The game uses an overhead perspective and a real-time daily schedule. Each day, players manage watering, harvesting, animal care, foraging, and processing items. Unlike earlier entries, the main income loop centers on the weekly bazaar, where players set up a stall, sell goods in batches, and react to customer demand. Building relationship points unlocks more events, upgrades, and marriage progress.
