It’s a little slice of life type game. There are quirky neighbors you can meet and do/grow things for, building/neighborhood events you can choose to take part in, and it’s all wrapped in a theme of grief and mourning.

Thank you for the recommendation!
The grief theme reminds me Spiritfarer, I haven’t finished that game either. And I think that was kinda targeted game also…

17,000 Steam reviews, 98% positive, and only a month since launch: Dressmaker is a massive hit, and the devs reckon it shows "women are such an underserved market"
