Story of Seasons for 3DS is another instalment in the well-received Harvest Moon series. The game had to be released under a new title, since Natsume holds rights to the name Harvest Moon. It is available only for Nintendo 3DS and was developed by Marvelous, the creators of several Harvest Moon productions, as well as Valhalla Knights and Fortune Street. In Story of Seasons, you play as an amateur farmer once again. The story takes place is a small, shabby town of Oak Tree, where the protagonist moves to in hopes of making a career. First, you have to create your character – the real adventure starts afterwards.
Mechanics
The mechanics of the gameplay are explained by NPC farmers living in Oak tree. Fans of the original series should feel at home, since the players still have to buy seeds, plant and water them, gather crops, and take care of your animals. The biggest novelty, however, is the system allowing the player to trade with other towns. You can sell goods to other players with the use of Wi-Fi. Not only you can get extra money from that, but it also improves Oak Tree's economy.
However, there's more to Story of Seasons. Like in other Harvest Moon productions, the social aspect is equally important. You can actively participate in the life of your town by meeting new people, coming to parties, or even falling in love and starting a family.
