I can definitely also recommend SDV! There are some problems with HM, though - basically, the name originally was used for Marvelous' Bokujou Monogatari series, but when they started localizing the games through their subsidiary XSEED, they changed the name to Story of Seasons, while Natsume, who originally localized the games in NA, kept the name Harvest Moon and now uses it for their own games. While One World looks interesting, I don't think any of the previous "Natsume Moon" games were very well-received, and honestly, I wouldn't recommend the SoS games currently available on the Switch, either. Maybe keep an eye out for SoS: Pioneers of Olive Town when it comes out, though.

On that note, the Rune Factory series is also similar, if you like those games - it's basically farming with fantasy elements, so you also go out and fight monsters, explore dungeons, etc. RF4 was super popular and got a deluxe port for the Switch with some added content, and RF5 should be coming out in 2021.

Littlewood is awesome. It's kind of a more relaxing version of stardew valley. I play it on PC, but it should be coming to the switch next year.

- Rune Factory 4 is a fantasy farming simulator where you can also fight monsters! Dividing your time between both tasks can sound daunting, but the game is very flexible in how you progress. There’s also a sequel coming to the Switch this year!

- Cattails let’s you hunt and explore as a wild house cat! You can join one of three factions in order to gain new territory. The graphics are basic, but there’s a lot of fun to be had here.
