A farming life game: you inherit an old farm plot, grow crops, raise animals and get to know the people of the valley.
Playing together
- Up to 8 players can farm together: the host invites 1 to 7 friends to the valley online. (Steam store page)
- Steam lists online co-op, LAN co-op and split-screen co-op. (Steam store page)
Why a server
Without a server, one player hosts the world from their own computer, so the others can only join while that player is online. A rented server keeps the world online all the time: friends join when they like, and the host's computer can be off.
