HARVESTELLA is a unique life simulation and farming RPG developed by Square Enix, set in a vibrant world where players can blend the tranquility of farming with exciting combat mechanics. The game takes place in a fantasy realm that experiences a cyclical transition between seasons, including the mysterious and perilous season known as "Quietus," which disrupts the usual flow of life. Players assume the role of a customizable protagonist who wakes up with no memory in this beautifully crafted world, and the storyline unfolds as they explore the bond between nature and their own existence.
In HARVESTELLA, farming is a central element, allowing players to cultivate crops, raise animals, and interact with various characters throughout the game. The seasons affect what can be grown and how players adapt to each phase of the cycle; for example, players must prepare for the challenges that arise during Quietus. Beyond farming, the game features real-time combat where players can engage with a host of fantastical creatures and adversaries. Players can also form bonds with NPCs, develop friendships, and uncover the deeper mysteries of the world and its seasons, ultimately shaping the narrative through their choices. HARVESTELLA combines traditional agricultural gameplay with a rich storyline and engaging combat, providing a refreshing take on the life simulation genre.
