About This Mod

Village in the Shade is a hand-painted farming sim with a dark twist, developed by Nippon Ichi Software and published by NIS America. The game launches in the West on October 27, 2026 for Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam . Players settle into the peaceful mountain village of Kagatsu, where daily life involves planting crops, customizing their homestead, hunting, fishing, and befriending intriguing characters . But the village has rules: don't talk to strangers, don't leave the village, and never go out at night . Break them, and the cozy facade gives way to something much darker .

If you want to bypass the grind and focus on exploration or building your perfect farm, several powerful cheat tools are available for the PC version.

???? Cheat Engine Tables

Decent mod but I expected more based on the description. It's good but could use some improvements and additional features. Still worth checking out.
