Harvest Moon: Light Of Hope Special Edition is the newest installment in the popular farming simulation game series developed by Natsume Inc. and published by Rising Star Games. It was originally released for PC in 2017 and has now made its way to the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 as a special edition game with updated features and content.
The Story
The game starts with the player taking on the role of a young man or woman who has just lost everything in a natural disaster. With nothing left, the character gets on a journey to start a new life in a place called Beacon Town. Here, the character will meet a lighthouse keeper who tells them that the town’s lighthouse, which is also a vital source of power, has been destroyed. This becomes the main objective of the game – to restore the lighthouse and bring back hope to the town.
Gameplay
Harvest Moon: Light Of Hope Special Edition follows the classic gameplay of the Harvest Moon series. The player is required to plant and harvest crops, raise livestock, and sell products for profit. However, this special edition game introduces a new feature called co-op play which allows players to work together in building their farm and restoring the town. This adds a new level of interaction and makes the game more enjoyable for those who want to play with friends or family.
The game also has new marriage candidates, a new character named Soleil, and a special bulldozer feature that makes it easier to clear land for farming. Additionally, players can also customize their character’s appearance and decorate their farm with different items for a more personalized experience.
Graphics and Music
The original version of Harvest Moon: Light Of Hope was known for its beautiful hand-drawn graphics, and the special edition game takes it a step further with high-definition graphics and improved character designs. The game also comes with a new music track composed by Hiroko Onose, known for her work in “No More Heroes” and “Little King’s Story”. The soundtrack perfectly complements the serene atmosphere of the game and adds to the overall immersive experience.
