ChillTown, the eagerly awaited sequel to the relaxing Chill Corner game by Low-Hi Tech, is the perfect blend of life sim and idle game. You won’t find anything stressful in this lovely game as you explore your new home island. Get to know the townspeople, and set out on more adventures around nearby islands to gather resources. Discover all kinds of fish, plants, and even cute critters called Pals. You may even run into new people who will move to your new home island!
There’s so much to do in ChillTown, that it’s hard to be bored. Go exploring to see what crops, critters, and artefacts you can find. Use your new crops to cultivate your very own backyard farm plot so you have an endless supply of fresh ingredients for your recipes, too. Then, poke around your home island and see how you can beautify it. Build a flourishing garden with benches to sit on and admire the flowers. Decorate the homes of your townspeople so they each have a house as comfortable as yours! Even complete quests, donate your finds to the local museum, or just hang out. And when you need to get work done outside the game, use the auto function to farm or fish like an idle game!
One of the Easiest Build Modes to Use
Too many games feature building, but use a system that is okay or just downright needs reworking. ChillTown, though, has an excellent building system. First, it uses the classic Build Mode. Then, you have a Catalog you can access where you’ll find all of the decorations you own. Couches, tvs and tv stands, flower pots, desks, chairs, aquariums, and more are all located in the Catalog for easy access that doesn’t clog up your pockets. And there’s tons of items to decorate with. TONS. Fancy a kitchen? Build one complete with an oven and cooking pot. Want to create a cozy gaming area? Great! There’s desks, chairs, and desktop computer components galore to choose from!
Perhaps the best part of ChillTown’s building system, though, is the grid. You can free-place items for that specific placement you desire, or enable snapping. The grid helps you get placement just right, too. Use the lines or spaces to set yourself up right. It was super useful for placing smaller items like standing lamps, because you could center the lamp inside a square, line it up at the convergence point of four squares, or anywhere in between. The whole thing was helpful for people like me who struggle to eyeball distances between items, while also giving you the option to not wing your placement.
Overall, I just really love the variety of decorations you can use paired with the ease of building. It’s simple to set up exactly what you want how you envision it. It makes the game that much more enjoyable when the features it has are fun to use. Especially the building and decorating feature, which is a big feature of the game!
