The Harvest Moon series has been around for some time, first debuting on the Super Nintendo in 1996 and making appearances on most consoles and handhelds in some form since then. It’s the grandaddy of all those “task-and-wait” style games — you’re looking at Farmville‘s ancestry here. Revolving around farming, repetitive tasks and marrying a generically-characterised partner, Harvest Moon has long been the king of the farm simulator field (albeit with minimal competition).
Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns, which originally released on Nintendo DS in 2010, is making a comeback on Nintendo 3DS.
Everyone's always talking about Microsoft or Sony winning the console wars. No one notices the alpacas. At least, no one notices them until it's too late.
The original farming simulator that started the crop growing craze makes a return to handheld for a new generation with its latest incarnation for the Nintendo 3DS. Marvelous Interactive’s Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns 3D incorporates the same cutesy charm that captivated a generation but this time, adds a dual village twist.
