Gameplay
Jenny was left behind by her family, lost in the prairie. The player needs to keep her safe, fed and watered as she prepares herself for the coming winter. She can chop wood for a fire, pick flowers, pick wheat, and hunt rabbits for food and for fur to keep warm. She may also attempt to tame a fox. She needs to avoid the mountain lion and rattlesnake; if they get to Jenny it is game over.
