Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful Life tells your story. As a young female whose father just died (tragic, eh?), you come to live on a farm that belonged to Takakura, a close and evidently very generous friend of his. This farm has the square footage of about a quarter of the entire town, and Takakura just up and gives it to you. For free. Along with the biggest real estate holding in the Valley (as in “Forget-Me-Not,” not Californian), you inherit a cow, a pasture, some mediocre fields, and a stray dog that just happens to be passing by at your time of arrival. And now all of these things are your responsibility, and you have to figure out everything, like what crops to plant and when to milk your cows and who to marry. One day you will even have a child to take care of..yeah.

If you’re thinking you might have heard this story before, maybe it’s because you’ve played Harvest Moon 64. Or Harvest Moon Game Boy Color. Or Harvest Moon: Back to Nature, Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town, or … well, I think you get my point. It’s a successful franchise, and nobody can really blame Natsume for pumping out another one. And if you’ve enjoyed the other Harvest Moon games, games pc free download, there’s no reason you won’t like this one as well, unless you don’t like role-playing as a girl for some reason. Are you some sort of misogynist? Well, are you?! I didn’t think so.
