'''''Story of Seasons''''', formerly called '''''[[Harvest Moon]]''''', is a series of [[Simulation Game|Simulation Games]] based on farming developed by Marvelous Entertainment and translated by Natsume in North America and Rising Star Games in Europe. The original game was released for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super NES]] in 1995, and since then there have been over twenty ''Harvest Moon'' titles released for a variety of different consoles. ([[The Other Wiki]] has [[w:List of Story of Seasons video games|a list]].) The plot line, such as it is, is much the same for almost every game: the protagonist, a young man ([[Distaff Counterpart|or woman]]) just starting life on his or her own, inherits or buys a farm. Sadly, its previous owner was unable to keep up with chores on the farm, leaving it in a significantly dilapidated state... and now it's up to you to fix it!
Gameplay is generally fairly simple. The player must clear the fields, plant crops, raise livestock like cows, sheep, and chickens, care for pets like horses and dogs, and gather materials from the countryside to help improve his/her house or sell for extra cash. However, the "business" aspects of play are not nearly the full scope of the game; the social aspect of the series is one of its biggest draws.

** Alice in Hero of Leaf Valley. So much so that when you give her a birthday present she goes so far as to use some classic tsundere lines.

* [[The Ugly Guy's Hot Daughter|The Ugly Guy's Cute Daughter]]: Gannon and Eliza from ''Island Of Happiness''
* [[Unexpected Gameplay Change]]: Several entire ''games'' do this; ''Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon'' and ''Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon'' are both [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]], though the entire rest of the series are in realistic modern day settings, barring some various [[Nature Spirit|fairies, imps, and sprites]], not to mention ''Puzzle De Harvest Moon'', a not very well received Puzzle Game -- not of the Match Three subgenre, despite what anyone who hasn't played it will tell you.
* [[Unwanted Harem]]: In A wonderful Life it's pretty easy to unintentionally get Muffy and Celia to fall for you, without even talking to them sometimes.
