Is this game more for kids or can an adult play it and enjoy it?

[Imortalin]

Please let me know. I like crafting building games and seen it had great reviews but was wondering of it is for children? Thanks...

I mean, its for everyone to enjoy. If you like harvest moon/rune factory style games, you will love this.

It is for everyone. I'm in my 50s and I play it more than my grandkids or nephews when they are over.

It's an E for Everyone. If you don't like the game and you've been playing for under 2 hours, you can always refund it.

It's a game about leaving the (so called) rat race behind, and returning to a simplier life, closer to the earth and closer to a small community. It's about farming, and the turning of the seasons.

There are other things to do too of course, but at it's heart, it's a game about a longing for a quieter time in history, when "work" was less abstract.

As the others have said, it's not aimed at children. It's mechanically simple, and it approaches some simple concepts, but it's still well crafted (and for its genre is quite well polished) and potentially offers some decent entertainment (regardless of your age).

Honestly it also depends on the age of the kid, if they can play minecraft or terraria well enough then they can play and understand stardew valley just fine. I'd say 8+ and they should be able to understand the key/simple concepts and mechanics of the game.

Edit: But as others have said, adults would get WAY more out of it. I know I do.

The game's story features depression, suicide attempts, substance abuse, PTSD, mentions of war, some mentions of marijuana and sex... It's more of a "PG" game, it's relatively safe for kids to play, but I wouldn't call it a kid's game. Most of the references to the more adult stuff would go over a child's head - the one character with the suicide attempt is extremely rude, so many younger people wouldn't even bother befriending them.

its for adult so much more, than for kids if you ask me, this is not a FPS after all....

I am an adult, an old adult, and I like it, although I would like it more if Farmer Stanley could bring the married ladies home for a bit of the old smootch-and-tickle.

But I can pretend.

Sigh.

I am a young adult of 20 years, turning into a full adult next year. I’m sure it’ll be a game I will enjoy even then. It’s a game anyone can enjoy at any age, although there are SOME, JUST SOME sexual innuendos in the game. Still, a kid can play the game and have a blast while at the same time not being corrupted, and an adult can safely have fun without feeling immature playing it.

I'm an adult and I love it.
