How Does Romance Work in Harvestella?

As you venture through the lands of Harvestella, you’ll come across quite a few different NPCs, and you can even begin to build friendships with them. Every time you meet and interact with a character for the first time, you will begin to build a bond between you and that character. Now, this doesn’t always mean that you are building a romantic relationship with the character right away, as it always starts with a friendship.

As you carry on with the progression of the story, you’ll find that your bond with each character grows whenever you interact with them. The more you interact with specific characters, the stronger your bond will be, and the better your friendship will be as well. However, once you’ve increased your bond with a specific character all the way up to its max level, you will unlock a relationship event with that character. In Harvestella, this event is called a Partnership and is crucial when it comes to building romantic relationships in Harvestella.

Once you’ve completed a Partnership event with a character in Harvestella, you can move in together! Though, for you to be able to move in with the character you’ve built your romance within Harvestella, you’ll have to first ensure that the world is at peace already; otherwise, it won’t be able to happen. You also need to have the entire main story completed in Harvestella.
