    Why does it look different then other harvest moon games?

      When XSEED Games picked up Story of Seasons in 2014 that was the next game in the series that the west knew as “Harvest Moon” (the Japanese series name being “Bokujō Monogatari”). However, Natsume owns the name “Harvest Moon” and started creating its own games with that name, this game being part of Natsume’s in-house series.
