Farming is the foundation of daily life in Grave Seasons. The player establishes a farm in Ashenridge and grows crops to sell in town and to use in crafting and cooking. As in other farming sims, the work involves preparing the land, planting, watering, and harvesting on a daily cycle.
Tools
Farm work is handled through a tool wheel that includes the standard farm sim toolkit.
Tool | Use |
|---|---|
Hoe | Tills soil so it can be planted. |
Watering Can | Waters planted crops. |
Axe | Chops wood and clears the land. |
Pick | Breaks rocks and is used for mining. See Fishing And Mining. |
Soil Types
Crops are grown across more than one kind of ground. The farm includes regular soil, arid land, and water based growing areas, and different crops are suited to different soil types. Choosing the right ground for each plant is part of running an efficient farm.
Crops
A wide variety of vegetables, fruits, and other plants can be cultivated. Which crops can be grown depends on the current season, so the planting plan changes as the in-game year progresses. See Seasons And Calendar for how the seasonal cycle affects growing.
Farming And The Mystery
What the player harvests is not only an economic activity. The goods grown on the farm play a critical role in unraveling the mysteries of Ashenridge, feeding into the crafting of items used to investigate the murders and ward off the threat stalking the town.
