Explore Meadowfell: A Peaceful Fantasy World on iOS

                Meadowfell is a super-casual, laid-back open-world explorer
                Experience a procedurally generated fantasy world, shapeshift into animals and roam free
                No quests, no combat, no conflict; snore-inducing or wonderfully relaxing? You decide
            

When it comes to making a relaxing experience in gaming, there's always the issue of how you exactly keep the actual playable aspects. I mean, for as laid-back as Stardew Valley is, there's still the occasional heart-pounding plunge into the mines, right? Well, Meadowfell, a new release out now for iOS (coming soon to Android) takes a decidedly different tack.

In Meadowfell, there is absolutely no combat or challenge whatsoever. And if you think that sounds boring, you'd be right, but at the same time, Meadowfell offers plenty to do and explore that'll keep you engaged, and relaxed. You'll explore a procedural fantasy world, encountering various forms of wildlife and stunning landscapes.

But it's not just a walking sim either, in Meadowfell you can unlock new animal forms to shapeshift into or build your garden to create a cosy home. There's also dynamic weather to offer stunning new atmospheres, and a photo mode to take pictures of your world.

I admit I'm not quite sure what to make of Meadowfell. I may prefer a more relaxed experience, with the strategy genre being a favorite, but I'm not sure how much I'd enjoy something that intentionally has no combat or conflict whatsoever; not even a hunger meter.

But concurrently, Meadowfell is not lacking in content. The ability to create your own home and garden, take pictures, explore, shapeshift and more all means that there's plenty to actually do besides passively experiencing the landscape. And if you get bored you can always just start a new game, with the procedural generation offering a new place to explore each time.
