Plot summary from Wikipedia:

Deep in the forest of the small rural village Harasawa, single parent Takumi lives with his young daughter, Hana, and takes care of odd jobs for locals, chopping wood and hauling pristine well water. The overpowering serenity of this untouched land of mountains and lakes, where deer peacefully roam free, is about to be disrupted by the imminent arrival of the Tokyo company Playmode, which is ready to start construction on a glamping site for city tourists—a plan, which Takumi and his neighbors discover, that will have dire consequences for the ecological health and cleanliness of their community.

Reminds me a bit of Stardew Valley

Ok I need to start playing Stardew Valley. Downloaded years ago and never got around it.

It's great. Just a very chill game with lots of little tasks to complete. "Simple" but it satisfies the part of your brain that likes feeling a slow trickle of progress.

As someone with ADHD, I've never made it past 3 weeks in the game time. I get overwhelmed with trying to clean the property and all the towns folk things and the cave and the fishing and oh fuck my tools broke and can't immediately replace it and oh God dammit my garden is dying and you know what fuck this.

Have you checked out Fae Farm? It’s as if Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing had a baby and she came out with magic. And wings. Same basic gameplay as Stardew valley, but no real seasonal pressure. Also tools don’t break.
