While brewing a cup of tea, Wanderstop had an unexpected impact on my emotions, and strangely, I can’t get enough of it. If you’re aiming for a cozy game to dive into this weekend, whether it’s in the comfort of your home or under the fresh pseudo-spring skies, Wanderstop is an excellent choice. It’s currently priced at $22.49 on Steam until March 18, thanks to the Steam Spring Sale, down from its usual $24.99.
Wanderstop lets you immerse yourself in heartwarming activities like reading, tea-making, and sprucing up your quaint little shop. But it doesn’t stop there—the narrative and creative choices weave in a depth that adds intriguing layers. As you journey through the gameplay, it unfolds stories about themes like burnout, staying present, learning to let go, and navigating complex emotions. If Animal Crossing is that supportive friend who never questions your decisions, then Wanderstop is more like the therapist who nudges you to confront your own negative self-talk.
