Games with farming
Games With Farming on Steam start with Clickoire, Dark Bone Prison, DAVE THE DIVER.
Crops, animals, or a homestead produce on a calendar. Time of day is a resource you spend or waste. You plant because tomorrow still exists, and you go back inside because the clock — no boss — told you it was time to stop.

How farming changes a game
Pacing is seasonal. When there is combat, it is a dungeon attached to the farm: Stardew's mines are a side dish, and the farm is what players remember. Slime Rancher keeps the calendar and swaps crops for a vacuum. A harvest minigame inside an action title does not belong here. The clip is a greenhouse in spring.
