Overview
Description

Step into the shoes of a fourth‑grader named Boku as he spends August 1st, 1975 on his uncle and aunt's farm in Hokkaido. Explore the countryside, make friends with his cousin Midori, and enjoy simple, seasonal activities that capture the essence of a Japanese summer. The game blends gentle adventure with a life‑simulation sandbox, letting players fish, catch insects, tend crops, and discover hidden treasures while reliving a timeless childhood experience.

Take over a neglected farm and transform it into a thriving homestead. Plant crops, raise livestock, and interact with villagers across four seasons to meet the three‑year deadline. Beyond farming, you’ll attend festivals, build relationships, and expand your property, all while experiencing a charming story of legacy and community.
