Moss Hollow · a small game
Moss Hollow is a small farming and foraging game about a valley that keeps going whether you show up or not. Play for ten minutes or two hours. Nothing wilts because you were busy.
Never any. Not between days, not for a bigger barn.
No energy, no waiting, no crops rotting overnight.
Nothing is locked behind a second payment.
One price, every device you own, forever.
Ten minutes a day
Forage the woods, trade with six neighbours who remember what you gave them, plant what the season allows, and slowly work out why the old mill stopped.
Baskets of chanterelles, sloes, wet bark and things you cannot identify yet.
Six neighbours, each with a long memory for kindness and for jam.
Whatever the season allows, at whatever pace suits the week you are having.
About the old mill, which stopped a long time before you arrived.
About 28 real days each
Four seasons of about 28 real days each. Spring is mushrooms and mud. Summer is the fair. Autumn is the best month and everyone says so. Winter is quiet and a little sad on purpose.
Season one
Mushrooms and mud, and a valley that smells like rain on stone.
Season two
The fair. Bunting, a competition you can lose gracefully, long light.
Season three
The best month and everyone says so. Everything at once, gold everywhere.
Season four
Quiet, and a little sad on purpose. The mill sits under snow and waits.

Nothing to go down
Playable how you play
One-handed portrait play, full colourblind palettes, adjustable text size up to 200 percent, and no reflex or timing challenge anywhere in the game.
Every action sits inside the reach of one thumb.
Full alternate palettes, not a filter bolted on at the end.
The interface reflows properly at every step of the scale.
No timing challenge anywhere. Nothing you can be too slow for.
