Morikomori Life, a captivating rural farm life simulation game, has been officially released for Android and iOS devices, but exclusively in Japan. The game, published by Realfun Studio, marks a fresh start after its initial launch in China by Level Infinite under Tencent Games. Notably, the Chinese version was discontinued approximately a year ago.
The Rural Farm Life Sim Is Back
One of the standout features of Morikomori Life is its stunning visuals. The developers have masterfully captured the essence of a cozy, rural life through anime-inspired, specifically Studio Ghibli-style, artwork. Far from the generic AI-generated graphics, the scenes in Morikomori Life appear as if they've been directly extracted from a beloved Studio Ghibli film.
In the game, you step into the shoes of Kaon, a young Japanese girl who receives a mysterious letter from her grandmother, prompting her to return to her childhood village, Komori. As you explore the village, you'll rediscover the joys of a tranquil, rural existence. The game's 3D toon shading beautifully enhances the warmth and authenticity of the Japanese countryside, making every moment feel like a serene escape.

Morikomori Life Lets You Experience Slow-Paced Living
At its core, Morikomori Life is all about embracing the slow pace of rural life. Engage in a variety of activities such as farming, cooking, fishing, hunting, and even constructing your own home. You can gather resources by chopping wood, mining ore, and discovering rare materials during your explorations.
As you accumulate resources, you'll unlock new opportunities to enhance your home and enrich your lifestyle. Customize Kaon's appearance to match your personal style, make new friends in the village, prepare meals from foraged ingredients, and lend a hand to villagers with various tasks.
Morikomori Life also offers a degree of freedom with its open-world exploration, allowing you to roam freely and uncover delightful surprises along the way.
Currently, Morikomori Life is available on Android in Japan. If you're located in the region, you can find it on the Google Play Store. There's no confirmation yet on whether a global release is in the works.
