Welcome back for another Daily Dose! Perhaps all the indie horror games have been stressful. Maybe what we need is a game set somewhere more relaxing? Small Island Woes is a title by itch.io developer DavidRodmad. Set on a charming little island, you play as a maintenance person for the town’s lighthouse.

The gameplay of Small Island Woes has you visiting the lighthouse once every few weeks. You may roam around this very normal and ordinary town, speaking with the locals and observing the various items around. Check to make sure the lighthouse mechanisms are all in order, and depart as your leisure. If only we all could have a job so relaxing and not filled with dread.
