Publisher and developer Natsume has shared the first details and screenshots for Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home, their new spinoff for smartphone devices.
“In Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home, players are tasked with going back home to where it all started to help their childhood village get back on track,” shared Hiro Maekawa, President and CEO of Natsume. “Mobile gamers will love this robust new standalone farming experience where they can help their beloved village flourish with new tourists, new residents, new crops and more, all without any in-app purchases.”
Here’s a rundown on the new details, plus the new screenshots:
In Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home it’s time to head back to your roots and leave the city life for your childhood village of Alba, where the freshest fish and tastiest veggies are grown and caught by the local farmers and anglers.
However, with its population getting older and younger villagers leaving for the big city, Alba Village has seen better days, so can you help turn it from a village on the decline to one of prosperity? With its beautiful surroundings, Alba definitely has the potential, but can you bring tourists and even new residents to this sprawling green village?
Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home is the biggest Harvest Moon game ever on mobile! In addition, you can woo four different bachelors and four different bachelorettes, and marry whomever your heart desires. Reunite with your childhood friend and other familiar faces to help put Alba on the map!
Harvest crops, take care of animals, fish, mine, and more. Collect and gather Happiness to grow the village and get new residents, while competing and taking part in various contests and festivals!
Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home is in development for iOS and Android and will launch sometime in August of this year.
