STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town

STORY OF SEASONS: Pioneers of Olive Town

I will say this~ As a die-hard HM weeb

With only 40hrs put into this game and only on “Autumn” Xseed has done a fine job with keeping the Harvest Moon franchise alive and ongoing. I love that they keep some of the same elements from the earlier games.

Pros: The graphics are beautiful and the characters are way better than Xseeds “SOS” where everyone looks the same. You have more personality with these new characters and they’re all so bubbly and cheerful and have their own unique dialogues. I do hope in the future that MORE Harvest Moon games will be coming out on the pc as I lack a newer Switch. Thanks for catering to the PC master race Xseed. Natsume has lost me in its very weak and un-immersive graphics. The animals are adorable everything about this game is amazingly fun and there’s so much to do the repetitiveness does not get “boring” or “old” It feels fresh every time you do something even if it is the same thing over and over again. All the villagers literally like everything so finding an item to give them daily is not hard. You even have CUSTOMIZATION to your main character. This is by far the best I have seen and ever played from Harvest moon when it comes to that. The outfits are so pretty too and don’t even get me started with the animations when farming. They’re on the peak.

As much as it pains me, this is probably the first Story of Seasons title that I have to honestly say I cannot recommend.

There are some cute things about it, and some of the heart of the series is there, buried way way down in there, but honestly this feels like Story of Seasons is trying too hard to take My Time at Portia elements and falling so flat on it’s face that it tumbles right over a cliff.

First and foremost the balancing in the game is atrocious. Day 2 of Winter Year 1 and I had already beat the town development “main” story. Winter 23 of Year 1 and I was married to the bachelor of my choice. The only major story milestone left for me is to have the kid (which I have read ahead is an adoption thing regardless of hetero marriage status or not and that moderately irks me). After that it’s just little completionism, which at the rate I smashed through them in year 1 I don’t expect will take longer than the last Year 3 achievement.

Adventure Farm VR

I think this is a possibility at fun… Unfortunately, there’s just too many game breaking bugs at this time. Just as an example, getting stuck in a wall, the game’s controls glitching to constantly show in multiples wherever you go (think your entire screen lighting up in blue curving teleport lines from every place you’ve walked in the last 30 seconds), and unfortunately for a friend of mine… Falling through the floor. We’ve tried to pick this up a few times, since purchased, but can’t get further than a few minutes in without something breaking. I hope the team continues to work on this and it isn’t forgotten or given up.

Lifeflame Compendium

Lifeflame Compendium

Lifeflame Compendium is a WarBreedFarm RPG. These 3 main aspects of the game co-exist in an equilibrium that revolves around Lifeflame.

Lifeflame is a resource that enables entities to live, and is therefore the main driver for all creatures that want to stay alive. Players and NPCs alike gain Lifeflame by eating and drinking, herbivores start by foraging while carnivores must rely on hunting.

Both plants and animals age and then breed, passing on their traits to their descendants and giving way for the next generation.

With time, farming becomes the most efficient way to produce food, and together with crafting, civilization begins to develop to more advanced stages.

Prosperity, however, always precedes times of war, especially when resources grow plenty on one side and scarce on the other, giving rise to great clashes of swords and magic.

You will come to life onto this interconnected world, learn how to harness its resources and thrive in moments of peace, war, passion, mystery, adventure and romance!

The Good Life

The Good Life

Just to play through and do the main quest… eh it’s alright. Quirky but it’s fine, just play it then go do another game and forget it ever existed.

To get invested in and mess around? Hell no lol.

From release this was a janky mess of game-breakers and softlocks. The biggest of which was at least patched out (storage).

The content of the game is entirely just “go get this” with everything a convoluted web of ingredients upon ingredients of which everything is a rare drop except meat. Little to no emphasis nor encouragement when it comes being a photographer. Even with thousands of followers, keeping up with the trends on Flamingo barely gives you a few hundred a week so it’s not worth the effort when you could be running around hitting rocks or getting your daily time trial allowance.

Kickstarter backer here, so my review shows as a CD Key review, and will not count towards the overall review score.

That out of the way…

recommending with some serious caveats.

It’s a SWERY game, but not a ‘typical" SWERY game.

Weird, messy, a bit sloppy, a more Eastern POV and stereotype of life in the UK and the West.

Kb/m controls are quite clunky. Controller is better, if the game and Steam recognize your controller (PS4/PS5 recommended- the game seems to reuse towork properly with my XBox One controller).

It’s a decent puzzle game. I found the non-nude version to be more of a challenge. As the borders of each scene are less defined.

But it’s a pity that the achievements don’t count towards your total and perfect games.

Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin

Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin

Came here as a gamer… left as a professional rice farmer degree

The realistic, in depth elements of rice farming combined with honing fighting skills plus surprising character revelations and development make Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin a magnificent game. Beside its beautiful story‚ Sakuna’s personal growth is a pleasure to watch. Her reason for living is tested to the limit. The balanced emphasis on farming and fighting provides a great variety of tasks to undertake, providing dozens of hours of fun.

I’ll leave a TLDR at the bottom.

I was hesitant yet curious coming into Sakuna. A game that’s half side-scroller beat’m up, and half in-depth rice farming is something unique and interesting to me.

We are introduced to Sakuna, a daughter of harvest goddesss Toyohana and war god Takeribi. Sakuna is a goddess who resides in the capital indulging herself on all sorts of expensive luxuries until one day she meets a certain group of humans and gets involved in an unfortunate event that has her and the group exiled to an isle of demons called Hinoe. It is on this isle that Sakuna will grow rice, hunt demons, and come to learn more about the humans that were exiled along with her.

100 hidden birds 2

100 hidden birds 2

Fun little games but there are two birds that are virtually impossible to find without looking on line. One is the size of two beaks of the drawn birds that I just happened to click on in error and one is behind a girder and looks NOTHING like a bird.

Real player with 2.2 hrs in game

By far the hardest of the hidden object games I’ve played, but in a good way. The birds are easy to identify but blend in really well. The art is great, as usual, and the music has that right mix of catchy but not distracting. By and large, a very strong entry in the field.

Atomicrops

Atomicrops

Note: Despite my hours I have seen quite a bit of this game already. This is because I played a lot of the Limited Thyme Preview, so I would say that I have to say here is just. Atomicrops: Stardew Meets Gungeon But Falls a Bit ShortSoundtrack…………………………………………………………………………..⭐⭐⭐⭐/☆ (4/5)- This game has an awesome soundtrack that fits into its theme quite nicely. It’s quirky, lively, and a bit silly, which suits the game well. Only complaint is that there’s few songs. Graphics…………………………………………………………………………………⭐⭐⭐/☆☆ (3.5/5)- Good graphics for sure, but not as good as EtGs or Stardews. Boss sprites and character portraits look quite detailed though. Atmosphere/Mood…………………………………………………………………⭐⭐⭐⭐/☆ (4/5)- A cultative combination of the music, bosses, crop animations, and more, the game accomplishes it’s mood quite well. Gameplay……………………………………………………………………………..⭐⭐⭐/☆☆ (3/5)- The game is a bit repetitive, and doesn’t have all the best permanent content. More on that later. Potential Time Investment…………………………………………………………..⭐⭐⭐/☆☆ (3/5)- Due to the lack of permanent content, and an issue with keeping players completely engaged, time invested will likely be a bit shorter than other roguelites. Price……………………………………………………………………………….⭐⭐⭐/☆☆ (3.5/5)- The price is probably a bit too high for this game. It is best to buy it on sale. Lacking of Bugs…………………………………………………………………⭐⭐⭐⭐/☆ (4.5/5)- I have found only one bug playing this game, though it’s hard to say if it’s a bug or an intentional feature. Overall Star Verdict*…………………………………………………………….🌟🌟🌟/☆☆ (25.5/35)- At its core, the game is a lot about management, where two interesting concepts have been combined in a way that is a bit short of being perfect. *Overall Star Verdict is calculated by finding the mean of the seven different categories; that is, adding them all up and dividing them by the amount (7) to calculate the Verdict. Generally, the initial Verdict will be rounded up for the final one.A lot of people want to say that this game is “Stardew meets Gungeon.” In part that is true, but definitely not completely. And not necessarily for the better. This game is a bit short of being a perfect combination of those games. Farming is definitely a major portion of this game, and for the most part it’s not bad. The player has to till the ground, plant the seeds, and water them, simple stuff. But the game takes it a bit further than that. Plants can be fertilized to increase their value. Fertilizer is dropped from enemies, tying in the farming with the combat a bit. In addition, if crops are

! planted in a 2x2 square and fertilized, they will merge into one large crop. These large crops are worth considerable more than their smaller counterparts. This is a fitting mechanic because it encourages players to think about how they arrange their crops, instead of just mindlessly planting them everywhere. The action is a bit short of being up there with the greats. Lots of the time it’s somewhat repetitive, and unfortunately this doesn’t just apply to the farming aspect. There is little enemy variety, and several of the enemies are just enhanced versions of weaker ones. However, some of the enemies that there are have interesting attack patterns, which spice things up a bit. This issue also applies to the seasons as well. There’s four main seasons, and one final season. Each main season lasts three days, and features one boss at the very end. Every night the player will face a siege of mutant animals trying to eat the player’s crops. The difficulty of this siege ramps up nicely as the game progresses, and rarely feels unfair. In fact, at the beginning, it is actually quite easy. Very few enemies appear, and those that do have very little health. In addition, during the first year enemy bullets move insanely slow. But more on that later. Unfortunately, there is only one boss per season, which makes the fights feel a bit less unique. Once the player actually manages through the first four seasons they will go into the

! Nuclear Winter. This season is different from any other. It is entirely at night, and features only a single day. During this the player will be fighting off against the

! Corpse-a-copia, a giant head composed of various fruits and vegetables. This boss fight is actually very unique, because unlike most enemies it cannot be damaged through usual means. Instead, the player must

! farm and harvest crops to damage it.. This boss fight is executed in a way that perfectly combines both the fighting and farming aspects of the game, and is definitely one of the highlights. I mentioned how easy the first year of the game is. While that is still true, that does change later on. After beating the game once in the current year the player will be able to access the next year. There is not much difference between years, other than difficulty. As the years increase so do enemy bullet speeds, enemy attack speeds, enemy health, etc. Think of it as the Summoning Stones from UnderMine. There are some rewards for completing higher years, though they may not be enough to keep players engaged. The only rewards are

! some new characters and bachelors/bachelorettes. The marriage portion of this game isn’t exactly what it might seem like at first. It centers around roses, a rare crop that have a few, valuable uses, including dating. Dating one of the characters really just comes down to what they are offering at the time for the player’s roses. This makes it feel less like a relationship and more like a bartering system. In addition, besides from character portraits, none of the characters are interesting in the slightest. They have very little personality or story of any kind. This game has a beast of a soundtrack. The songs capture the feeling very well in the majority of the scenarios. My personal favorite is the boss theme of Summer. The graphics in this game are good too. Some sprites look a bit flat, especially with character and enemy sprites. This is heavily contradicted by the greatly detailed nature of the crops and boss sprites. There are some features that the game is missing and feels a bit unfinished because of it. Keep in mind these are from what I know and have experienced. First of all, there seems to be no almanac of any sort to keep track of the different crops. This makes it difficult to know which crops are more valuable than others, and as such makes it hard to prioritize which ones to grow. In addition, there’s no way to keep track of all the different items either, unless the player actively sees them or has them on them. Second, the game does not have an on-screen map. There is one in the inventory menu, but it’s quite small and not that helpful. Because of this, it’s easy to get lost at the start of the game. There’s also some areas that are just empty, with nothing in them at all. This is very apparent towards the ends of each biome. There’s also very few achievements in this game, and I don’t really see why that is. Hopefully more will be added in the future. So, for the most part, I do enjoy this game a fair bit. However, if you want to play a true roguelite, go play Enter the Gungeon or UnderMine. If you’re coming here purely for the farming, go play Stardew Valley instead. This game is not the best example of either of those two genres.

Target Audience: Roguelite fans wanting something a bit different, and want something to put a lot of time in.

Summary:

Atomicrops is one of those games that’s the definition of a solid purchase. You’re not going to feel bad about the 15 dollars spent here as you will get a fun return on investment here, something that you’ll play for hours at a time (hell even with leaving the game on, notice the hours played here). Will the game be something that will revolutionize the genre or will stick with you 10-15 years down the road? Not right now no, I do believe that is possible with tweaks here and there it could be, but it’s a game that has a couple of “yeah, but”s about it that won’t put it in the elite. That definitely doesn’t mean it’s not worth the money.
