If you grew up in the 2000s, chances are you knew this game under a very different name, Harvest Moon: Back to Nature. And honestly? story of seasons: friends of mineral town feels like coming home after a long trip. It’s definitely an upgrade. polished visuals, smoother gameplay, modern UI. but the heart of the game? Still exactly the same. Booting it up again feels like stepping into a memory. For me, this isnt just farming, mining, or wooing villagers. It’s a reminder of simpler days. when my siblings and I huddled around the TV, passing the controller, laughing and enjoying every minute with our late mother. This game carries those moments, those feelings, like a time capsule. And yeah, sure, this game has been remade, ported, re-released more times than I can count. from game boy, psp, ps4/ps5 to NS and PC. You d think wed be tired of buying the same game over and over. But here we are, still playing it, still getting sucked into the same cycle of crops, festivals, and mineral town charm. in the end, story of seasons friends of mineral town isnt just a remake. Its a reminder that some games dont need flashy gimmicks or massive open worlds to be meaningful. sometimes, the best games are the ones that brings you back, not just to a town, but to a time in your life you never want to forget.

A good remake for a PS1 game. The only complaints that I have is they removed some events because it's too dark (Cliff leaving the village or Kai conflicts with the villagers) and all of rivals bachelor/bachelorette story progression. In the original game if none of them marry the MC, they will marry each other which was neat.

This is my first entry on farming games. Played on GBA and gifted weeds to popuri. Such memories hold this game together. Would recommend for nostalgia enjoyers. I hope this gets a remastered with modern gen graphics and QOL that could also allow the player to travel into a city and flex his/her crops to everyone.

You are 10, sitting on the living room's floor, holding a ps1 controller and looking at Popuri through your tiny tv, thinking "wow she's so cute..." Girl, you are gay.
