An adventure game enriched with RPG elements, developed by the Spanish studio Chibig. In Summer in Mara we play the role of an eleven-year-old who travels a picturesque archipelago and performs various tasks, while also cultivating the land and producing useful items.
Summer in Mara is an adventure game enriched with RPG elements, developed by the Chibig studio - an independent team from Spain, whose portfolio includes, among others, the genre-related game titled Deiland.
The main character of Summer in Mara is Koa - an eleven-year-old girl living on a picturesque island. When the heroine finds a letter left to her by her grandmother, she decides to travel the lands adjacent to her home, all in order to discover the secret behind the huge door on her own island. Moreover, over the course of her adventure, Koa has to face the representatives of the ominous Elit corporation, which obtains raw materials from the Mara ocean, without taking into account the consequences of their actions.
In Summer in Mara the action was shown from the third person perspective (TPP). Over the course of the game, our primary tasks are: cultivating the land (and doing our best to harvest as much as possible), gaining valuable resources needed to produce more than a hundred and thirty useful items (such as an axe for felling trees, a hammer for building structures or a hoe, which is indispensable in agricultural work), and to repair and improve boats.
The latter make it possible to travel through the archipelago and meet more than twenty different NPCs with more than a hundred quests for our character. As Koa progresses, she gains new skills that will help her cope with crafting, commerce and the exploration of the world. The game is diversified by the presence of a daily cycle and changing weather conditions.
Summer in Mara has three-dimensional graphics, which, despite their simplicity, look pleasing to the eye; this is due to the fact that the whole game is kept in a colourful, cartoony style.

Game Ratings for Summer in Mara Video Game.
PC Gamer: 52 / 100 by Lauren Morton
Colorful characters alone can't wake up this sleepy sailing and farming adventure.
Critical Hit: 6 / 10 by Brad Lang
Summer in Mara makes a great first impression with its pleasant visuals and laid-back music but ultimately fails to remain engaging for long due to repetitive quests, a hollow world and plenty of tedious mechanics
Nintendo Enthusiast: 7 / 10 by Lucas White
Summer in Mara is an adorable, thoughtful game that approaches spaces we’re very used to from a different angle. Animal Crossing thinks it’s a chill game, but it buries you under tasks, goals, and timely events. Harvest Moon slaps you with a time limit to make a great, booming farm. Dragon Quest Builders will freakin’ kill you. Summer in Mara just wants you to take care of yourself, be thankful to nature, and have a good time exploring. But it also wants you to accomplish a million tasks along the way, and that gets tedious. A shorter runtime or more variation in questlines would have done this game wonders, but as it is, it’s still a fun, relaxing adventure propelled by an endearing message.
