big budget games which is even more amazing when you consider that this is just an indie game just incredible, but again like I said I haven't played it yet so I'm not sure either.

    I've been absolutely loving this game, I asked my mum for it for Christmas and been playing it like no tomorrow. I only have 1 problem with the game and that's that it's har to keep sakuna moving straight for some reason, she seems to almost zigzag a bit which is super annoying when planting rice
