Tiny Pasture is the latest idle game taking over Steam (and luckily, it’s nothing like that Banana clicker). Who wouldn’t love watching tiny baby animals waddling around at the bottom of your screen? While some players are happily tending to their foxes, rabbits, and fluffy critters, others are on a mission to get 5-star animals. Unfortunately, I have some bad news: that’s not so easy, and breeding won’t help you get there.

Breeding animals and their rating in Tiny Pasture

In Tiny Pasture, you can breed all your animals at the Mystery Curtain facility, as long as they’re the same species. Just pair up a male and female, then decide if you want the baby to keep a parent’s name and appearance, and whether you’d like a random color. But don’t expect the new animal to have a higher rating than its parents. If you’re trying to breed 4-star animals hoping for even better babies, that’s just not how it works.

Remember, when you breed two animals, you won’t get to keep the parents – you’ll only get their newborn, which inherits their combined income. Since animal houses have limited space and extra slots cost 500 coins, breeding is a smart way to manage that.

The only way to get those precious 5-star beauties is by buying them in the store, but they’re incredibly rare. When you make a purchase, you won’t know the exact quality of the animal until it joins your roster. However, you can set a target quality – but the result is still random. The catch? The higher the quality you aim for, the more it’ll cost.

If you’re in the mood for some chill games, check out other new releases on Steam like Ropuka’s Idle Island or Rusty’s Retirement. And don’t forget, there are also some more challenging indie gems that you might have overlooked.

Been with gamepressure.com since 2019, mostly writing game guides but you can also find me geeking out about LEGO (huge collection, btw). Love RPGs and classic RTSs, also adore quirky indie games. Even with a ton of games, sometimes I just gotta fire up Harvest Moon, Stardew Valley, KOTOR, or Baldur's Gate 2 (Shadows of Amn, the OG, not that Throne of Bhaal stuff). When I'm not gaming, I'm probably painting miniatures or admiring my collection of retro consoles.
