Stardew Valley meets Pokémon! Experience a wholesome JRPG-farm game inspired by the classics! Train cute blob creatures, take care of your farm and make friends with the people of Clover Town.
RPG Gamers summaryExciting news for avid gamers, particularly those who appreciate the unique fusion of classic JRPG, farming, monster-taming, and life-sim genres! A new game, Ova Magica, is proving to be an enthralling gaming experience that draws inspiration from a wide range of beloved games such as Stardew Valley, Slime Rancher, Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, Pokémon, Grandia, Jade Cocoon and Azure Dream.
Ova Magica transports players to a charming and enigmatic hamlet known as Clover Town, where you’re immersed in the intriguing world of farmstead life. However, the farming adventure takes a delightful twist with the introduction of adorable, rotund creatures (also known as Blobs) hatching from eggs. These blobs can be tamed, trained, fed, and loved, quite similar to monster companions in other games.
The developers have designed the Blobs in a variety of different types - Forest, Storm, or Magma - each with its own unique abilities and characteristics. Nurturing a strong bond with your blobs allows them to assist with farm activities, participate in battles against rival blob trainers, and even help uncover the hidden secrets of Clover Town.
The game goes beyond raising blobs. It includes numerous other engaging activities, such as exploring new worlds that contain priceless artifacts and strange items, unlocking the mysteries of temples and dungeons, trading goods on the local market in Clover Town, and building friendships with the unique characters of the town.
Combat in Ova Magica involves a strategic Active Time Battle system requiring observational and tactical skills. To find rare blobs and useful items, players will need to go on exciting expeditions, each bringing its own unique set of challenges that promise thrilling gaming moments.
Crafting is also well-incorporated into the gameplay through the usage of a workbench, allowing the creation of new items and the decoration of your farm and home.
Despite still being in development, Ova Magica paints a promising picture of an engaging, wholesome game that skillfully bridges several popular gaming genres.
