Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home will launch for iOS and Android on August 23, publisher Natsume and developer appci announced.
“In Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home, players are tasked with making everyone happy in their hometown,” said Natsume president and CEO Hiro Maekawa in a press release. “By socializing, gift giving, selling crops, and completing requests, you’ll build bonds with your neighbors and increase the happiness of the town, all while hitting milestones of your own, like caring for your first cow, falling in love, and starting a family. As a standalone mobile app, players can progress their story at their own pace, wherever and whenever they want!”
Here is an overview of the game, via Natsume:
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!
