Another great addition to the Story of Seasons (formerly Harvest Moon) series.
Let me begin with a little introduction of the plot:
You start off as a girl or boy who decides to become an independent farmer. The reason: Due to your father's job, your family is moving around too often, and you want to settle down. Although your father disapproves, he still sends you to his younger brother to teach you how to become a successful farmer. That's when your real adventure begins.
Unlike the previous Story of Seasons games, you can choose personality types that can benefit you (such as animal lover, fisher, sports enthusiast, tycoon, charmer), depending on what you pick. This is not only helpful, but also enjoyable. There are also part time jobs that improve your relationship with the townsfolk and can help you earn some more money. This keeps you busy throughout the game, although the jobs are quite repetitive, to be honest. At least it's easier to increase friendship levels compared to previous games, and you can also have access to more items.
There is also an option that features a multiplayer mode utilizing both local (for nearby friends) and internet connection. This allows you to receive items, some of them are quite rare.
The festivals haven't changed much in terms of content, but the depiction and presentation are different. The basic procedures such as shipping, remodeling, furniture, growing crops and raising livestock are generally just about the same way. One significant addition in this section is the diversity of pets.
Ultimately, the most interesting feature of the game are the three different towns. Each town has its own unique traditions, design and people. They are all equally beautiful in their own way, and the illustration aspect of the game is amazing. The cheerful background music also fits the themes of the towns. Even the weather has been taken into consideration, and depending in which town or area you are, it can be different.
Overall, as a long time "Harvest Moon" (now Story of Seasons) fan, I can definitely say that this game has so far been a great and refreshing experience. Whether you are a "Seedling" to the franchise or a "Veteran", this game will surely make you daydream about having your own little farm in real life!

Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns - Nintendo 3DS
Trio of Towns is a fresh entry in the ‘Bokujo Monogatari' series, a long-standing farming/life simulation franchise. After creating a customized character, players can live out a new life by cultivating their favorite fruits and vegetables while expanding and filling their farm with their choice of animals. Players can explore three different towns, each with their own regional crops, animals and flavor, in search of new ways to grow his or her farm and friendships. Players can also connect to one another, locally or via internet, to chat and trade useful items.
Extensive character and farm customization
After creating unique farmers based on each player’s preference of gender, hair style, skin tone and facial features, players can work and play their way through the three different towns in search of new ways to customize their home, crops and animals. Players can also bring home all kinds of decorations for their property, which provide various benefits, and can generate in-game income through all kinds of facilities, tools and business plans.
Three towns, one world
As players acquire rare crops, decorations, and furniture in and around the three towns, they can connect with other players to trade them. They can even take a crack at enhancing the items they trade by placing them on a magic pedestal, within the multiplayer world, and trying their luck.
A heart-throbbing romance heats up the peaceful farm life: A variety of eligible bachelors and bachelorettes from all walks of life inhabit the three towns. Over time, players can build relationships with them through conversations, gifts, festivals, and special events. Every bachelor or bachelorette has his or her own story, and if the player sees that story through, they can propose, get married, and start a family together.
