A Horror/Harvest Moon Style game, Gleaner Heights

[CeliriaRose]

I think it's becoming clear with my recomendations what genre I'm into :P

There's another Harvest Moon style game coming out soon called Gleaner Heights. It's a more old school style farming game which is a kind of Harvest Moon meets Horror game with some dark tones mixed in to the happy little towns characters and history complete with multiple endings and the option of whether you want to get involved in the darker stuff or not (I don't know if it's possible to fully avoid it or not).

You can play a female character and there are 5 female romance options though the dev prefaced that some romance options are initialy locked off such as through marriage and you will need to "change their lives in creative ways if you want them for you".

Well if they're trying to do something more than the standard gift-a-day formula HM/SV uses I'm all for that.

I don't know the specifics of how it's set up but I believe Gleaner Heights does have gift giving though it does have events as well.

There is another game though called Verdant Skies which just came out that I can confirm has no real gift giving if that's what you are looking for. The relationships there are done more in a visual novel style where it's done via talking to them and dialouge choices.

Aw man now I want a full-on horror themed farming game where you're raising ghosts and stuff.

Now I want a harvest moon style game where you are the ghosts and stuff :D

Imagine a farming village full of ghosts. The narrative could be about a weird limbo where people who aren't ready to move on end up in this afterlife town and occaisionally based on your choices and interactions some might move on while others might show up.

This game looks interesting, I might give it a buy once the next Steam sale comes around.
