About
The special edition of Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home invites you to escape the urban chaos and journey back to the idyllic rural village of Alba. Here, you’ll find freshly caught fish, home-grown produce, and friendly neighbors in a tranquil countryside setting.
Once prosperous, Alba Village is facing tough times. An older population and people moving away to larger cities have taken a toll on its vitality. However, with your assistance, this peaceful village could regain its former glory, becoming lively and thriving once more. Nestled amidst breathtaking natural scenery, Alba has all the potential to attract tourists and new residents-if you’re ready for an exciting transformation!
In the game titled “Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home Special Edition“, you won’t be on your own as you strive to rejuvenate Alba. Doc Jr., who has established his lab within the village, is diligently working on inventions that will aid you in your journey. To travel more swiftly across Alba’s vast landscape, try out the Hoverbike 5000 – a stylish hover scooter designed for easy navigation. If cleaning your barn feels like a chore, the Cleanmeister Autovac can lend a hand! Exclusive to the Special Edition, Doc Jr.’s innovative technology is here to streamline and simplify rural life for you.
Connect with an enchanting group of bachelors and bachelorettes, some familiar and others new, in the game Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos. Reunite with an old friend or develop a bond with one of the novel characters – like Ella, an artist seeking inspiration, or Dr. Nikolai, investigating the medicinal qualities of the Harvest Goddess Spring. Whether you’re pursuing romantic relationships or long-lasting friendships, the decision is yours.
Nurture crops, look after livestock, fish, mine, and collect resources to accumulate Happiness, the essential component for expanding Alba Village. Engage in vibrant celebrations, join local competitions, and collaborate in rejuvenating the rural core.
