I got murdered by a ladybug in Neverway, and that cemented it as the only game I care about this year

Neverway's hands-on preview says it is much more than a Stardew Valley-style farm sim.

The demo blends island life, routine simulation tasks, and eerie supernatural horror.

At the center is Fiona, whose story explores depression, isolation, and psychological unease.

The game stands out for mixing cozy life-sim systems with cosmic, Lovecraftian dread.
