Touhou Farming ~ Minoriko’s Homestead Harvest

EARLY ACCESS – CHECK DISCUSSIONS FOR INFO BEFORE BUYING

This is an unofficial fan work produced under the Touhou Project fan content guidelines. Touhou Project is the property of Team Shanghai Alice / ZUN.

You are MINORIKO AKI, Symbol of Abundance, one of the eight million gods! The field for harvest gods is particularly competitive, so the amount of faith you’ve been able to scrape together has been modest at best. However, your time to shine is fast approaching!

Gensokyo is growing! As more gods and youkai take refuge from the outside world in this sealed-off fantasy land, more humans are needed to sustain them; thus, many big-name youkai are taking an extended vacation to give the Human Village some breathing room to grow.

This is a big opportunity to increase your popularity! Conspiring with the Moriya Shrine, you aim to help the village expand by supplying it with as many healthy crops as your divine, dirty little hands can cultivate. Time to get to work!

Minoriko’s Homestead Harvest is a traditional farm sim set against the colorful backdrop of Touhou Project’s Gensokyo. Rather than trying to split the difference between casual players and those that enjoy a time management challenge, it offers two gameplay modes:

• In Casual Mode, you have as much time each day as you like, and you can play at your own pace to complete the game by meeting certain story objectives.

• In Serious Mode, each day has a time limit, and you have two in-game years to reach your goal of gathering enough faith through Minoriko’s farming operation. Some additional hurdles to make resource management more robust are added as well.

There’s more to planning out your farm than just aesthetics! You can’t walk through your crops after they’ve sprouted, so you’ll need to plan their placement with care, but your tools can upgrade their area of effect in many ways to suit whatever layout you please. You can build terraces to grow rice and other aquatic crops, as well as lay out an irrigation system through hoses and sprinklers with a variety of patterns.  Players that enjoy a light engineering challenge will find themselves at home here.

Various side sources of income such as fishing and mining are available, but if you want some real excitement, head into Youkai Mountain’s adventure zones for some shooting action and loot!

Minoriko needs YOUR help to be Gensokyo’s #1 harvest god! If you’re interested in a new farm sim with a fun setting, check out Minoriko’s Homestead Harvest today!
