I will not buy Pokopia because I know I won't care about building things for more than ten minutes and that's 90% of the game.

I *really* want to, though.

I was mistaken, I *did* buy Pokopia. It's... soothing, in a "whoops another hour" sort of way that I need to be careful with.

The biggest challenge so far is inventory and storage management. There are so many different items.

The complete lack of stopping points makes Pokopia worse (as in "resulting in bad behaviour", not "bad game") for me than Stardew, I think? "Alright, let's get this build started and then quit" results in a dozen other tasks as they occur to me on the way, and there's never a hard cut.

Pokopia's lost enough of its shine that I broke free and managed to catch up on weeks of housekeeping. I'd love to have a way to regulate my bad habits that isn't "stop completely", but I guess I'll uninstall it now.

But also (small Pokopia spoiler ahead)
