It is a simulation role-playing video game developed by Neverland for the Nintendo DS console. Rune Factory is a make-believe farm simulation game and a spin-off of the Harvest/moon story of seasons video game series. The harvest moon series is going on for ten years now, and it's still loved by many. The premise of harvest moon is that you play as a character and are given land that you have to turn into a farm.

Mist shelters him in the hope that he would work on her farm. From here, the game begins.
The player can work on the farm, explore the cave or fish, capture monsters and many more. For the story to progress, the player should open new shelters and clear it by beating the boss.
