Harvest Life follows in the footsteps of games like Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley more than it does FarmVille and other popular online farming games. It is a farming experience that sends you on adventures of heroism and romance while you manage your small town farm.
Everything about Harvest Life is full of charm and wonder. You have a life unlike anything you can find today, and it leaves you in love and wanting to experience the whole world. With the amount of features and gameplay available, experiencing all of that is possible.
The farming itself is somewhat straightforward and easy to understand. Farming in games generally is, though. You are going to have to plant and manage your crops, making sure they remain in good condition. As this game has more depth than a lot of others, you are going to have to do more than wait.
Things like weather conditions and local villagers will determine what you plant. You have to plant based on what is right and what the people want. If you do not, you may not be able to make any money from the crops you plant and harvest.
If you do everything right, you should have no trouble keeping your farm going. It is all about keeping an eye on it and making sure nothing gets in the way. There are things that can, and you want to manage them before they lead to destruction.
Alongside your crops, you will have to take care of your farm animals. Keep them happy and keep them healthy so that you have more products to sell. Once you harvest everything, you can go to the farm store and begin selling it all.
Farming is not the only aspect of the game. The in depth and addictive farming part of the game is the core of it, but there is so much more going on. You also have a great chance at love with the man or woman of your dreams. You can find someone at the local village and begin romancing them, building a connection. If that turns into love, you can turn that into marriage. Get married and start a life while managing your farm and the life here at the village.

Life at the village is not all sunshine and happiness, sadly. You have dangers lurking all around you, including wild animals and a missing dog. You will have to manage this all as you continue to build and improve and profit. It is a lot of work, but the excitement and reward are worth it.
As you play and improve, you are going to level up and build your farm. There is a lot of growth to be found here, all waiting for you. Continue to improve and watch as your farm becomes unbeatable.
Everything about Harvest Life will keep you wanting to play more. It is a charming, lovely game that takes the farming genre and adds more to it. You have a lot of different gameplay here and so much more to explore than most other farming games manage.
