Simulation video game...

Rune Factory 5 allows you to do field work at a farm, harvest crops, and sell them to earn money. You can also gather minerals and other materials to forge and upgrade your weapons and tools.

The game also features other facilities, each with different functions, and a village where you can interact with other NPCs. Among the characters are a selection of bachelors and bachelorettes, who you can form intimate relationships with!

...but with RPG Elements

Additionally, you can also roam the area outside your farm and the village to fight monsters. Choose across eight types of weapons that fits your playstyle and take on dangerous monsters and even bosses! These monsters may also drop materials that you can use in forging.
