Please add control support!!!!😩😩😩 it’s hard to navigate at times, control support would be amazing!! Other than that love the game!!!
Brings me back to my childhood. Just like all the other harvest moons I used to play when I was younger. The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because the game doesn’t load the saved gameplay between my iPad and my I phone. For example, I started the game on my iPad playing for hours and when I was taking a break at work I tried to load the same saved game on my I phone and it would not register that I had a history on my account and would only let me start a new game. Please fix or add this feature! Thank you!
I’m happy they brought harvest moon to your phone, it’s a super cute game and I like the playing style!!
I love the game definitely addicted amazing for a game for mobile I just wish I could use my PS5 controller cause using my hands to swipe all over gets tiring after while.
I’ve been keeping track of this game since I heard it was in development. There have been a lot of interesting changes new to the Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons universes in this game like the townspeople not liking you and keeping track of the soil quality without fertilizer. If you are a patient and goal-oriented player for these types of games, you might like this game.
However, there are also a few cons:
I agree with some of the reviewers here that there should be controller integration if possible. There is a mode that gives you a virtual joystick for movement, which is handy if you’re playing on a phone, but this game really shines on an M-series iPad!
The other reason controller integration might be important is because I’ve noticed the deeper you get into the game, the harder the controls are to use—especially the default settings. While I really appreciate the repeated actions feature, it backfires in places like the mine and once you level up enough at the farm, the grid for repeated actions is too large for the zoom on the screen and it is hard to walk around your field without accidentally plowing something. As for the mine, a similar issue to the fields happens, but on the default controller mode, your character just stands there and you can’t move when rocks are coming. (If you change it to the “virtual joystick mode” in the mine, your character can move when rocks are coming.) It’s most troubling in the mine, however, because it can be tricky with the way touch works to distinguish between wanting to mine in a spot versus moving to that spot. The mining may be the most frustrating part of the game to me so far.
Another major issue is that there does not seem to be a way to cancel actions. It’s hard to stop getting my character to go through the mines Super-Smash-Bros-power-up-style with their hammer. I’m wondering if double-tapping on the screen could be an option for canceling actions in a future update.
Another issue that could be affecting the controller difficulty is the zoom. Since the game is sensitive to touch for travel, I think the zoom-out range needs to be increased by about 50% so that users can move away from fields a little easier if needed.
I have also run into a couple of glitches while fishing. On Spring 27, right after getting the restaurant what it needed to unlock, I went fishing in the upper-right hand side of the ocean. When I hooked a fish and it started to move, my character fell through the ground and into the “sky,” unable to get out. Luckily, once midnight came, the day ended and they ended up back at the house. What a surreal experience!
Another glitch I see is that depending on where you fish, the fish won’t come out of the water and be fished up even though they’re on the edge of the water. It seems to happen when the fish was hooked somewhat close to the edge anyway.
There is also an issue in the barn sometimes, particularly with my cow and chicken, where the animals block each other from eating. The cow gets in the way of the chicken and the chicken only wants to go one route to the food. It would be nice to have an update to the path where the blocked animal either goes through the other one to its destination after a certain amount of time or chooses an alternate path. (Although, it is fun to think of telling someone, “Sorry I’m late, I had a cow traffic jam in my barn.”)
Last, which is more of a “user logic” concern/preference: what is up with the horse and juice? It seems odd to me that making a glass of orange juice requires milk when it only required an orange in Winds of Anthos and One World. I feel like that wasn’t intentional, but I could be wrong. As for the horse, it doesn’t want to leave the pasture, but I thought I saw pictures of it outside the pasture in previews. Am I just not at a high enough level yet? I hope so, because it takes three in-game hours to travel all the way across town and I bought that horse hoping to speed things up. Having it just for a contest seems pointless.
In conclusion, I think this is a good game, it just has a few user-friendliness flaws with controls and glitches. I think if the game goes through a few updates to address these issues, it would be a lot nicer. I think it still has the most to offer compared to the other mobile-released Harvest Moon games.
Please add more Back Ground Music

he game dialog box is garbled, this game experience is very bad, please developers quickly fix Chinese, Japanese, other languages did not try, please update as soon as possible!
No controller support. No decorating your house just turn on & off things in set determined spots. Small world. Lackluster design.. The fishing is just as bad as stardew if not worse... Stardew is cheaper u get a bigger house more decorating, bigger world better features then this 18$ overpriced lackluster game. Natsume just made a lackluster game do to the names fame, they knew they could get away with less. I won't buy another of there games they haven't changed. Stardew is on iOS it's cheaper get that not this lazy game.
I put my expectations too much. The graphic is kinda okay but the content, in my opinion it can be improve. Like how they need us to do the quest, it requires so much ingredients and moreover most of them are expensive. Like the crops, they need many crops that cost 30+ gold but after we complete it, we gain something that doesnt match the costs. I spent a day playing and my gold was only like 1k the highest, i cant invest to my barn because of the high demand crops from the npc and the amount of stamina are not enough for me to farming for money. I spent a day just watering my crops and go to sleep. I been playing harvest moon since a kid but this one is almost boring.
This game feels very unfinished
