But aside from a potential marriage, there’s no gameplay bonus to be gained from talking to these characters no Persona-like stat increases or anything. With more conversation comes more connection, and eventually, even romantic relationships can blossom with a healthy amount of gift-giving.

It is true that if you talk to every villager every day, you will find out more about their lives. Others might argue that the story in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town comes from the player’s interactions with the various townsfolk scattering the village just outside the farm. I know a lot of farm sim fans would say these games are designed for players to zone out and relax and that a narrative isn’t needed for that, but anyone seeking motivation will likely find that Friends of Mineral Town should be renamed to “JRPG Sidequest: The Game.” I’m a pretty narrative-driven player, and without one, I didn’t feel there was any reason to be satisfied with my growing farm. You play as a kid who inherits their grandpa’s farm, and you spend your days watching the farm grow while interacting with the surrounding townsfolk.

From what I’ve read, the GameBoy Advance version of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town is a series favorite that introduced quite a few mechanics that have become series stables. The only titles I’ve previously played were the original Harvest Moon for the Super Nintendo and Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life for the GameCube. Whew!Īgain, I’m not very familiar with the Story of Seasons series. Those two GameBoy Advance games have now been slapped together, made 3D, and released for modern consoles under the current Story of Seasons banner.

A second version of the GameBoy Advance game called Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town was created, featuring a female protagonist. Harvest Moon: Back to Nature was remade for the GameBoy Advance as Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town. It lands between Bokujō Monogatari 2 (aka Harvest Moon 64) and Bokujō Monogatari 3 (aka Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland). The simple way to explain all that was a Story of Seasons PS1 game released as Harvest Moon: Back to Nature in North America.
