Harvestella is a lite action-RPG, farming-life simulation. Its an enjoyable game. There are time management elements, combat is simple as well as farming, story comes along as side quests.

Very time consuming game if you don't want to rush through. Visuals are lovely and the different quests keep the player interested. Some quests are difficult to complete because there isnt really a log to keep track of where certain objects were previously obtained or where to obtain them. Navigation can be a pain but doable. The farming also isnt too time consuming allowing you to enjoy other jewels of the game. Game is fun with beautiful visuals and you may wind up passing too much time by!

This a great game. Mixing rpg elements with farming sim turns out to be a good formula. I think this game would be surprisingly a lot of people's favorite.

This game is great, while the farming aspect is pretty simplistic the stories and the characters are written very well. It makes you want to do all side quests. Almost every side quest and character are memorable. Though towards the end the theme of the story gets rather dark and depressing, reminiscent of Endwalker in FFXIV. Makes me wonder if some of the people at SQ Enix are doing okay.

Square-Enix’s Marketing Got This One Wrong

Did you first hear about Harvestella in what was jokingly dubbed the “Farming” Nintendo Direct? Did you first hear about it from Square-Enix’s own twitter account before release, where all they talked about was farming, farming, life sim, farming? Well, forget all that. We don’t need it. I don’t blame people who picked up this game at/around release and were confused about what they got because Harvestella was done SUCH a disservice by it’s marketing. Harvestella is less Rune Factory, more that part in Nier where you’re forced to farm to progress the game, but the farming is less central to plot progression (but you will need to farm if you want that sweet, sweet gold and you do). It’s a wonderful JRPG experience highlighted by it’s characters, story, world, and it’s phenomenal OST (which I keep checking every day to see if it’s available in the US, it’s not TT_TT). It’s combat mechanics are a little clunky, and the job system can get a little redundant after a while, but I had a stellar time playing regardless. Cannot recommend enough giving this one a shot if you overlooked it before. You won’t regret it.

I never played a simulator game and love Square games so I figured why not? I was surprised at the job classes and how much of the typical Square game elements were incorporated into the farming and cooking, not sure why. It felt like a cool way to dip into this genre of gaming.

This game is a great way to relax and enjoy some me time! I have over 80 hours in this game already and am still enjoying it. The systems are not too deep, but still feel rewarding. The game has a great pace, interesting characters, and great stories behind each of them. Even the “fetch quests” have stories behind them that make them seem less tedious. I have played other farm games, but this has been my favorite so far. I like the graphic style of the game and the soundtrack is awesome! I would recommend to anyone who likes story and wants a “chill” rpg farming game, to buy this.

I didn’t expect to get hooked o this game like I did! Was a little slow starting off, but I love how open the world is and the freedom to do what you want, whether it’s follow quests, farm or explore!
