Skeleton Farmer

We all die one day

While other farming games aim to be fast paced and exhilarating representations of agricultural life, Skeleton Farmer offers a slower pace allowing you space to experience the visceral anguish of being.

Baking

Bread is delicious! Eating bread allows us to sustain our life force. Skeleton Farmer includes an oven for those ambitious farmers that collect enough flour to bake a hearty loaf.

In Christian theology the Eucharist is bread transmuted into the body of Christ. Through consuming the flesh man transcends the mortal world and is allowed access into the Kingdom of Heaven.
