A cartoony farming simulator.

Again...

Sorry, but despite watching others play this when I was younger and getting captivated at the time, I just couldn't understand it when I finally played it years later.

Once more, these simulation games have to captivate me with their core loop since they are massive time investments. Sadly, this one failed, at least for now.

The gimmick here is collecting these musical notes for these fairies, or...something, but executing specific actions.

The fact that you can only go into this specific ore cave when it is winter due to the water freezing over a lake surrounding it to get better loot than normal and lots more money as a result is cool though.

However, starting up can be difficult since the game doesn't fully explain its systems and such, which could be the point, but it turned me off.

Again, I went to college and don't have an emulator and I didn't fully understand nor commit, so this is as high as I could put it.

If you like these types of games or Harvest Moon in general, then this is for you, but I'm not interested as of now.
