If you want a polished game, then this is NOT for you. It has bugs and wonky terrain collision. It kindof looks like Oblivion or Skyrim from the visuals even on max graphics. The dialogue most part isn't reactive to events that have happened (even to those NPCs themselves).
Other than that, it's wonderful. Interesting and fun. Save often and if you can't get some achievements on your first run there are always saves available in the guides section that help you get them faster.
Great chill game. Walk around, paint beautiful landscapes, help people. Stutters a bit (5700X3D, 3080) but mostly alleviated by turning graphics down.
One of the best cozy games I've played! You get to explore the entire beautiful island, and there are lots of quests to complete.
Graphics aren't always everything; this has great atmosphere and a soothing property I think is even better than action and gore sometimes. Well worth a game or two
Its a great chill cosy game.
A soothing and unique adventure.
As a traveling painter, you explore vivid landscapes, create art and uncover heartfelt stories. Personally, I find the visuals beautiful and the serene soundtrack perfectly complements the calming atmosphere. The voice acting for the NPCs is great, adding depth and personality to the world.
The painting mechanic is simple and rewarding, but not outstanding. The quests encourage exploration. However, they can sometimes feel repetitive.
Despite that, Eastshade is a standout game for anyone looking for a peaceful and immersive escape. Its relaxing world, creative gameplay, and touching NPCs make it a memorable journey, that's well worth experiencing.
I enjpy it a lot.
Eastshade is a breathtakingly beautiful adventure game that feels like a moving painting. Its story and art direction are absolutely superb, creating a serene and immersive atmosphere that encourages exploration and creativity. The painting mechanic is a standout feature—unique, innovative, and integral to the gameplay, making it unlike anything I’ve experienced in other games.
The world itself is a joy to explore, filled with stunning vistas and charming characters, and the overall atmosphere is incredibly relaxing. However, I did encounter a frustrating bug where the save function suddenly stopped working, which took some effort to resolve. Aside from that hiccup, the game was a perfect experience.
If you’re looking for a game that combines gorgeous visuals with creative mechanics and a sense of tranquility, Eastshade is a must-play.
It wasn't for me, but I could definitely see the appeal. Beautifully designed, interesting characters, but walking sims, even the great ones, are a love-it-or-hate-it relationship. Still, you should give it a try, it's not expensive and it IS a cool game.
Definitely recommend to anyone who needs to run away from the real world and catch a breath or forget about stress and sadness. Eastshade is a place where people know that the true meaning of life is about tea, poetry and enjoying the beauty of the world around them. Everyone is nice, the sceneries of the island are amazing and your only quest is to enjoy. I wish I could life there…
+ setting and animation
+ easy game play
+ feelgood game

- nothing
I quite literally only did a single quest before dropping the game - unfortunately, the core mechanic of creating paintings of whatever you want is done poorly, which for me makes the game completely worthless. The game is about taking pretty screenshots, yet those screenshots actually look HORRIBLE (they just look like super low-quality screenshots, not paintings - if there is a painting-style filter it's done really poorly). Performance is also not great, and the graphics are pretty bad for a game specifically designed around being beautiful.
Yes
If you're expecting a chill exploration game where you simply paint scenery, this game isn't it. The scenery is very pretty (though the graphics really aren't that great). I didn't make it far into the game and ended up refunding it simply because it was not fun to play.
The first time I played the game I got an infinite loading screen and had to start over. The character design is simply atrocious. During the time I played I genuinely didn't feel like I was relaxing or exploring, as the quests given were just to help NPCs. I thought I could just go and paint whatever I want, but that was just not the case.
I'm not exaggerating when I call this my comfort game. Getting to wander around beautiful scenery, making friends, helping others, and capturing that scenery in paintings is the perfect kind of escapism I seek out when I need just a little bit of quiet and comfort in my life. I will never stop recommending this game.
Peaceful!
This game is relaxing.
The good:
- Really peaceful, beautiful environments
- Good voice-acting
- Immersive
- Fun quests, nice variety and often gives different approaches/choices you can make
What can be improved:
- No or not enough explanation/tutorials about what you need to do / how some game mechanics work
- Journal quest entries can be vague, leaving you unsure on how to progress
- Bugs! Quiiite a few of them. Save often.
Relaxing and enjoyable. Needed a bit more info than the game gave on two quests. No big deal. Rest was great.
I bought and played it immediately when it came out and loved it.
Now I've played it again after 5 years and it holds up still, it's a beautiful and relaxing game.
If you like collecting things and doing side quests then boy do I have a game for you
This is very cozy and relaxing game and in the end it delivers what it promised. It has some faults but I did enjoy it. First of all the textures are really rough so the quality is way below what you see on the screenshots. For me it was still good enough though. The conversations unfortunately do not matter much and most of the characters live in the same place even without going to a city or village nearby (seems lazy backstory writing). Quests could be difficult to follow since there are no quest markers. If you make a pause for a while from the game, the only way to figure out who waits for you and where to go would be to use a guide. It is an idyllic place so there is no drama, no fighting just simple day to day cases. There is no romance either (there is one quest assisting two females find love in each other but that is literally it for the whole game). Warning - painting pictures is more or less less screenshoting what you see - your task is to find a proper composition so be mindful of what you expect from the game.
Eastshade is a very good adventure game, this is a sequel to Leaving Lyndow game. The story is great, the graphics are really beautiful and the ambiant is so cozy. I recommend it!!! 💗💗💗
If you play adventure RPGs and enjoy the cosy side-quests as a breather from the stress of combat, then this is the game for you. Eastshade is incredibly relaxing. There is no rush to complete anything by specific times, no fighting. You go at your own pace and it is about impossible to get lost in what you should do next: just follow one of the questlines.
Such a visually stunning game with lots of fun tasks and quests to complete. Has got to be in my top 10 of favorite games.
Eastshade is a quaint adventure built on the premise of a first person RPG in which the protagonist paints works of art to advance the story rather than slaying monsters. Accordingly, it is full of gorgeous vistas and touching tableaux. Eastshade isn't just a feast for the eyes, however, as the characters you'll meet are fully and charmingly voiced. It's not unusual to find them playing music, singing songs, telling stories or reciting poetry. The game also contains elements of crafting, survival, exploration and puzzle-solving but not so intensely as to disturb the vibe of peaceful relaxation.
The game is controlled by mouse and keyboard with very few options beyond the default. Anyone in need of alternate control arrangements will have to pursue a third party solution. That being said, I found the controls simple and straight-forward with convenient context-sensitive clickables as necessary but the screen suitably uncluttered otherwise.
While the graphics, as mentioned, are very nice (and a definite step above the prelude 'Leaving Lyndow'), I was pleased to see they didn't strain my ageing graphics card. On the other hand, I wouldn't have minded a little more effort in making the sun move smoothly as the tick of motion was noticeable in lights and shadows from time to time.
Speaking cynically, a lot of the game was like that; some aspects working very nicely while others lacked polish. Beautiful environments marred by the odd floating rock. A city full of interesting people marred by occasionally janky movement. Scenic vistas marred by some awkward pop-in. At the end of the day though, I found that my enjoyment of the strengths of the game far outweighed any irritation I was caused by the rough bits.
All in all, the game is about twenty hours of self-contained island adventure in an idyllic world that you won't regret visiting. But since you can't pet the cats, you better get it on sale.
genuinely a cozy game without the farming that is in every other cozy game
it's actually relaxing
plus absolutely luvvvv they have voice acting for everything
This game is beautiful! With a interesting cast of characters, lots of fun mini games, and very relaxing music, no matter your skill level this game has something for you!
"Art is not what you see, but what you make others feel".
Eastshade isn't just a game - it's a peaceful journey of creativity and connection. As an artist, you're not just painting landscapes, you're capturing the soul of a breathtaking world.
The music, the vibrant colors, and the heartfelt stories make it feel like you're part of the canvas.
Every visit to Eastshade feels like coming home.
A beautiful game through and through.
Having played this game a little bit ago after it being in my library for years (silly me for taking so long to get to it), I have thought about it countless of times since. As an indie game—especially walking simulator—connoisseur, this is truly in its own league. The absolutely gorgeous world and graphics paired with such a peaceful, comforting storyline was like a calming balm for my mind, making me cherish and enjoy every second I spent playing it... well, maybe aside from the bugged achievement incident. Though I still view that as a positive as it gave me a reason to spend even more time in this lovely world. When I say I would do anything to have this as my reality I really mean it. If there is such a thing as a next/after life I hope it's something akin to Eastshade.
At first it appears a bit unappealing and pretty unpolished, but i lost myself in the exploration and the many quests given by the inhabitants of the land. I also got some good suprises and the fact that there is not markers and guides reminds me the charms of that old games where you were forced to think by yourself and search for solutions.
It's a good and relaxing experience.
I do love this game, but I've been frustrated by the 10ish times in 7 hours of playing that the game has crashed or glitched out.
This game is very enjoyable as an escapism simulator, but it's quite glitchy.
I still recommend it. It feels like Skyrim: Snap, complete with all the glitches and occasionally wonky physics.
too many bugs.. The Arhcitecture of Lyndow quest is broken.. so many posts on forums of people with the same issue. A shame they can't fix it.. Developers just want to collect our money without consequence.
Scenery is beautiful, especially if you have the computer graphics to put it on the higher settings. The interface is very simplistic, but there are too few directions early on in my opinion, even for the few there are. It's doable though. There doesn't seem to be time constraints other than early on in the game before you have a way to keep yourself warm, because around 6:30-7pm the outside gets very cold and you are forced to go inside. If you find yourself inside, but without a bed, you just have to 'hang around' waiting for the time to pass until morning. If you're in an inn (or tent? haven't built one yet), you choose the time you want to get up. I think it's safe to go out again around 4:45am.
Gather everything (except thistles?) you can that shows gatherable, because there'll probably be a use for it down the line. I haven't run into an inventory cap yet. The premiss is painting, everything painting, but that just allows you to see more of the scenery. I like it. Quests are mostly straightforward with a few puzzles/riddles. I'm probably only about halfway through the game, but I am enjoying it so far.
its shoddily put together with bugs pop ins ugly stiff characters and animations and the drops off after you reach the largest of the two cities, however this game is also incredibly charming in a way that cannot be described and I have fallen in love with the world and the characters
An amazing and unique game.
If you want an open world RPG that does NOT focus on combat, stats and "number-go-up" but instead on exploration, story, and sense-of-place, then you should definitely check this out.
If you're looking for a walking simulator then this one might not be the ideal game. The graphics in this game is mediocre but the game itself is rather enjoyable. You go around places, talk to people, paint some canvas. A very slow-paced experience as if you're wandering through countryside.
It's a lovely game and I really enjoyed soaking in the wonderful atmosphere. The developers really made it that basically everywhere you go will have a potentially beautiful painting.
So beautiful, peaceful and interesting. The music is fantastic. I think I cried several times in the first half hour, just due to the beauty. So different than regular life.
I appreciate the five years the developer spent on this -- it was totally worth it!
Also, appreciate the nods to Tartaria and the mudflood. Delightful.
Thank you.
This is brilliant.
Honestly while playing plenty of RPGs I've come to prefer the interactions to the combat over the years, and this game answers that interest beautifully. Gathering, exploration, questing, NPCs to talk to...it's all still here. The one thing gone is hostile wildlife of belligerent bandits. Instead your professional focus is painting, and that's a joy unto itself: finding materials to build canvases, focusing on the perfect subject, and then you have a lovely creation to share with the inhabitants of the world or just keep for your own collection.
The world feels cozy and lived in. The animal creatures are charming, talkative, and responsive and FULLY VOICED which is wonderful. It's the kind of place you don't mind walking through to look at the details, watch the locals go about their day, collect some lore and other subjects to discuss, find some hidden quests to follow up advancing individual stories at your own pace. it's not cloying nor is it edgy: it's the perfect comfy blend of fantasy and the grounded mundane.
No real glitches. Some model clipping and strange physics, but nothing immersion breaking.
Only ONE suggestion would be the opening. If you can't do anything during a cutscene and nothing is effected by it, just skip to the gameplay. It's more interesting sometimes to hear the reactions to an event than witness the event itself.
i'm enjoying my time here and I think, if you crave the less bloodthirsty aspects of role-playing, you will too.
Overall a great gaming experience despite some clunkiness and occasional bugs, which honestly are somewhat expected with an indie title. I found myself incredibly engrossed in the visuals, sounds, and narratives of the world over the ~10 to 12 hour playtime and it's a prime example of "the whole is greater than the some of its parts." I'd definitely recommend this game if you're looking for a relaxing journey exploring a rich world, talking to interesting characters, doing some light crafting, and painting some cool paintings.
Honestly one of my favorite games of all time, and incredibly impressive considering the size of the dev team. Visually it goes toe to toe with any game out there. The soundtrack is fantastic, and the main story has a lot of depth considering how simple of a game this is.
It's my ultimate chill / no thinking game that I return to time and time again. Think of it as Skyrim without combat.
I know the developer is currently working on a different style game, but I really hope that they create more content in Eastshade's universe in the future!
I don't play a lot of games but decided to try this and was not disappointed! It's a cozy, non-violent, and stress-free adventure game where you explore an island and make paintings as you go. It was very relaxing to do at my own pace and rewarding to find new locations and complete quests for NPCs. I ran into a few glitches with quests not progressing or completing properly, but restarting the game fixed it each time. Highly recommend.
This game is slightly challenging your mind every now and then. Besides that its fun to explore especially the way you need to unlock certain means of exploration makes this part quite rewarding. Seeing various beautiful landscapes and some interesting NPC personalities round it up. It is basically a bit like Gothic2, just without the combat and more focused on the interaction activities. Now, this comparison is hardly perfect by any means but it might help some people to have a rough idea what might to expect.
Edit: After doing a second run in a more "speed run" style to get a missing achievement one particular bug that only happened like twice in my first run of about 16h happened quite often in the 3-4h I took for my second run: random game crash. I got the feeling that doing things faster greatly increases the probability of it happening. Or maybe I was just lucky on my first run. Anyways, as with many other games, I recommend the option to manually back-Up by just copying the save-files maybe every 1-2h and saving very frequently ingame if you cannot stand the risk of loosing larger amounts of progress which then has to be redone.
Visually this is a beautiful game. being able to explore and paint and generally enjoy the exploration of the game feels so satisfying. The storyline is fairly short ~10-15 hours but being able to explore and relax makes this an absolutely wonderful experience.
My criticism would be collisions on rocks, especially on coastlines and a few other small things.
I would also call out the price of it. I think £20 is slightly too high, with ~£15-17 being a more appropriate price, given what you are getting, although I'd strongly recommend buying it on a sale.
easily an 8/10 for me & a great indie game
Charming peaceful rpg with rewarding exploration
I adore this game.
I enjoyed this beautiful game immensly. To everyone who likes walking around a really beautifully crafted island with mysteries and hidden vistas and (non-violent) adventure, I recommend Eastshade wholeheartedly.
I found this game to be absolutely lovely and well worth every penny. I'm normally a player of things like ARMA and War Thunder and this was such a refreshing change of pace. I would describe it as mindfulness in a game to be honest, with a gorgeous soundtrack and world to explore. Can't recommend it enough..
Eastshade quickly became a favourite of mine, thanks to its adventure and exploration elements. The world is beautifully designed, encouraging a slower pace that lets you soak in the environment. The game’s unique use of art as a central mechanic feels rewarding, making each discovery a new source of inspiration (literally!). I did encounter one bug that prevented me from completing a quest (for those in the know - Helem stayed on the beach), but I still received the achievement for all quests, so it didn’t impact the experience much. Overall, Eastshade is a gem for anyone who loves immersive exploration and peaceful gameplay.
Beautiful game with stunning music. I'm addicted!
