New Steam Game Has Pokemon and Rusty’s Retirement Vibes

by

For those who love relaxing gaming experiences, there’s a fresh addition to explore – ‘Whimside’ is now live on Steam! In honor of the game’s debut on Steam, the developers are running a special limited-time offer inviting players to delve into this delightful indie game featuring pixel art and endearing creatures.

Comforting games serve dual purposes: they can boost productivity or simply entertain, offering some intriguing options. For instance, consider “Spirit City: Lofi Sessions“, a game resembling the popular YouTube channel Lofi Girl. In this game, players gather spirits, enjoy lo-fi tunes, personalize their character and environment, and utilize these elements to enhance focus and minimize stress. If you’re after a blend of entertaining graphics and interactivity, “Hidden Folks” is worth checking out – it involves searching for people camouflaged in miniature settings, all hand-drawn. Now, there’s a fresh cozy game accessible to PC users, combining elements from popular titles.

Whimside is a Creature-Collecting Game that Runs at the Bottom of the PC Screen

A French studio named Toadzillart launched the game titled “Whimside” on Steam on August 7th. This game revolves around the capture of peculiar creatures called Whimlings, which come in various types such as green-horned deer or yellow and black foxes. After capturing these creatures, players can manage them much like Pokemon trainers use their Pokedex, keeping track of the creatures they’ve caught or haven’t.

Whimlings can be combined to produce a new species, with each combination uncovering a new species and opening up new biomes and decorations for the game world. “Whimside” offers an impressive 8,002,800 potential Whimling combinations and shiny variants, ensuring players will always encounter fresh species to discover.

A distinctive trait of the game Whimside resembles the widely appreciated farm simulator, Rusty’s Retirement. This feature enables the game to run at the screen’s bottom, enabling players to carry on with their tasks simultaneously. Players can discover new Whimlings and gradually unlock five biomes and 10 zones within the game, unveiling its mysteries and exciting elements. As they advance in the game, Whimside players will also gain access to 182 unique decorations to customize a unique space for their Whimlings. Content creators can leverage the integration with Twitch and broadcast the game on Amazon’s streaming platform.

Until this Thursday, August 21st, you can get a 10% discount on Whimside, making it only $5.26. For those interested in trying the game before purchasing, a free demo is accessible on Steam. Gamers seeking relaxation can enhance their experience by acquiring up to three bundles: the first combines Whimside with Tiny Aquarium: Social Fishkeeping, the second with Fischer’s Fishing Journey, and the third with Tiny Pasture.
