Spirit of the Backwaters

Play Spirit of the Backwaters


Spirit of the Backwaters is a rural life-sim with farming and some management elements. You'll play as a budding entrepreneur who's tasked with running and managing the local toddy shop. Turn it into a cash cow or a quaint little hideaway that serves nothing short of the finest quality toddy. The choice is yours!

Toddy is a mildly alcoholic drink made from the sap of coconut trees and is known by different names around the world. It's more than just a drink – it's an integral part of local cuisine and community celebrations.

Navigate obstacles like insects and bad weather to supply the toddy shop with the required amount of quality toddy every business day. Using higher quality tools and materials yields better toddy, but with lower quantity. It's a balancing act!

Get to know an eccentric but wholesome cast of villagers who take their toddy very seriously, so make sure you serve up the good stuff.

Experience the simple joys of rural life as you explore the idyllic backwaters. Let the charming pixel art scenery transport you to a world where life moves at a slower pace.
