Poem of the Starherd

A calming farming life sim set in a mysterious world where you care for humanoid spirits as your closest companions. Plant crops, raise spirits, and share daily life with someone you love in a tranquil, spellbound environment.

What you do — Build your farm from the ground up: plant crops, raise spirits (who feel and behave like animal companions), chop trees, and gather ores. Use what you earn to exchange for money or items, and craft new tools that expand what your homestead can become. As you progress, the world opens up: more maps become accessible and a wider range of resources awaits you.

Residents and relationships — Eight marriage candidates invite you to share life together. From a reliable and caring senior to a shy but cheerful librarian, a very timid doctor, and a carefree waitress, each resident has a unique personality. Their behavior shifts with the weather and season, and you can deepen bonds by giving gifts. Higher affection unlocks special events, culminating in the possibility of marriage and living side by side with your chosen partner.

Festivals and events — The year is filled with festivals that heighten the charm of companionship and community. Celebrate Flower Viewing, Harvest Festival, Cooking Contest, Star Gathering Day, and Thanksgiving. Festivals offer limited-time mini-games, exclusive items, rewards, and unique events that keep the world feeling alive and celebratory.

Economy and growth — Earning money is a steady goal. By growing crops, felling trees, and mining ores, you can fund an expanding roster of spirits, upgrade your cabin, and widen your home’s area. Crops can be transformed into meals and potions to sell, adding depth to your farming routine and giving you creative ways to use your harvest.

Art and presentation — The game features an exquisite art style with abundant event CGs, bringing the world and its inhabitants to vibrant life.

Character creation and seasons — At the start, choose your gender, male or female. Experience a 28-day seasonal cycle through spring, summer, autumn, and winter, with winter offering a distinct, serene atmosphere. The slow-life rhythm emphasizes heartwarming daily activities—farming, chopping wood, and gathering grass—giving you space to savor simple joys.

Poem of the Starherd invites you to nurture a tranquil world where companionship, craft, and a gentle rhythm of life blend into a heartfelt, evolving story.
