Our take on No Place Like Home
Rather than centering on combat or survival against hostile forces, the game makes cleanup, recycling, farming, and ecological repair its main progression activities. Its post-apocalyptic setting becomes a backdrop for restoring landscapes, caring for animals, rebuilding a village, and decorating a home.
What is No Place Like Home?
No Place Like Home is a farming and adventure game set on an Earth largely abandoned for Mars.
Ellen Newland returns to visit her grandfather, but finds him missing and his farm destroyed. Exploration involves clearing rubbish, recovering recyclable resources, and restoring damaged areas across zones including Lonely Hills, Frozen Peaks, and a desert. Recycled materials support construction, farming, cooking, preserves, home decoration, and village rebuilding. Ellen can find and grow plants, trade prepared food, make honey and jams, rescue and domesticate animals, and befriend local neighbours. Environmental tasks include repairing damage caused by poisonous gases, addressing an old factory leak, and breaking a giant dam to release a river. The game also includes house customization and animal parties.
