Get ready for Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home, the farming sim hitting the Google Play Store on August 23rd! Step into the sleepy, somewhat rundown town of Alba and become its unlikely savior. This isn't just about crops and livestock; the entire village's revival rests on your shoulders.
From City Lights to Village Charm
Alba's population is aging rapidly, and young people are leaving for the city. That's where you come in! Attract tourists with your bountiful harvests, expand your farm, and generally bring the town back to life.
Your tasks are varied and plentiful: planting, harvesting, caring for animals, fishing, and even mining. But it's not all hard work. The game introduces a "happiness" meter, crucial for village growth and attracting new residents. Participate in local events and festivals to boost your happiness levels.
And of course, no Harvest Moon game is complete without romance! Court eligible bachelors and bachelorettes, each with unique personalities.
A Classic Farming Experience
Let's address the 2019 Harvest Moon: Mad Dash. It veered into puzzle gameplay, which, while enjoyable, didn't fully satisfy core Harvest Moon fans. But fear not! Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home aims to return to the series' roots.
Natsume's CEO, Hiro Maekawa, promises a return to classic farming gameplay. No more puzzles – just pure, unadulterated farming fun, complete with all the features you've come to expect from a Harvest Moon title. Check out the recently released Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home trailer on YouTube for a glimpse of the visuals.
