Short description

A cozy farming sim with a mystical, introspective soul. Over a 12-day cycle, players tend their inner garden, answer letters and talk with spirit animals called Ánimas. Everything they do, and everything they don’t, reveals their personality through their dominant Ánimas.

Full description

Know Your Ánima is a cozy, introspective farming sim independently developed by Jadsa Games, the games label of Jadsa Studio. For 12 days and nights, players tend a dreamlike garden that works as a mirror of their personality: every action, and every omission, quietly feeds a profile that is revealed when the cycle ends.

The farming layer features 16 crops across 4 families (flowers, fruits, herbs and vegetables), a day and night cycle, rain that soaks the soil and a Spiritual Shards economy for buying seeds and repairing and upgrading tools. Epifanía, a small frog, guides the first steps and runs the shop.

The narrative layer is made of letters carrying questions, dilemmas and small confessions, and visits from 12 Ánimas with 24 facets who talk with the player and listen to their answers. The Book of Echoes offers optional activities for those who want to go deeper.

At the end of the cycle, a card ceremony reveals the player’s Ánima archetype, led by their dominant Ánima, with a reading of their free time, social life and love life. Each run lasts 2.5 to 3 hours, has no game over and changes from run to run, inviting players back to complete the Ánima Album.
