15 Video Games That Were Not AAA, But Still Managed To Make Players’ Jaws Drop

STARDEW VALLEY

If you’re looking for a game that you can lose dozens (if not hundreds) of hours of your life to, look no further than Stardew Valley. It’s the perfect relaxation game- to begin with, at least. That’s how it starts, as the game lays out all of its mechanics, from farming to fishing to befriending NPCs to exploring caves and mines, and as the hours progress, it keeps on adding layer on top of layer on top of layer. Soon, it has its claws so deep into you that even if you tried, you couldn’t get out. Stardew Valley is a black hole brimming with addictive and engaging systems and mechanics that will suck you in and never let you go.
