Once Upon a Farm is a 2D animated RPG made with RPGM by Wild Kraken Studio. You play William Shepherd, a young man starting a new life at Morgan Farm. The game lets you explore the farm, meet its residents, help with daily chores, build relationships, and follow choices as events unfold. It is a sandbox-style experience with a male protagonist and adult themes such as milf.
The current build is v0.2, released on September 10, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows and is available in English and Spanish without censorship. The update adds Clementine content with morning, afternoon, and night progression, new scenes, events, CGs, animated CGs, map sprites, and interactions. Maeve gains new afternoon events, CGs, animated CGs, and map sprites. A hedge maintenance task lets you trim and clear the front hedge. New systems include name customization for William, dialogue integration, mouse-wheel scrolling for vertical CGs, and a bust system.
