  • BORING

    there is nothing to do! i can literally go thru my day by 1:30pm they don’t give you anything to do i’ve been through 22 days and there hasn’t been any festival? and i can’t build the building i actually need because i can’t get the materials it’s been 22 days on the game an i haven’t gotten a way to smash the rocks or do anything other than water my crops and run around the whole town looking for nothing. i love harvest moon but this is SO boring and dumb. and it’s almost impossible to make money because all you can do is plant and water crops! i wish i could get my $ back.
  • Not That Bad

    Okie okie…I see the issues that some people have complained about.

    The game does tend to crash when you are doing a lot of things and the loading screens are a little on the long side, but,

    This is a good game and this is coming from someone who likes Story of Seasons more.

    The game isn’t all that bad, the characters are a little dull and the lack of character customization is a tad frustrating…however it’s still pretty fun to play.

    Fishing?? Easy. Literally all you do is tap the screen, idk why so many reviewers say it’s impossible?? You’re just tapping.

    The farming is simple and easy, if you lightly hold down one of the corners to your tilled spot you can drag to select more spaces to throw more seeds all at once, you can also do this with harvesting crops.

    Collecting materials is easy and getting money through fishing is a breeze, I’m still in the first season and already hit 20k multiple times.

    Some aspects are still annoying or an inconvenience but I mean…for like $7 this is pretty fun and tbh…a lot easier to control the character than Stardew!!! And Stardew has always been my #1 game!!

    If you have the extra funds take a chance. It’s a really chill way to pass the time once you really start getting into it.
  • Don’t Be Scared of the Bad Reviews!!

    I love farming life sim games. The kind you find on Steam, Xbox, and Switch. I was searching for something similar that I could play on my IPad Pro. There aren’t a lot and I was worried about purchasing this one because of the negative reviews. I finally decided to give it a try. The only complaint I have is the lack of controller support. I wish that worked a little better but the touch controls are surprisingly good and I haven’t had any issues with the game quitting or freezing. I played two seasons and not one issue. I’m happy with the purchase and wanted to share for those that may be on the fence. It’s a cute game that is narrative driven. The days are long and you can make plenty of gold with gems in the mine. All and all is a good game and worth $15.
  • Crashes

    I love Harvest Moon and was excited to play a mobile version, but it just crashes too often. I save it as often as I can but it will crash when you leave the mines and at random other times when going between locations. It’s very frustrating. It’s great when it’s working but they need to get the bugs fixed.
  • Crashes a lot and not enough things to do

    The game is okay. However it crashes when coming out of the mines which means everything I did is not saved. There are not a lot of marriage candidates, only about three male and female which doesn’t give a lot of choices. The main thing you do is rebuild buildings and bridges, aside from that there is not much to the main story line. The use of the tools is awkward, you have to drag it out to choose the area to till or water which is easily messed up. Overall not worth the price tag
  • Love Harvest Moon franchise… it’s like they left this in the dirt

    It seems like there was zero support or beta testing for this. It’s a gem in the rough and I mean rough. Go a day or two or three without saving and it will punish you by closing the app on you and making you repeat everything.

    There could have easily been a huge profit corner for Natsume and tabot and whoever else from this game that would justify supporting it. In game purchases for decorating, landscaping whatever, so many options and you wouldn’t even need to be pay to win… we already bought the app after all. But doesn’t matter. Milk the name and leave your fans behind. Leaves a terrible taste in my mouth for these developers
  • Fun but needs an update

    I really enjoy this game and I play it almost everyday and I’ve come to work around the bugs in the game and having it glitch out while mining, fishing, or doing really basically anything you spend some time on to make money, but i definitely think they should update the game and fix the problems that everyone seems to be having, but I definitely still do love the game bugs or not just would be better fixed 🤣
  • DO NOT BUY

    If I could rate this 0 stars I would. The game isn’t even fully developed (there are many missing parts) and the amount of crashes are insane! I got this game so I didn’t have to use my sisters Nintendo Switch but honestly this sucked. It kept kicking me out of the game, not saving my progress, and it kept glitching like crazy. Tbh I regret buying this and I want my money back. I’ve contacted the developer and got no response. I would say just buy this on a different device like a PlayStation or a Nintendo Switch.
  • Sad

    I was sooo looking forward to getting this game recently on my iPhone. I used to play endlessly on my Nintendo Wii some years back. After downloading and watching a few videos on how to play in my phone I was ready. It was just like playing in my Wii❤️. But the heartache came as I was kicked off more then 10 times while completing requests and collecting ores and crops. It was frustrating having to do some days over and over again and saving every time I sleep cause I worry about getting kicked off. I got kicked off 3x today and wondered if I’ll ever get back on?? Regretting the download atm. 😔
  • To the App developers:

    You need to fix how long it takes for the screen to load (that black screen takes WAY too long) and the bug that quits out of the game every time you exit the mine. Other than that it’s a fun game. But I’m super disappointed in the quality. Cmon $15 for these rookie technological fails? I’ll be waiting for an update soon. Until then I advise no one to waste their money on this game in my honest opinion. No offense
