How co-op works
Two local players share the campaign as Stella and Daffodil. Both platform and handle farming, mining, fishing, cooking, crafting, and ship chores in parallel; Stella retains NPC dialogue, while Daffodil supports passengers and resource work.
About this game
Spiritfarer casts you as a ferrymaster guiding spirits through their final journey, blending resource management with heartfelt storytelling. The Farewell Edition bundles the full game and three content updates into one complete package. A second player can drop in locally to help as Daffodil the cat, making this a cooperative experience built around companionship and care rather than conflict.

You sail a customizable boat across a hand-drawn world, gathering resources, cooking meals, building workshops, and tending to the needs of each passenger. Every spirit has a story, and helping them find closure before they move on creates genuine emotional weight. The gentle pace and emphasis on routine tasks feel warmer when shared.
Local couch co-op lets a partner handle platforming, farming, and errand-running alongside you on the same screen. Communication becomes key as you juggle multiple passengers and their overlapping requests. Sessions turn into collaborative rituals of crafting, exploring, and deciding together when it's time to let a character go.
