Stardew Valley
This farming simulator takes a ton of inspiration from classic Harvest Moon games and comes out on top with an incredible pixelated art style,
creative gameplay, and addictive new ways to play.
The first game created by a solo developer, Eric Barone (known as ConcernedApe), Stardew Valley has been given away for free.
The indie farming RPG puts you in control of your grandfather’s old farm and allows you to build relationships with villagers
who live nearby while growing crops, raising animals, and mining for minerals.
There’s also a large collection of items that can be obtained or crafted through adventuring in dungeons or treasure hunting on land.
It’s not yet available on mobile devices, but Stardew Valley is already one of our favorite games from 2016. Be sure to check it out if you haven’t already!
Terraria
This is a 2D sandbox-style game with an emphasis on mining and crafting.
This adventure game has been around for quite some time, with versions available on multiple platforms.
You can explore a world that’s randomly generated or play online with other people.
You can even join your friends in co-op mode, where you’ll all need to work together to make it through various challenges.
In any case, there are plenty of new features to look forward to in upcoming updates, including magic spells and pets that you can tame and breed (if you’re into that sort of thing).
The bottom line is: If you’re looking for something a little more casual but still fun, Terraria might be worth checking out .
This update includes big changes to how you progress through story missions, but otherwise remains true to its core gameplay elements—it’s just now better than ever.

And veteran players will also find a lot of fun stuff to keep them busy as well.
The best part? You don’t have to worry about grinding endlessly anymore—as long as you take advantage of everything at your disposal!
On top of that, Shadow Wars is also one of those games whose gameplay grows more complex over time.
Your base starts off small, and becomes larger and larger as you gain access to better buildings.
