Natsume has released a bit more information on Rune Factory with some box art, screenshots and two new trailers. I haven't played a Harvest Moon game in quite some time so this may be interesting to pick up. I know that dancing sheep has basically sold it and sealed the deal for me.

You awaken to find yourself in an unfamiliar village with no memory of who you are or how you arrived. Mist, a beautiful young woman comes to your aid and helps you start to build a life for yourself…on a farm. Till the land, grow crops, raise animals, catch fish and battle monsters! Battling against fierce beasts is very important for your survival, but making friends with them is essential for your farm life. Build skills and learn magic as you save your neighbors and uncover the secrets of your forgotten past…

* Befriend wandering monsters to help with your farm, each with their own special abilities!
* Upgrade your skills as you use and create hundreds of items and tools!
* Communicate and exchange items via Wi-Fi!
* Grow crops, make friends and fall in love!
