A Relaxing Game
As I was pondering what I should blog about this time, my mind started to wander. It slipped to the land of video games. That got me thinking of one of my favorite games to play when I need to relax. Well, really it is a game series, not just one certain game. The series is called Harvest Moon and it focuses on building a life as a farmer. I know it does not sound very interesting, but trust me, you get sucked in rather easily. Almost every Harvest Moon game starts off with your character moving into a small ranch in a little town. You then meet one of the main characters who teaches you the basics of farming. After the first few days, you are free to do as you wish and build your life. Of course, there usually is a main goal of the game, usually dealing with causing the town to grow by shipping many different types of items. Now, for those that want to keep the farming aspect but want more, then the subseries called Rune Factory is for you. It is basically a Harvest Moon game with the added benefit of fighting and/or befriending monsters. Rune Factory games also have a more set storyline with multiple dungeons and bosses.

Revenes Dark all I could say that the game sound pretty awesome. I think farming game could really relax a person that is stressed or something. Learning how to farm sounds kind of cool I bet the game does relax you a lot. I think the game really sound like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteI like games that require you to build things, in fact I could care less about the fighting parts of games. My favorite games are the civilizations--I have had ever, Sims Medieval, is fun because you can play different heroes while you are building a town, depending on which hero is currently on an active quest.
ReplyDeleteYou didn't say what platform the game is for..is it PC, xbox, or maybe online? I would like to check it out sometime.
Ok quick question why do guys like to play video games? I mean what is so great about them? All you do is sit there moving things around on a remote control. I don't see the point. But I guess it’s a guy thing because my brothers really like video games and so does Colum and Gavin and you and Dennis apparently.
