Games like rune factory

Rune Factory (ルーンファクトリー, Rūn Fakutorī) is a role-playing simulation video game series developed by Neverland Co., Ltd. for the Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Switch, Wii and the PlayStation 3 video game consoles, and a spin-off of the Harvest Moon/Story of Season video game series. It is described by Yoshifumi Hashimoto, producer of the Harvest Moon/Story of Season series, as "Harvest Moon where you wield a sword."

The gameplay of the Rune Factory series is similar to that of Harvest Moon/Story of Season. For every one real-world second, one in-game minute passes. The player can grow crops, using upgradeable farm equipment. However, the Harvest Moon game mechanic of purchasing animals has been replaced by defeating and befriending monsters in dungeons. If a monster is tamed, it can help the player in battle, produce goods, or help to tend the crops. The game's combat is in the action role-playing game style.
