Greenville village

The hub of the world. Walk the roads between the farm plots, home and the seed shop — every building you see is a real, walkable place, not a painted backdrop.

The seed shop, start to finish

This is the most complete part of the game so far — from walking up outside, to a real conversation with Faye, to stepping inside and actually buying seeds.

Walk up to the seed shop and Faye is right there to greet you.
