    Harvestella is ambitious as hell and punches way above what I suspect was a limited budget. Yes, I wish Quietus would feel like more of a threat during the game or that time management offered more of a sense of urgency than it does, but this game is going to linger in my mind. It is undoubtedly one of my favourite games of the year and gets bonus points for running perfectly on Steam Deck!

    A more than successful evolution of the agricultural management genre with RPG touches, real-time combat and a highly accomplished technical section. Something simple in all its sections but very fun.

    Harvestella may have unsightly character models and rote combat, but it offers a satisfying blend of farming sim and action RPG that scratches the itches it's supposed to.

    Harvestella is far more than the sum of its unexceptional parts. Almost every aspect of it just does the job it’s supposed to do, but it all slots together so well that it becomes a compulsively enjoyable experience. If you’re looking for a meaty JRPG to gobble up in palatable chunks over the ever-longer nights, you absolutely cannot go wrong with this one.

    Was hoping this would be a decent rpg life sim but as it currently stands, its one for the bargain bin. Combat is too repetitive and boring.Was hoping this would be a decent rpg life sim but as it currently stands, its one for the bargain bin. Combat is too repetitive and boring. The graphics are decent but the lack of production values really shows. There are some game breaking bugs which could erase your savefile. Sound wise the game is ok. The worst part of the game however is the poor main character design and bad writing. You can usually forgive a game for its shortcomings if it has a cool main character and good writing. Unfortunately, this has neither.… Full Review »

    Another game that suffers a lot from being made for the Nintendo gaming tablet. That's the main reason for my bad rating.

    Not much to say    Another game that suffers a lot from being made for the Nintendo gaming tablet. That's the main reason for my bad rating.

    Not much to say about it. It's a JRPG farming sim mix. The game is "ok".

    Price is a bit high. 30$ would be more appropriate.    … Full Review »
