New Game Is Like Stardew Valley Set in Ancient China

Halcyon Days at Taoyuan is a new indie life and farming sim that plays a bit like Stardew Valley in Ancient China, just with the addition of creature collection, martial arts, and a few other bells and whistles. It launched in late January 2026 to a largely positive player response, adding to the list of distinctive indie titles that may appeal to Stardew Valley fans.
