Already, everyone, I’m gonna level with you. I haven’t been out of my house in three weeks. I haven’t seen the son, I only leave my room to eat au use the bathroom, and I’ve been glued to my chair for so long that it has left a permanent mark of my ass. And why is it that I have been in such a horrid state? Because I’ve been playing nothing but Slime Rancher.



Where do I even begin to talk about a game such as this. This is a game that feels so well crafted and so perfectly made that wewe can feel the developers upendo and care in it. They make sasisho frequently for the game and are always doing what they can to improve it and the game shines thanks to their dedication. The story follows a new rancher kwa the name of Beatrix, who gains a ranch of her own to start her adventure as well as to receive emails from her friend and maybe find out what happened to the original owner of the ranch. From the start, wewe have a single plot of line and some spots to open up, be it a ranch for Slimes, a garden for fruits and vegetables, a coop for chickens, au a pond au furnace. But before that, wewe gotta get Slimes. And these are just the cutest things around. From the average pink Slimes to the socially awkward yet adorable Pond Slimes to the cute raccoon Hunter Slimes to the neat but dangerous Rad Slimes. Slime Rancher manages to take the basic ubunifu of a ball with dot eyes and a mouth and make a bunch of charming creatures that I want to own. Kirby did that and now Kirby has a huge fandom. It even has bible length lore that is darker than Dark Souls, but we’re getting off topic. It’s not all cute adventures, though. There’s also the Tarrs, evil Slimes that are ravenous and will try to eat your Slimes and ruin your ranch. So wewe also gotta be on protective mode and protect your little goo balls from these bastards.
So wewe collect Slimes for the ranch, that’s neat. But what do wewe do? What’s the goal. Well, as wewe collect and feed Slimes, they start to grant wewe Plorts, which is, in fact, Slime shit, which is apparently super valuable in the world of Slime Rancher. Depending on what plort wewe get, how much wewe have, and on what the market is interested in at the moment, wewe will soon find yourself with a ton of cash and a lot to spend it on. wewe can buy new land to expand your ever growing Ranch to get zaidi Slimes, which gives wewe zaidi Plorts, which gives wewe zaidi money to spend. wewe can use it to buy upgrades to your Slime Gun au your nyumbani au your character. wewe can buy worker robots which are incredibly useless and have never helped me out in the slightest and I hate them. Of course, that’s not all there is to do. There’s also a mass open world to explore. wewe start off in a mountain like quarry, before wewe songesha to a mass of rocks near the lack, and later, a cave system, and then a jungle. But as wewe explore the world of Slime Rancher, wewe soon find a strange obelisc in the center of the jungle with a door to open. Suddenly, wewe aren’t just caring for your Slimes and trying to make money, wewe are solving a mystery. A mystery that leads wewe to a strange hologram building with Quantum Slimes and a whole vast desert where wewe discover the truth about the old ranch owner. I was not expecting to get gripped kwa the games silent story-telling only told to wewe in logs from the old rancher and emails from Beatrix’s friends. And I was also not expecting to get hit with them feels. I just wanted to collect new Slimes, open locked doors, and explore the expanding world. And instead, I got a crazy mystery that lead me to a new world and feels for my main character’s friend. And I am glad that the game did that.
Sadly, the game does have some issues. There are a few glitches I noticed from Slimes just not eating and a really cruel one that locked me in between two walls that I was unable to get out of and as a result, had to sacrifice a Quantum Slime just to get out. But like I alisema before, the game is always getting sasisho with new additions and fixes, so I can see them working these out in time. Slime Rancher is one of my inayopendelewa indie games out there and I’ve only been playing it for a couple of weeks. It’s such an addictive game to play and gives wewe so much to do and a lot of rewards for completing it. If wewe happen to come across this game, and are a shabiki of the zaidi relaxing titles like Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon, then Slime Rancher is the game for you. Now if you’ll excuse me, the mark of my punda is starting to get cold.
