Summary

Rune Factory 4 marks the return of the popular Harvest Moon spinoff that combines farming with dungeon adventuring. For the first time in the series, the player can select to play as a male or female hero, and potential suitors of either gender are also available in order to pursue love, marriage, and possibly a child. As the newly-appointed prince or princess, you can fulfill your royal duties of protecting the town from invaders, or take a more rural approach to governing by raising your own fruits and vegetables and helping townsfolk. Should some dungeon adventuring be on the days itinerary, you can select from the castles vast armament of swords, spears, and staffs along with magic for battle against dangerous foes, or even bring along a companion or friendly monster to aid you during your travels.

My second Rune Factory game. My first being RF3 for the DS. I love the Rune Factory games. They just encapsulate the majority of what I want game. From farming, to life sim elements, to relationships, combat, and exploration it is all a pretty good experience. I would say of the three Rune Factory games I've played at the time of me writing this, (the three being 3, 4, and 5), RF4 is the My favorite and probably the best of them. RF3 was great and where I first fell in love with the game. However, 4 has the best pacing of the day/night cycle, longer story with more content, and just overall more polished. 5 is great, but it feels more bare compared to 4.

I love Eune Factory 4 and it will always be considered a gem in my library.
