It's the only time they ever mention a Harvest Goddess in this game, and afterwards the topic is never brought up.

Aborted Arc: There's an event in the game you can come across where the sprites lament that the Harvest Goddess is asleep, but maybe if they find nice things she will wake up one day.

On September 13th 2022, Marvelous announced a remake of A Wonderful Life to be featured on the Nintendo Switch, set to release in Japan in January of 2023, then internationally the following Summer. The game was given a sequel in 2006 as Harvest Moon DS, which can be seen as a mix between this game and Friends of Mineral Town. Unlike every previous game, time does pass inside buildings, characters age, marriage is a necessity to continue playing, there are no festivals, none of the previous characters made appearances, and the main character doesn't wear a hat. The game is something of a black sheep for the series, as it's the first to subvert many of the series' ancient constants.

Each season is 10 days long, and most crops can only be harvested in one season. A marriage candidate must be chosen by the end of year one, or the game will end, though the marriage candidate with the highest affection will propose to you at the end of the year if you didn't get around to doing it. It's also the first game to realistically imply your cows mating, though Takakura seems to try to hide this fact from you, which is odd considering your character's old enough to have their own children.Įach game has three eligible marriage candidates, except for the Special Edition, which has four. It's somewhat darker in tone than the rest of the series, themes of adultery, divorce and loneliness are approached quite seriously, though nothing 'child-inappropriate' is explicitly referenced.

An Updated Re-release of the first game exists as a PS2 port, with an additional bachelorette and the ability to have a daughter, though this version has slightly worse graphics, a halved framerate, and loading screens when the original had none.
