Picked this up the other day as I am a sucker for both sim games and the retro 16/32bit rpg style. I have been addicted ever since. Thought I would spread it around.

I can strongly recommend it if you liked Harvest Moon, or any similar games. It's got some pretty interesting mechanics and even though its a bit light on story its engrossing nonetheless.

Interestingly it was done by one guy, who claims it was a project to teach himself coding, now it's already hit a half million sales on Steam/GOG a couple weeks after release, so I guess that speaks to the care he put into it. So anyone else got the farming bug?

I am very late to this party, but I love this game so much. It makes me feel like maybe the world isn't such a horrible place. I'm fishing, farming, mining... I have almost talked Harvey into marrying me.

I can't believe there aren't more people talking about this awesome game!


I got my fix of classic Harvest Moon games a few years ago. I have to say that I do love this type of game though.

Time Sink:
I think I put well over 130 hours into Harvest Moon DS. Every couple had paired off and married. I married the woman at the bottom of the 3rd mine to make sure everyone else could, and it seemed like the toughest person to woo; at least in my version. With that much time spent it goes without saying that everything else was done as well.


Four months later, and this is still currently my fallback game. Not playing nearly as much as I've burned out about everything that I can do currently, huge farm, won first in every contest, finished the community center, married with two kids, max relationships with all the townsfolk.

So basically maintaining the status quo until the 1.1 update drops, then I'll probably sink another 30 hours or so in right away.

Not sure what to think of the upcoming multiplayer patch..I don't really understand why that's a thing for this game.
