Game pageSlime Rancher: bouncy inhabitants and a growing ranch
Collect, feed and improve the ranch a little. Reviews enjoy this cycle of looking after slimes. Cute creatures and the pleasure of growing a place through your efforts come together.
Outside the ranch, there are more slimes and places to discover. Reviews also enjoy exploration beyond the farm. Whether that back-and-forth appeals helps determine the fit.
What makes it fun
Caring for slimes grows the ranch
Feed your slimes, sell the plorts they produce, and spend the earnings on corrals and upgrades. Choosing what to raise next gives each improvement to your daily routine a purpose.
Exploration gives the ranch new goals
Search the wilds for Gordo slimes and the keys they yield, then choose which door to open next. A slime found in a new area can become your next ranching project.
