Gameplay[edit | edit source]

This game is a brand new title which follows the events of post-game Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town (牧場物語ミネラルタウンのなかまたち) because it bears many resemblances in setting and characters. The gameplay is centered around growing your farm by selling crops in town. Unlike Friends of Mineral Town, players were able to list their produced items in a "Farmer's Market" system to connect and trade with other users. The game also had may online festivals that could be attended with other players.

Features[edit | edit source]

The appearance of the farm changes with the seasons. Such as snow in the Winter and bitterflies flying around in warmer seasons.
Various information on the TV of the home! Including commercials you can make and can watch on the TV.
Raise animals bought in the town, harvest milk from cows and eggs from chickens.
- Animals have a degree of affection, and the higher the affection, the better reward.
As the festival approaches, you will be asked to provide festival materials.
- When you go to the town on the day of the festival, the person who provided the materials will be commended and rewarded!
- The contents of the festival vary depending on the season and town. There are many festivals such as cherry blossom viewing in spring and skiing in winter!
