Seems like Roots of Pacha took it's roots from Stardew hehe. (I spend 10 minutes thinking of a pun, m'kay. It's bad, but works!) I am huge fan of farming/life sim games. This one looks promising! Anyways guys, would love to see a video in which you make a top 10 of all Farming sims on Switch. Not just Stardew and the lot, but also the ones which came out this year. It's too much to keep taps on if you ask me.

This looks promising, I like the idea that you can feel more like part of a community rather than a solo farmer getting NPC's numbers to go up. How fast does the day/night cycle run? I've found the clocks in some farming games are a little too fast to make for a relaxing experience.

Who's to say there will be one necessarily? The Last Faith or Astral Ascent were games that I assumed Mark would do reviews on but for whatever reason they didn't materialise. Mark and Glen are obviously very busy guys and they do a herculean task of getting as many wonderful reviews out as they can out to us! This i cannot fault them for! ❤ What i can say however is that the Arkham games have a broader appeal than those indies and there's a higher likelihood that it may get a review! 👍
