Go back to the roots of Harvest Moon in the latest installment of the series! Inspired by the old-school gameplay of the very first games, Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories will bring players a sense of nostalgia, along with exciting gameplay twists.

Tasked with the job of revitalizing a farm, players will need to befriend the villagers in town to unlock the titular “Seeds of Memories”! Seeds can be unlocked in many ways, such as giving a villager their favorite item, catching a giant fish, or by raising their first cow. Players will need to be up to the challenge of collecting all of the Seeds of Memories!

Old favorites return in the animal department with cows, sheep, and chickens, along with a horse to ride, and a dog to keep as a pet! Farmers will also have a new pet to take care of, but it isn’t what they’d expect… It’s a bobcat! The bobcat starts out wild, but as players befriend the animal, can they convince the bobcat to become their loyal friend?

Featuring cooking, fishing, foraging, and mining, players will need to upgrade their tools to find the highest-quality items. Players will also be able to participate in contests and festivals like the Cooking Contest and Starry Night Festival! Woo one of the ten marriage candidates – 5 bachelors and 5 bachelorettes – and find that special someone to make their farming life complete!

Natsume is the developer.

"This next Harvest Moon will take the series back to its roots." - Harvest Moon devs for every other game this past decade.

Skepticism aside, I'll be watching closely. I'm such a sucker that I'm likely to buy it either way, unless it looks Lost Valley tier awful.

I have never played any Harvest Moon installment. I've always wanted to, but there was always something else out that I wanted more.

Huge fan of the series, since the first on SNES. Can't wait for the first WiiU game finally.

Friends of Mineral Town I think was the best one I have played so far.
That one and HM 64 are my personal favourites. Shame Natsume can't/won't release the latter on VC... The one people want more than the others.
