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 have left it in need of a hero – that's you!
From City Lights to Village Life
Alba's aging population and the allure of city life have left the village struggling. Your mission? Revive Alba! This isn't just about tending crops and animals; you'll be the key to attracting tourists, expanding your farm, and rebuilding the community.
Expect a full plate of activities: planting, harvesting, animal care, fishing, and even mining! But it's not all hard work. The game introduces a "happiness" mechanic, crucial for village growth and attracting new residents. Participate in village events and festivals to boost your progress.
And of course, no Harvest Moon 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 strayed from the series' core farming gameplay, venturing into puzzle mechanics. While enjoyable, it didn't satisfy the desires of long-time fans. Rest assured, Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home is a return to the roots of the franchise.
Natsume's CEO, Hiro Maekawa, promises a nostalgic experience. Expect traditional farming gameplay, complete with all the features you've come to love from the Harvest Moon series. Check out the recently released Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home trailer on YouTube for a glimpse at the visuals.
