Get ready for a heartwarming return to classic farming! Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home, a farming simulation game, arrives on the Google Play Store August 23rd. Take on the challenge of revitalizing the neglected town of Alba, where a dwindling population and exodus to the city leaves a community in need of a hero – you!
From City Lights to Village Revival
Alba's aging population and the lure of city life have left the village struggling. Your mission? Revive Alba! Attract tourists with your bountiful harvests, expand your farm, and become the village's savior.
Your tasks are varied and engaging: planting, harvesting, tending to animals, fishing, and even mining. But it's not all hard work. The game introduces a "happiness" mechanic crucial to the village's growth and attracting new residents. Participate in village events and festivals to boost your progress.
And of course, no Harvest Moon game is complete without romance! Court eligible bachelors and bachelorettes, each with unique personalities.
A Welcome Return to Traditional Farming
Let's address the Harvest Moon: Mad Dash elephant in the room. The 2019 title took a surprising turn into puzzle gameplay. While enjoyable, it deviated from the core farming experience many fans cherished. Rest assured, Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home aims to recapture that classic feel.
Natsume's CEO, Hiro Maekawa, promises a return to the series' roots. Expect pure, unadulterated farming fun, complete with all the familiar elements you love. Check out the recently released Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home trailer on YouTube for a glimpse of the game's visuals.
