Item Description

Most farming games freeze time so you can tend your crops forever. Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life asks a bigger question: what happens over a whole lifetime on the farm? You arrive in Forget-Me-Not Valley to take over a run-down farm, and with help from Takakura, an old friend of your father who hands you a house, seeds and your first cow, you begin a story that unfolds across years, marriage and parenthood.

The game is told in up to six chapters, and each one moves the clock forward. By the end of the first you must choose a wife from the valley’s bachelorettes, among them Celia, Muffy and Nami, and soon a son arrives who grows up before your eyes. The way you spend your days shapes the path he chooses as an adult, so the routines of planting, harvesting and caring for animals take on real meaning. You age too, and the villagers around you change as the seasons and years pass.

Forget-Me-Not Valley is a small, quiet place with a strong sense of community. Carter and Flora run an archaeological dig site where you can unearth relics, a traveling merchant buys your goods, and neighbors drop in and out of your life with their own stories. Developed by Marvelous Interactive and published here by Natsume, it was a slower, more reflective Harvest Moon than the series had seen, and players and critics responded: GameSpot named it the best GameCube game of March 2004. It can even connect with the Game Boy Advance title Friends of Mineral Town.

A Wonderful Life proved popular enough to earn a female-protagonist follow-up, Another Wonderful Life, a PlayStation 2 Special Edition and, two decades later, a full remake under the Story of Seasons name. The GameCube original is where it began, a cozy, bittersweet farming life that predates Stardew Valley by more than a decade and still feels distinct within the genre.
