one of my absolute favorites

This is def my favorite game on Apple Arcade by far, the animation is amazing and so cozy, there’s a lot of stuff to do so it takes a min to finish the game. I’ve noticed there is some open ended things in the game like the booth during the summer festival, I’m hoping there’s an update very soon as I just completed everything you can get in the game excluding all the different medals which would take forever. I really love this game though and I highly recommend getting it, it also helped me learn more about Japanese culture which I really enjoyed. Thank you so much to the creators, I’m looking forward to the next update or maybe something new that y’all create!

Amazing

If you like farm games where you don’t just have to grow crops all day this is one of those farm games you can rebuild the old town have a kitten and a puppy also there is no adds😎

One suggestion

Amazing game but one addition that I would want is the Zen Buddhism part of Japanese culture. Zen Buddhism played a part in Japanese culture during the Edo Period and has a connection with manga history
especially in the earliest parts. Some parts of manga also show this connection in panels with an empty street, or panels that focus on not having not much detail.

Game Softlocked Me Into Not Being Able To Complete Turtle Hatching

Japan Rural is a great game - don’t get me wrong, I’ve been playing since 2023, reached top 1% and it has been enjoyable the full way through. I was recently trying to complete the turtle egg hatching again, after last time reaching the beach , taking photos of the mother turtle and then immediately ran home to bed, ignorant of the fact that I had to stay up late. I then ran back down to the beach the following morning as fast as humanly possible, to find no turtle eggs, and disappointed me decided to wait until the next virtual in game year to try again. When I finally went back to the beach at night, I found no mother turtle, nothing to take photos of, which I took no notice of because I had done it before so why would I. But then, after waiting weeks to get back to late April and doing all the process again, I am sad to say that I cannot 100% Japan Rural if the turtle eggs do not appear. Love this game, but devs please fix this.
