It’s candy to listen to your chicken good friend reminisce about journeys to the shrine that he and his brother used to take, and there are many NPCs to speak with as effectively. Perfect for when you actually need to spend some extra time simply soaking in the fantastic thing about the world that developer Curlscurly have created, which I actually did.
