Stardew Valley creator's Haunted Chocolatier is "more of an action RPG" than a farming sim

Eric Barone told GQ that his upcoming game Haunted Chocolatier is still a "town game" but leans toward action RPG, focusing on adventuring, finding equipment and getting stronger, with monsters and boss fights. No release date has been announced — the game will come out when it's done.

• Barone: main focus is adventuring, equipment and getting more powerful
• The game will feature monsters and boss fights
• It is a more "metaphysical" experience than Stardew Valley
• No release date: "the game will come out when it's done"
