Evaluation
Brookhaven Grimoire launched on February 18, 2022. On that same day, the developer (a solo indie creator) explicitly promised continued content additions — specifically new romance options, more quests, and more spells. Throughout 2022, the game received a consistent stream of updates: feature patches, two major updates (version 1.2.0 on October 30, 2022, and the language localization update 1.2.1 on December 6, 2022), and a holiday patch on December 22, 2022.
In the October 2022 major update post, the developer mentioned beginning work on a new game called Monsters of Seabrook, but explicitly stated this did NOT mean they were finished updating Brookhaven.
However, December 22, 2022 was the last time the developer posted anything publicly. The active update cadence that characterized all of 2022 has been completely absent since then — now more than three and a half years of silence. The promised content (new romance options, quests, spells) was never delivered or officially cancelled. There has been no announcement that development is complete, no final update post, and no explanation for the extended silence.
The two DLC items listed are both cosmetic backer rewards that released on launch day, so they don't indicate any ongoing content pipeline. The game is still purchasable on Steam. Given the unresolved promises made at launch and the long, unexplained silence since December 2022, it's uncertain whether the planned additions will ever arrive.

About this game
The world of Brookhaven exists in a dark storybook filled with dangerous creatures, friendly townsfolk, and – most importantly – adventure! Within, you will find a thriving magical community of unique and eccentric characters to meet and learn about, and (with little charm) you might even fall in love and start a family with one of these new neighbors. Quest, explore, farm, socialize; whatever you decide, adventure and excitement await in Brookhaven!

- Learn how to perform magic! Magic is the backbone of this world and everything revolves around it.
- Figure out the mysteries hidden within the storybook by exploring the Unwritten Lands. Perhaps you’ll solve the mystery of how to return to your world of origin or you may decide to stay. The choice is yours.
- Summon Minions! As you progress in the story, you can craft or find trinkets to summon minions that will help you fight in battles.
- Supernatural Abilities! There are 5 different supernatural creatures that the player can be turned into or be infected with.
- Customize your player appearance, home, and property. Start with a simple home overrun with trees, rocks, and weeds and make it your own.
- Over 100 mythical creatures roam throughout the land, including: witches, werewolves, dyads, centaurs, mermaids, vampires, yetis, slimes, mummies, zombies, ghosts, demons, goblins, talking animals and vegetables, and so much more.
- Improve your skills over time. You can level up your skills by fighting, performing magic, farming, foraging, catching bugs, fishing, and mining. Each level unlocks different crafting recipes and improves your success rate in that skill along the way.
- Embrace the mystical pagan traditions of the locals, and become part of their community.
- Grow vegetables, herbs, flowers, nuts, and fruit trees. These items can be used in cooking recipes, alchemy recipes, quest lines, or as gifts to villagers. Each villager has their own unique likes and dislikes for items they receive.
- Forage the land for mushrooms, flowers, and herbs that change with the seasons.
- Bug Catching. Collect rare and exotic specimens that you can collect in the museum, use in potions, give as gifts, or sell for profit.
- Fish in the ocean, rivers, and lake. As with everything else, the fish are seasonal with the added catch of also being location dependent. You can improve your fishing rod by using different baits and gadgets.
- Extensive cooking, blacksmithing, alchemy, and tailoring systems.
- Explore the vast mysterious Dungeon that contains some of the most dangerous creatures, puzzles, and quest lines.
- Raise animals for their resources, including: egg collecting, feather collecting, milking, shearing, and animal sacrifice. The different species that the player can raise includes: Cat, Dog, Chickens, Ducks, Rabbits, Peafowl, Cows, Sheep, Goats, Pigs, Alpacas, Foxes, Skunks, Penguins, Snow Phoenixes, Ravens, Owls, Parrots, Zombies, Mummies, and Slimes.
- Romance and marry a partner to share your home and life with. Have children who will grow from infanthood, attend classes as children, and make their own life in town.
