The game follows along the same lines as the rest of the Story of Seasons series, in which the player takes on the role of a farmer whose only goal in the game is to make a profit from the farm he runs including producing crops and raising livestock. Harvest Moon: Hero of Leaf Valley features the same protagonist of Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland.

Story

The player travels to Leaf Valley/Sugar Village to pick up his grandfather's things after hearing that he has died. He learns that the village will be turned into an amusement park, and encounters three "Harvest sprites" and the Harvest Goddess, who ask him to stay on the farm and help them. The player then decides to take over his grandfather's farm and work hard to turn the village around. By choosing different paths, you can find up to 16 ways to save the village.[2]

The game came out to positive reviews. IGN rated the game a 7.5 saying "the controls can be frustrating at times" but "I had a hard time putting down Harvest Moon: Hero of Leaf Valley."[4] It currently holds a score of 74/100 on Metacritic.[3]
