You just moved to the province to live a simple life. You promised yourself you’ll get things done in 10 days. Plant crops, make friends, mine the mountains, populate your pond and donate to the museum to achieve your goals.

A simple life is a 1-2 player roll & write game inspired by relaxing pixel art farming video games such as Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon.

Game Summary
The game is played in 10 rounds. Each round you roll 5 dice. Use the dice on locations on the sheet and perform the location’s action. When you run out of dice the round ends and a new round is started. If you completed your goal at the end of the game, count your score.
