Summary
The game that led to us getting Stardew Valley. Just saying that you will immediately know what you are going to get and the game doesn’t disappoint. It’s a trendsetter and for good reason, from its solid storytelling to rewarding farm and town work, Rune Factory on the Nintendo Switch is every bit as good as the previous version and a must-own, the number of hours plays you will get from this are criminal.
