Tight schedules, stress, anxiety, always being late. Life in the city is chaos. In contrast, life in the countryside offers tranquility and peace of mind. And that is the idea behind this nice farm game.
Learn about mental health and enjoy a safe environment
Goodville is a farm simulator in isometric perspective where Jane, a depressed young woman, leaves her stressful life in the city to live in the countryside. Here, she must run her father's farm and take care of all kinds of duties.
An original mix of classic farm games with an emotional wellness care application.
The interesting thing about this game is that the developers promote it as an experience oriented to take care of the emotional wellbeing of the players. And it is true, this game helps us to learn more about mental health by communicating with the characters in the game and teaches us to better understand our psychological state, but it is not exactly an original and innovative game.
In fact, the mechanics are similar to any other genre game. With simple taps on the screen, we will have to cultivate the field, collect resources, build structures, take care of the animals, manufacture products to sell them, complete missions, and so on. While we are doing so, we will also have to talk to the inhabitants of the village and choose our own answers.
It combines gaming industry expertise with a scientific approach to address mental health issues from a completely new angle.
So, by downloading the APK file, we get a nice and relaxing game and a place to take shelter from our busy lives. In addition, the graphical environment is pretty neat and lots of surprises are waiting for you in the adventure.
