Virtual Cottage is a free idle game that encourages productivity by allowing the player to set tasks, timers, and ambience while you focus on IRL stuff. I mostly used it while I worked but I did occasionally use it while doing chores or reading.
The game's main features include:
- Setting a timer
- Creating a task list
- Customizing your character
- Picking a type of pet
- A music player featuring lofi tracks
- Ambient noise such as rain, thunder, snow, wind, cicadas, birds, and a fireplace
The music was really good with 34 additional tracks available via paid DLC. If you're curious about the music moreso than the game, most (if not all) of the music can be found via this thread.
After earning all the achievements, my time with Virtual Cottage has ended. I'll be checking out the lofi artists now that I'm finished and seeing what other music they've made. Virtual Cottage 2 has been announced and so far, its development is looking good. The teasers have revealed more customization options, the ability to load your own music in-game, and if players purchased the DLC for the first game, it transfers to the second.
Until then, I may check out similar games such as Spirit City: Lofi Sessions.
