Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon (イノセントライフ　～新牧場物語～ Innocent Life: Shin Bokujō Monogatari?), also known as Harvest Moon: Innocent Life, is a farming Simulation video game for the PlayStation Portable (PSP). It is a spin-off of the Story of Seasons series of games, and was released on April 27, 2006 in Japan and on May 15, 2007 in North America.

A special edition of the game was released for the PlayStation 2 (PS2) called Innocent Life: A Futuristic Harvest Moon (Special Edition) (新牧場物語：ピュア　イノセントライフ Shin Bokujō Monogatari: Pure Innocent Life?) on March 29, 2007 in Japan and February 12, 2008 in North America. Apart from minor changes, the PS2 version is essentially a port of the original.[3]

Gameplay

The game takes place on the relic-filled Heartflame Island which can be explored by walking or riding on a buggy. Players have the ability to explore the island's ruins and even visit a volcano. All these areas have their own terrain and is said to resemble a tropical paradise but in order to explore all over the island the player must collect jewels and break the seal.

Aside from growing plants and raising livestock, you also have weekly requests from Volcano Town for help with a job or two (upon going to your Sunday appointments). Usually you would get some items or new tools for thanks.

Development

The game features a new art style that steps away from the traditional style of the previous Harvest Moon games. It focus more on solving a main storyline like traditional RPGs, rather than concentrating on farm works. The concept used in Innocent Life would be continued on the Rune Factory series, which also involved ARPG battles. However, the removal of the marriage system in this installment also departs from any previous or later game in the Harvest Moon series except for Harvest Moon GB, Harvest Moon 2 GBC, and Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland

Reception

Reviews of the title were mixed, with reviews ranging from 85% to 40%.[4] IGN rated the game at 6.5, or "passable", saying that the story develops slowly and the gameplay strays too far from Harvest Moon's traditional farming focus.[5]
