    Warning! Contains Bears

    How many bears do you expect? Bears may have dominated social media discussion recently and I’m sure people have plenty of reasons for “picking the bear” so I’m not going to try and tie this in, but have you ever considered bears?

There’s a bit of a Stardew Valley set-up to the story, with our main character Haru burning out from her office job and starting a new life away from it all, on a tropical island.…
