An Drochshaol - The Hard Times

This is a farming game in set in Ireland during the 1800s - starting shortly before the Great Famine. You play as a tenant who uses their land to farm cash crops to pay their landlord, and food crops to feed their family. 

Each in-game season is 14 days long, and rent is due at the start of each season.

To grow a crop, you till the ground with a hoe, plant the seed, and water it every day until fully grown. Then you use the shovel to harvest it.
Oats take 2 days to grow, potatoes take 3 days, and barley takes 4 days.

Every season you survive slightly increases your chances of success when sailing to America.
