Is this a trial version or the official version? I bought and played it. It really feels like a trial version—full of bugs, lacking cutscenes, and with some areas that are completely inaccessible

I helped test the game so my playtime is higher than it appears. Poem of the starherd is a fun farming sim with some cute and funny characters and it turns lewd very fast lol. One thing that has to be said is if you choose normal mode it is a very slow long grind game since to unlock all the farm upgrades it takes about 2mill gold it's not as bad on easy but it will still be a grind. Overall one of the fun h farm sim games that i wish there were more of Oh and don't forget to grab the patch off OP!

The game is good ,but slow paces. If you're here for the bunch of scene early in the game , This may not be the game for you. Gameplay is not complex. Harvesmoon like type of farming and crafting , The game is time consuming at first until you reach helper skill shortly after few hours into the game(time skip skill , upgraded tools , money farm location , etc) The scene is good if you know what you are buying.

ACTUALLY SO GOOD!! thank you for making something like this, it's peak.. ♡ (+18 game! free patch on Otaku Plan) - gardening is a little finicky, just place yourself directly across before you use hoe, watering pail, etc. until you see the blue highlight box! as well as vegetables take quite some time to grow. - all of the game tips that will help you are in the library! please read the books in there. - it's a slow burn.. but all of the characters are so cute, have well written personalities and the story itself is wonderful! there is a lot to discover & events to experience.. definitely like a farming sim, very fun. - i recommend joining their discord server for any help you may need & reading steam discussion board! ⢕⢕⢕⢕⢕⠅⢗⢕⠕⣠⠄⣗⢕⢕⠕⢕⢕⢕⠕⢠⣿⠐⢕⢕⢕⠑⢕⢕⠵⢕ ⢕⢕⢕⢕⠁⢜⠕⢁⣴⣿⡇⢓⢕⢵⢐⢕⢕⠕⢁⣾⢿⣧⠑⢕⢕⠄⢑⢕⠅⢕ ⢕⢕⠵⢁⠔⢁⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⡐⣕⢽⠐⢕⠕⣡⣾⣶⣶⣶⣤⡁⢓⢕⠄⢑⢅⢑ ⠍⣧⠄⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣔⢕⢄⢡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡑⢕⢤⠱⢐ ⢠⢕⠅⣾⣿⠋⢿⣿⣿⣿⠉⣿⣿⣷⣦⣶⣽⣿⣿⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⢹⣷⣷⡅⢐ ⣔⢕⢥⢻⣿⡀⠈⠛⠛⠁⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠈⠛⠛⠁⠄⣼⣿⣿⡇⢔ ⢕⢕⢽⢸⢟⢟⢖⢖⢤⣶⡟⢻⣿⡿⠻⣿⣿⡟⢀⣿⣦⢤⢤⢔⢞⢿⢿⣿⠁⢕ ⢕⢕⠅⣐⢕⢕⢕⢕⢕⣿⣿⡄⠛⢀⣦⠈⠛⢁⣼⣿⢗⢕⢕⢕⢕⢕⢕⡏⣘⢕ ⢕⢕⠅⢓⣕⣕⣕⣕⣵⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣕⢕⢕⢕⢕⡵⢀⢕⢕ ⢑⢕⠃⡈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢃⢕⢕⢕

This farming and romance game has a generally simple and uncomplicated farming system. Time isn't a major pressure point because it only ticks down in certain zones—mostly outside of buildings—allowing players to focus on building relationships with their favorite characters without feeling rushed. Time does play a significant role in town events and character birthdays, which is typical for this genre. For the Harvest Festival, the judging focuses heavily on the variety of vegetable types you grow, making it almost impossible to win in your first year. Similarly, cooking contests prioritize dishes that utilize a higher number of ingredients. Once you reach the required number of hearts, you will need to use certain resources from your farm to craft special items to give to your partner in order to progress. However, there are two (well, technically three, but let's call them two) special characters who don't require these items; Instead, unique choices will appear once your relationship reaches the milestone. You'll need to think carefully at this point. Infidelity is strictly forbidden. Once you choose to give a special item or decide to commit to someone, the game immediately closes the door on romantic paths with any other characters. After giving the initial special item, the relationship develops to the next stage. Regardless of who the character is, you will eventually need to give a different type of special item for marriage, which can only be done at the appropriate relationship level. If you aren't ready yet, your partner will refuse (as you need to go on a date first). For characters who already have romantic partners, increasing your friendship with them allows you to see their backstories and gain a deeper understanding of them, ultimately letting you see their H scenes. When you reach the ending, the game isn't actually over. You will continue playing as the child of your previous main character. You'll meet new characters added to the town, who are none other than the children of the other couples (and some original townspeople, despite having now become aunts, still love to tease and scare the younger generation). Personally, I love farming games that feature romance elements. While other farming games might have excellent and fun farming systems, they often lack the ability to pursue a truly deep, next-level relationship with your partner. This game fulfills that desire and is worth the price. That said, if the developers are willing to expand on this—adding more interactions with our partners, special activities, unique events, and making the characters feel more alive—I would gladly pay more for it. Finally, I have to mention that the farming aspect gave me a temporary "culture shock." The livestock on this farm aren't your typical pigs, cows, chickens, and ducks like in other games I've played. Still, the game does provide a lore reason to explain it. P.S. Don't forget to download the patch from the publisher's website.

A great slow-burn, but need the patch. I’ve been a fan of commamion ever since I played Accession of Heroes, so I was really looking forward to this. This game definitely delivers if you’re a fan of the farming sim genre. It’s a classic, relaxing "slow burn" style game similar to Stardew Valley or Harvest Moon, but with the added adult content. Download the patch from OTAKU plan website is a must as the game requires it to properly experience the intended content. Overall, I really enjoyed it. highly recommended!

this game is for very specific audiences if you want your hentai quick and easy this isnt the game for you, its a farming sim made within the rpg maker engine, you do not get a harem instead you get lovey dovey interactions and in depth stories and character dynamics. i love the zodiac theme and the use of the child mechanic reminiscent of rune factory 2. it is a slow burn and a grind and i personally enjoy it. as a side note if things arent working in your game download the free patch the game is unplayable without it as a precaution.

This is an 18+ game. It's censored because: look at the pictures and use common sense—what would happen if a parent sees this game, not knowing it's 18+, buys it for their child, and then... surprise! If you want the full version, this censored version is the "base" game, and you then add the rest via the free, no-account, no-nothing patch. Imagine it being a nude patch but way more. Meaning yes: you buy this game + patch = full game, and no child or otherwise was harmed. Going into more details while also trying to avoid anything specific, since AI bots and how free speech works in reality vs on paper: From the playtime I hope it's clear I only started the game to do this review. After all, I saw bad reviews that are just missing the point. So I want to at the very least let others know, since this is a new game, and as I just mentioned, there is a good chance parents are thinking of buying this for their children or similar. So at least they'll understand why this game is "empty"—no story, almost everything can't be accessed (building is there but no door), almost no characters, and more. So they know this is here to make it clear: tell your child, "oh well, looks like it's not a good game, let's uninstall it" (you, the parent, refund and ignore, then double-check the publisher and add an ignore—aka to never show you products from them to avoid a similar situation). This is an adult game—so no, don't buy if you can't handle how children are "made" and need magic trees to "create" (RF5 mentality). This is a censored version. Look up Valve employees banning Steam games due to their "beliefs" + grey areas + what a ban on a Steam game means—spoiler: devs, users, publishers can't appeal, can't question, can't do anything. A ban is a permanent ban. Solution? Post a censored version for us. Continue: I said "us" as in people who are fully and intentionally buying this, or similar games. As in, do you want to have it on your Steam library, or set up payments and more to various adult websites? See, this really is for us. The patch to download, to restore the FULL GAME (censored Steam version + patch = full game), is free, no account, no nothing. It's not hidden. It's not paid. Not even an account. Not even "buying it for free"—it's a simple press and download. Continue: the link to the patch—do NOT post it, because as I mentioned, you will get "banned" (temporary suspension, flagged account, so on), and all you will be told is: grey areas, grey areas, well maybe so it's a grey area. AKA just a lot of playing around with words. This patch system is actually better than you realise. If a game dev lets the publisher know they don't want their game to be sold anymore, you can't buy the game anymore. But on Steam, you can at least redownload if you bought it, vs non-Steam where, if your legit copy got corrupted or otherwise, you can't redownload it unless the publisher made sure there is a way to do so. This system is also a very good compromise. I mean, look at the pictures. Can you imagine what would happen if someone playing Rune Factory, or similar, sees this game, buys it for their child, and—well, I hope you get the point of why the "employees who take advantage of grey areas" I keep talking about will never be stopped. Because there are very good reasons why such censored games really should be censored. After all, all you need to do is buy the game, press to install, while you wait for the game to install download the patch, run the censored game once (so it's registered in your system), close it, run the patch, it will look and find the game automatically, you just click next next, wait till it finishes. And now you can play the game, full, on Steam, without putting any real living child, or parent, or otherwise, at risk for not realising what they bought is not for them. To finish up: This Steam game (I will just call it "This" from now on) is censored to prevent issues, and this is not "issues" but real legal and otherwise issues. This censored version + the patch being separate = no one can accidentally access the uncensored content. This being on Steam means an easy way to pay, refund, and more. This + the free-to-use, free-to-download, no-account, no-nothing patch = full game. I stress this once again because some other publishers do need you to create an account even if the product is free (price 0.00), or are charging for the adult patch—but this is fair, since those games, the Steam version is an all-age full version, so you really are paying for extra content for a full game. Whatever. The idea is this is the full game, it just needs a few simple and hassle-free steps to get there.

NOTE PLEASE: THIS GAME REQUIRES A PATCH. STEAM IS STRICT WITH ITS POLICIES ON H-GAMES. Don't let my time fool you. I play tested this for free and still bought it. This game is great. It is an H game and there are scenes that depict you getting busy making Abe from heaven beam with pride. This is one of the most wholesome H-games i have ever played. Every relationship you cultivate is unique and deep. One is about a girl finding love after being abandon and lonely, Another is about a man who beauty made him fear attention from others and made him wall off others. Another is about a person who afraid they may never find love due to their unique birth. and many more. The relationship you build will be deep and heartwarming that will def require replays to get each unique love story. As you can only romance one lover (except one that is unique and could count as two.). No harems here friend. There is also heart warming affection building for other character you cant romance but you help build there walled off hearts or help couples find more "spicy" love. The farming and ranching requires proper care. The Sprits are what you Ranch and multiple options exist to "feed" them. Not properly taking care of your spirits can lead to sad times. The farming is different each season and is used for selling, making food and also sometimes trading or minigames. There are also unique plants that can be grown into special use items to increase your max vigor or stamina. Cooking is also a feature. Affection can also be raised for certain characters and the most obvious thing is giving them gifts. As you raise their affection you unlock more personal data about them such as birth days and dialogue that might give hints to their favorite gifts and secret sometimes about other characters. Affection is the main mechanic to get into a relationship with certain character. check the library for more details. tutorial of sorts. There is also resource gathering with wood, flowers, stone and gems. Some of these are absolute needed for relationship and story progression. There are four seasons and each season has it specific crops. Each season also has its own events and minigames usually for each event. (Strangely enough one called thanksgiving oddly looks like Halloween). The story itself is kinda tear jerker little bit, really pulls on the heart strings but don't worry it has a happy ending. So just to be clear: NOT: NUKIGE. HAREM. This game is a long burn and long haul. Even after the main story their is post game content involving your direct actions. This is a very lovey dovey game.

a patch is needed for all adult contents. this is a harvest moon type game that is designed with freedom of expressions. you can play as a male or a female and you can have same sex partners. (i've only played as the male so i'm not sure what's changed with the female. maybe i'll update this review once i get the chance to try her. but this game is a slow burn so it might take a while before i try her.) the game follows monogamy laws so once you have locked in a person as a lover, you are locked in. but as long as you didn't claim a lover, all potential partners are fair game to a certain extent (what do you expect? you are not their lover. but this is what is written in the notes at the library). the number of plots of land for farming is limited to 12 plots per land expansion upgrade. vigor which is stamina in this game is very important. it is mostly used to feed your spirit beasts. spirit beasts are humanoid versions of the farm animals. chickens are phoenixes, cows are tauruses and sheep are aries. as a male, there are 2 way to feed them. normal feed and [spoiler] blowjobs(30 vigor each) [/spoiler].difference is, normal feed doesn't increase their affections. at the start of the game, you have a barn that house only 2 tauruses so i prioritize getting 2 females as they gives 2 resources. after that, i built the eyries, it say it can house 6 phoenixes so i bought 5 females but when i tried to buy a male, it says there are no space left. so my farm doesn't have any males for me to test at the moment. that said, vigor is very important so increasing it's max value is a must. to do that, you have to eat vitality fruits (i haven't found any at the moment), have sex or if you have enough vigor, [spoiler] masturbate [/spoiler] when you go to bed. if you didn't do any of these actions, your max vigor value will decrease. to recover vigor, you can eat food you cooked yourself or eat at the restaurant and once a day, you can go to the hot spring for a full recovery. eating at the restaurant depends on what options you choose. a quick meal heals 30 vigor, chef recommendation 70 and full course 250. there is an easy mode when you start the game. it gives you enough resources to upgrade all your tool to max level, making collecting resources a breeze. 100k money and magic that increase affections (you can't use it because your max vigor is too low to cast it). this game is a slow burn. despite my playtime of nearly 3 hrs, i'm only at day 12. writing a full in-depth review will require some time. will update this review later. # update 1. male phoenixes also lays eggs?! make that make sense! this game is really slow going. 9 hrs in and i just complete spring. # update 2. the main plot of the story is to collect special gemstones for the planetarium. each stone you get fill the moon a little. your task is to turn the moon full.
