Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns is a DS and 3DS game that follows the same systems as previous Harvest Moon games (Farming, Raising a Family etc) – but also comes with new features such as being able to choose what town you join to even raising (adorable) Alpacas. Whilst there is no release date as of yet for the Nintendo 3DS version, Natsume have announced that they will be releasing the Nintendo DS version of the game on the 20th of September, a week before they release the new Rune Factory on the PS3 and Wii.
For those who are interested in the details of this game – here is a description of the storyline as taken from the press release:
Konohana and Bluebell villages were once the friendliest of neighbors. Then a huge dispute erupted between them over, of all things, food! Both towns were certain that their cooking was the best in the world. This feud has transformed these happy neighbors into bitter rivals.
As a new farmer to the area, players choose which village to live in. Will it be Eastern-styled Konohana with its abundant fields of crops, or the animal-loving, European-styled Bluebell? Players will pick a home, build a thriving farm, and compete in a huge variety of festivals. If they develop their skills enough, and they might even find a way to bring these two towns together once again!
That is not all, depending on where you order from, if you pre-order the game from participating retailers (They mention Gamestop as an example), you will be able to recieve a cute Alpaca plush, which you can see from the image in this article.
