the first harvest moon game is very special. it's very different from nearly every other game. there's no real UI on screen, you can only hold one item at a time, and you can only hold two tools. also the days are not very long at all. but nights never end. but during the night you can't ship your items. all these limitations cause you to play a very specific way that i just love. you try your best to ship as many items as you can during the day, and maybe you can finish your chores during the night time. but! then you need to give presents to a girl you like during the day too. all these little questions of how to manage your schedule due to having no real inventory is beautiful to me.
