I was thinking something similar. I could tell from what I played that Stardew was a good game, but found it boring for two reasons: the western artstyle, and the lack of fantasy elements. Just a bit too mundane for my tastes.

Does this game fix that?

Yes this game has fantasy, like 8 races you can play as. Magic spells for combat and farming/mining.

3 towns. The human town you start in. The Elven town and the Demon town. You will get a farm in each location that has specialized crops that grow only in those locations.

it is like stardew valley in that it is a harvest moon clone. However this game does a lot of things stardew valley doesn't. both games are very good in my opinion. as far as the farming aspect goes, stardew valley was better, and this is significantly closer to harvest moon in that aspect, than it is to stardew valley. that is to be expected though, as stardew valley's focus was more geared to farming and being a life sim, where as sun haven is more focused on the rpg side of things. i would say sun haven excels at almost all of stardew valleys flaws, but falls short on everything stardew valley succeeded at. I think a far better way to look at their relationship is that they are two games derived from the same source material rather, than sun haven being a rip off of stardew valley. after all the games do have things in common, but playing through them, they have far less commonalities than they do differences, and both feel very unique from one another (to the extent that i would not recommend sun haven to someone who wanted another stardew valley, and vice versa).

So, as someone who was looking for a good farming sim, but found Stardew too mundane, would I like this? It's to Rune Factory what Stardew was to Harvest Moon?

Actually, my sister is a big Rune Factory fangirl, I should ask her advice.

So I can only give you my opinion on it. As i havent played very many farming sims.

I enjoy stardew valley a lot. However, it is very mundane (as you mentioned) and i like things with more excitement. I tend to play stardew valley when im tired, and want to do something mind numbing, that requires very little focus or reaction time. My game of choice is more akin to vermintide 2, battlefield, and other fast paced games that have a lot of excitement and require fast reaction times. My wife and I typically struggle to find middle ground, as she likes slow relaxing games (deep rock galactic is a fast paced, exciting in her book). Sun haven is a good middle ground. if I were to rate it on a scale of 10 for being exciting, i would give it a 4/10, with stardew valley being a 1/10, legend of zelda ocarina of time and fire emblem games being a 6/10, battlefield 5 being a 9/10, and doom being 10/10.

its a fun game, and i would recommend it to my friends if they were looking for a story game with a decent life sim aspect.

as to answer your question if i would recommend it as a farming sim, probably not. in my opinion its farming aspects are a little dull. dont get me wrong, sun haven has an extensive amount of things you can craft and farm. however, its farming aspect, like harvest moon's, feels tedious to me (which was the main reason i liked stardew valley, as for some reason it didnt feel tedious to farm lol). I play it for a combination of the questing, relationship sim aspects, and the combat (which isnt as good as say crosscode, but is still pretty fun).

I know this doesnt necessarily answer your question in full, but i hope it does help give you some insight as to whether or not the game may be worth looking into further.
