Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 3.14/day in the week to Aug 22 → 2.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Rusty's Retirement is an idle-farming simulator designed to sit at the bottom of your screen allowing you to work on other tasks while caring for your farm!
Grow crops:
Plant crops and watch Rusty get to work as he waters, nurtures, and harvests. Unlock new crops as you progress, from crispy carrots to ripe tomatoes.
Produce biofuel:
Use crops to produce clean and energy-efficient biofuel, a vital robot power source. Sell biofuel to other machine inhabitants and reinvest the money into expanding your farm.
Automate with robots:
Deploy a team of cute little robots to assist with planting, watering, and harvesting. Customize and upgrade your helper bots to increase efficiency.

Multitasking:
Rusty's Retirement is built to sit comfortably at the bottom of your screen allowing you to do other tasks while caring for your farm. Zoom in or out for a less distracting view, or alternatively turn on 'Focus Mode' which slows down crop production.
Vertical mode:
You can also create a new vertical farm that sits comfortably at the side of your screen.
Twitch Integration available:
Streamers and viewers can build a farm together. Viewers can control what task their robot should focus on through chat commands like !plant !water !harvest.

Ein kleiner, aber feiner Idle-Titel, in dem ihr – ähnlich wie in Stardew Valley – Pflanzen anbaut und euren Hof nach und nach immer weiter automatisiert. Der Fortschritt verläuft dabei angenehm gemächlich. Normalerweise könnte das für manche Spieler ein Nachteil sein, doch das Spiel besitzt ein Feature, das dieses Tempo perfekt ergänzt: Es läuft nicht im klassischen Vollbildmodus, sondern nimmt nur einen kleinen Teil des Bildschirms ein. Zudem lässt sich frei einstellen, wo das Spielfenster platziert werden soll. Dadurch eignet es sich hervorragend als Nebenbei-Spiel. Man kann entspannt YouTube schauen, eine Serie laufen lassen oder andere Dinge am PC erledigen und zwischendurch immer mal wieder einen Blick auf seinen kleinen Garten werfen. Dann werden neue Gebäude errichtet, Verbesserungen gekauft oder zusätzliche Pflanzen freigeschaltet, bevor das Spiel wieder eine Weile vor sich hinläuft. Wer gerne spielt, ohne seine volle Aufmerksamkeit investieren zu müssen, findet hier genau das Richtige. Ein wunderbar entspannter Idle-Titel, der sich perfekt für gemütliche Abende nebenbei eignet.

For a desktop idler I was expecting more of an automated kind of thing out of the gate. For instance, I was thinking it'd be more along the lines of a fish tank or ant terrarium where you make a change and then watch it change and grow, then later make a change and watch that impact it, etc... For this game, it was having me plant crops, they'd grow and then I'd have to replant them and that'd occur very quickly. Now you can turn down the crop speed via focus mode if you want it to take longer but it simply stretches the growth speed. And like I guess that kind of makes it more idle but it feels like wrong or something, it's hard for me to describe.... it's like a similar feeling of playing against someone who intentionally loses to you but you know they did that is the closest thing I can think of... Anyway... I think the main brunt of the point I'm trying to get at is that I really don't like how the automatic planting is locked away with Splunk and how long it would take to get to that point. I'd much prefer that to be accessible at the start or at least very quickly unlocked since it's an idler game. If that option is ever added I'd probably re-buy and change my recommendation but until then it's just not for me as it's just not really idle from the start.
Fantastic for WFH/Idling between tasks or other games too, also super cute and satisfying to work on new farm layout unlocks!
我十分推荐这款可以待在桌面,只需挂机的游戏。每当我想摸鱼的时候,我都会把这个游戏横放在桌面下,然后骗老板这是桌面壁纸引擎所提供的壁纸( 就算你认真玩它,你也很难感到厌倦,因为真的是太上头了!
The art style is really cute and I love the music as well. The gameplay is as intense as you want it to be, up to a point of course, which works really well for me. It's motivating me to do the really monotonous tasks at work.
If feels good when you can work for a while during playing this game
玩的卡 不知道挂着干嘛
At first I thought "ooo, im old I and luv idle games, especially if its about farmin!" This is and isnt an idle game. Yes you can let it jus chill. But if you are a min/maxer P0W3RG4M3R as many of us are. You dont want to Farm, you have farmed your whole life. You want to dominate. Find the perfect plots to where everything is covered and automated. Printing money like you bought a Brother for the first time (dont do that). The idle side is fun but having a well oiled machine is like "corn" to use older folk. This game got me hooked. Their are so many ways to build. I Started with just a crop/biofuel farm and am now doing a crop/bee&berries/fuel build. It does have a learning curve very slightly, but it is more about your coverage and machine. I have not turned this off since I got it. I will mess with my crops and skills thought the day, set up a good long lasting farm at night and go crash to re seed in the am. Reminds me of when I was a kid and helped my Grandfather. If you like chill and rewarding games or just idlers, you will like this. There are so many options. I couldnt put it in an exact spot but I would say an semi-idle stardew with only crops and animals. Great if you just like chill games, and when you want to play something else. Set some crops up and go play. Come back to some fresh dirt and tons of money/fuel. A very deep game for an idler. 10/10 for a idle game for sure.
上班摸鱼必备~种菜可太有瘾了,就是前期一点也不放置,要常常点点点,后面开自动种植就好了~
love my corner garden while doing school and work
