Also this game I bought as a birthday gift and have to say that I was influenced by my childhood with this purchase. Since my childhood, I and my sister have played almost every game of the Harvest Moon series and then when I found this part of the Rune Factory- series as PS3 game, I immediately realized that it's just right. The birthday girl (my sister) has also been very pleased with it and played it. The game has both funny aspects (SPOILER: N character is from the outset in the game: a strange ausssehenden priest who has adopted many children :) and mysterious aspects and the music is just as good as the mugshots of the individual characters. Can only recommend this game also.
