  • Really fun game similar to Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon
Edition: Standard Edition
Loving this game so far, have about 50 hours into it. Here's the key concepts: - You can plant crops/farm (like in Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon) - Instead of barns for animals, you build Monster Barns for your Monsters. You don't buy the monsters at the store though, the monsters are roaming around the open world. You can fight them and bring their health down a bit, and feed them/give them items to befriend them. If you're getting only a skull icon over their head, it means you dont have space in your monster barn (or dont have a barn yet). If you get a heart, followed by a skull, it means it's not friendly enough just yet and wants you to give it more stuff. Once you do, the hearts blink and it becomes your tamed monster. - With monsters in your barn, you can assign them to do field work. This basically consists of planting seeds and watering your crops for you. You can have 3 monsters on 1 field, and its really nice to not have to go around watering everything. - You can bring monsters with you to help you explore the world and fight other monsters. You can also talk to people and request they explore with you (press L & R at the same time, then ask them to go adventuring). There can be a maximum of 4 in your party (you +combo of 3 people/monsters). - You can craft weapons and armor, you can cook a wide range of foods, you can make your own medicine, etc. - You can upgrade your weapons and armor up to 10 times at your forge. You can place items you buy, such as the forge or cooking table, etc., just about anywhere, even outside -- you aren't limited to your own house. The whole world is yours! Helpful tips: 1) Fast travel everywhere. 2 minutes real-time = 1hour in game. 2) Press the MINUS key on your controller, then X , to fast travel to your bed in your house. Then save the game frequently, especially if you're low on health. It gets expensive very quickly to be healed at the clinic should you faint. 3) Always travel with monsters/people if you're able to, the help they provide (including causing Aggro so you are not solely taking damage) is worth it. 4) You can temporarily befriend a monster in the wild by holding ZL, then releasing it once its charged. The monster you hit with that magic constricting move, has a chance of swapping to your team for 24 hours. You can also feed them/give them items at that point to try and keep them permanently. 5) Keep plenty of lumber and bricks on hand at all times, you need a ton of them to build everything. 6) As soon as you run out of RP, STOP doing field work or you'll burn through your HP fast. Instead, Fast Travel to the Blue Moon Inn, and go to the spa. It does not move time forward, and you become fully healed (HP and RP). Then you can fast travel back to your field, without having to waste food. Overall, I think this game is a better version of Stardew Valley with better graphics. With that said, I do have my switch on a dock with a fan to help cool it down because the Switch does get hot (I have the OLED version). Even with the fan, there is in-game stuttering, most notable when you fast travel. It clears up after 3 or 4 seconds, and I haven't noticed any stuttering during battles. There will hopefully be a patch released to address this, but it's completely playable and hasn't froze on me or crashed so I'm okay with it. ... show more

  • Give it a chance!!
Edition: Standard Edition
There’s more to this game than just the janky town graphics and blocky character movement. Yes, the landscape is kind of ugly and the town feels empty and the loading times are unreasonably long. BUTTT there is so much depth to this game, from complicated farming to lovable characters to really fun combat and cool looking monsters. The story is well thought out and there’s so much to do, it’s addicting. I’m glad I gave this game a chance, although I’m sad that it couldn’t be the masterpiece it could have been. ... show more

  • You get to farm on the backs of dragons.
Edition: Standard Edition
I'm a little late in reviewing this but looking back I had a great time with this game and wouldn't be surprised if I went back to it later. The combat was fun, the story was funny, the characters were charming, and the crafting and farming never left me bored. The game packs all the mechanics of Rune Factory 4 into a much prettier 3d world. The loading times and occasional frame drops were definitely manageable and more than worth it for the improvement in character design and graphics. I also loved the farm dragons to death. Best feature I've ever seen in a farm sim. ... show more

  • Great RPG and Farming Simulator! (Daughter's Review)
Edition: Standard Edition
I've had Rune Factory 5 for about two weeks now. You could spend hours playing Rune Factory 5. No matter what you do you still progress in some kind of way. You can play at your own pace, and the calm town music makes my dad tired. When I first played Rune Factory 5 I thought I was about to get into a anime. It would be interesting if there really was a show based off of it. The battling is not difficult to learn, yet it's still a fun aspect to the game. If you do find yourself venturing through the forest, just beware those woolies show no mercy. ... show more

  • Really fun entry to the series!
Edition: Standard Edition
I personally really love the game so far! There's some flaws but overall, I really do enjoy it. There's bonus content if you played RF4, and my copy of the game came with this really cute small handbook of the game, it was a really pleasant surprise. The framerate does decrease once in a while but it doesn't bother me too much. So far, the game is enjoyable and I really do enjoy the graphics and models. The characters are very likeable! Overall, I really do enjoy the game and recommend it to anyone who's a fan of the series! ... show more
