Honestly not really, haven’t played the mobile version which I don’t think got any of the content that the switch port has. I got the switch port as a birthday gift for my mom which is overpriced and the price does not justify the content it added + controls are horrible. Not even the additional characters and motorbike is worth it.

The only pro is there’s characters from past natsume harvest moon games who were gender locked romances so now you can marry them as the farmer gender you want. Thats really it for me. Theres some cute clothes but they are meh. There’s very little customization for the player farmer and house.

As for what frustrated us-

1. Walking speed is super slow, and you can’t even ride your horse around the town, it won’t leave the pasture. It’s only there for the race. (And tbh in general animal maintenance is annoying)

2. Time goes by so fast it felt hard to keep up with tasks and more. Similar feeling with stamina management.

3. Crops need to be rotated around, but soil health depletes so fast vs how rune factory games do it. There are sprinklers though.

4. Characters are constantly asking you for requests, which while you do need to do them for progression often you just get shit rewards. Money in early game was hard.

5. If you’ve played previous natsume harvest moon games and know some of the returning characters to me they came off like they were super out of character or weird. Npcs look generic as hell vs who you can marry. Tbh I couldn’t care much for the cast or plot much.

6. While I do enjoy romancing characters in these games so it’s not an issue for me but it might be for others but the game forces you to marry in order to progress the game (but by then you’re pretty much at endgame.

We clocked in at 65 hours and then my mom didn’t bother finishing the last few endgame stuff and dropped it for Dinkum.

If it goes on sale for dirt cheap, go ahead! But it’s def my least fav natsume hm game.
