    This game is amazing! I haven’t made it very far into the game yet, but so far the gameplay and graphics are excellent. I’ve been playing Harvest Moon games since “Back to Nature” first came out for the PS1, and “Pioneers of Olive Town” definitely has the feel of an original HM game too. 11/10 would recommend.

    Great game if you're a fan of Animal Crossing, Stardew Valley, or Harvest Moon.

    A very addicting game, plays a little different than what I’m used to for story of seasons, but that in no way, is a bad thing. There is always a task or goal to be accomplished, and the work you put into the game is noticeable. It has replay value, if you choose to do so. Very enjoyable.

    I started playing this game because of a trial period that was offered, and was hooked, so I got the physical copy so the family could share. I don’t even like the outdoors, but this game makes me want to live in a house by some water where I care for my animals and grow stuff.

    If you love farming sim games.. then be sure to get this. So much to do in this quaint town with fun activities to do spread across your calendar. Grow crops, produce other items with crops to sell. Harvest minerals in the caves, fishing, breeding animals and so much more.

    Not like old harvest moon games

    It's definitely not the same as the old school Harvest Moon games. There's a lot of bugs in the camera settings and the maker system is a bit ridiculous. The characters also feel way more generic and unfortunately, just did not live up to the hype.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Wonderful game, takes me back to the old Harvest Moon days on PS1. Plenty to do, easy to pick up and play for a few minutes or a few hours. If you remember the early days of Harvest Moon you will enjoy this game.

    Pre release review had me skeptical. However so far I am thoroughly enjoying this game and the only thing I would review poorly is the machines should do more than one item at a time. I recommend exploring where you feel you want it is a wonderful experience

    A solid farming game. It has some rough spots but the devs are actively working to improve based on player feedback so I'm optimistic about its trajectory. Even as is it is solid and enjoyable, it just has some rough bits.
