A simple remaster that lacks many features from the previously released sequels but still constitutes one of the most idyllic farming and life-sim games out there.
+ attractive player housing in a picturesque village that always feels lived-in
+ Raven (and many other fairly one-dimensional but easily lovable characters)
+ straightforward relationship and plot progression without some frustrating issues like in RF4 & RF5
+ satisfying leveling of all skills as is usual in the series
+ neat bonus content ("Newlywed Mode" and "Another Episode") to serve as a playthrough send-off
+/- comparatively basic crafting without hidden variables
- simplistic and very short main story
- small world essentially made up of the main hub and four "dungeons"
- often painful quality of life (tiny inventory initially, only two active skills, no crafting cost display, etc.)
