It's about finding a girl and making her fall in love with you through rude mechanics and routines. It's about making friends and petty grudges and taking part in events and strolling through towns. Harvest Moon is a series that's about sinking yourself into a nice world as you would a warm bath, and building something. Some of you might even have opened a comment box and are typing a rude word into it right now. Those of you who did play Steambot might call bulls*** on that one. And if I was going to compare Steambot to anything in order to make people sorry they didn't buy this, it'd be Harvest Moon. It's also lorry, a taxi, a stage, whatever you need. For starters, your robot is not just used for fighting. By now no-one's more allergic to this particular brand of immorally predictable Japanese storytelling than me. Steambot Chronicles, aka Bumpy Trot, aka That Weird PS2 Mech Game Set In The Twenties Where You Play A Harmonica Or Something, is the story of an amnesiac boy who finds a big robot, but don't hold that against it. Not many people played this one, so here's the cheat sheet.
