The sequel to My Time at Portia of the Chinese software house, My Time at Sandrock, which can be financed through the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform. My Time at Sandrock will be released in early access on PC during March 2021 and subsequently, for current and subsequent generation consoles during thesummer 2022.
In My Time at Sandrock we will play the role of a master builder who owns a workshop in Sandrock, and will have to complete various jobs commissioned by the locals and the government. Taking the reins in its predecessor, Pathea's “farming simulator”, in this new guise, will see gamers engaged in resource management, searching in areas rich in raw materials in the areas surrounding Sandrock, cooking and fighting. The developers promise the introduction of more interactive characters and more advanced NPC artificial intelligence than My Time at Portia. In addition, there will also be a good dose of "dating sim“, As it will be possible to look for a wife or husband to start a family.
Both farming simulators from Pathea Games they will share the same timeline as they are set in the same universe and beyond, according to the developers: recurring characters and links exist between the prequel and this expected title. Pathea also adds the presence of as many unpublished characters and dramatic stories to discover during the adventure that will have both the management component and a solid plot.
According to the Kickstarter page, we can find out a little more about the town of Sandrock.
It is a city-state present in the desert Eufaula, within the Alliance of Free Cities. Founded next to the Martles oasis, on top of an ancient metropolis. The city initially attracted many people interested in collecting ancient wrecks silted up in the desert and, over time, it has changed into a large city in absolute decay. Many people have left Sandrock, and the glories of yore can only be passed down. Water is a precious commodity in the city, it is the only resource obtainable from the nearby oasis. Precisely by virtue of the surrounding desert area, the presence of trees is very rare and, consequently, so is wood.
My Time at Sandrock allows us to develop lateral thinking and many other alternatives in this management role-playing game with sandbox elements. A multiplayer mode distributed in the form of an update will also be available in the future.
Currently the campaign on Kickstarter has reached almost half of the goal, almost totaling €40,000 (the ceiling is € 84,504) with a total of almost eight hundred supporters. The campaign will end in 26 days.
