The Ushi No Tane websites specialize in information, FAQs, and guides about the Nintendo console versions of the Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, and Legend of the River King video games. These game genres are created and published in Japan by Marvelous (JP). In other regions, you'll find Natsume, XSeed Games/Marvelous (USA), Marvelous (EU), and Rising Star involved in the series' release.

The latest version of the mainstream farming series that have been released in various regions of the world are:

The latest version of River King, in all regions of the world, is River King: Mystic Valley (JP 2007, NA 2008, EU 2009).

Since 2000, Ushi no Tane has been run by a grouchy old lady who happens to be fond of video game agriculture along with two feline helpers: Intern Captain Bootu and Intern Hondo Mewnaka. The website is not officially affiliated, sponsored, endorsed, or employed by the developers of Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, or River King. This is simply a fan site.

Latest Farming Video Game News


LDC in EU and LoH Gorgan Wedding | Posted at 02:15 PM 21 September 2018
Happy Farm'n Friday! Now that we've finally received multiple zucchinis, we've been trying to find some good recipes to cook them up. The Zucchini Enchiladas aren't too bad, though we add spaghetti sauce to the zucchini filling to make it a bit more flavorful. This week we have Zucchini-crust Pizza on the dinner menu. I'm hoping that recipe will use up the extra large zucchini that was hidden under the plant, growing unnoticed for too long. Those zucchini seem to appear no matter how close you keep an eye on the plant. I've a friend who let her zucchini grow for a bit too long. She swears that they were small one day and then giant sized the next. Several two-foot long zucchini would make a lot of zucchini bread.

Little Dragons Cafe in EU

The digital version of Little Dragons Cafe is available for purchase and download from the Playstation Store and the Nintendo Switch eShop, but the physical version appears to be delayed by a week until the 28th. The game will display its language in English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish. Rising Star Games does not have a Collector's Edition available, so no bonus plushie for EU, sorry.

Light of Hope Gorgan Events

I was finally able to grow masses of Sunny Red flowers in my second girl file in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope (you've to sell 30 of them to unlock the seeds), so now I'm becoming best buddies with the Underworld King in all his gargantuan glory. Huzzah! Here are the rest of his romance events, the Blue Feather proposal, and the actual wedding. If you missed it, the first love event is on the Ushi no Tane Youtube Channel:

Gorgan Love Event #2

Gorgan Love Event #3

Gorgan Love Event #4

Gorgan Marriage Proposal

Gorgan Wedding

Post-wedding, Gorgan remains in the Underworld and does not move into your farm house. I don't know yet about pregnancy/childbirth yet, as there are still more romance videos to record with other marriage candidates on this particular save file. It would be great if there were more than three save files, yea?

Natsume Hints at Harvest Moon Stuff

In a Twitter tweet this morning, CeeCee from Natsume encourages fans to keep an eye out next week for some Harvest Moon news and deals. Ooh how mysterious! Until next time! - Cher (Not going to make Zucchini Patties. Got stuck eating those as a kid. Nope nope nope!)
