“My opinion of this game: Currently it is too buggy to play. Many functions don't work properly, the controls aren't good. I would like to play more with the mouse, because the IJKL-Controlling is seriously bad. But…”
“Note: I got a key from the developer for beta testing. In short: I am quite indecisive about the rating. It is not bad enough to give it a thumbs down but has too many bugs / incomplete features to give it a thumbs up.…”
“I haven't played a lot of these games and I believe that you need to play it for a good 2 hours before you can start enjoying it. I must admit I was getting a bit bored walking around for an hour meeting characters but…”

“Hello. I don't usually write reviews, but I'm writing this hoping that it will help someone else out. The game design overall for Wild Season is fantastic...feels just like a mobile Harvest Moon game. Just that overall…”

“I am a big fan of Harvest Moon, so when I found out about this game I was hyped. I got my beta copy for review purpose, and went onto my journey of Wild Season. If you are not familiar with the concept of Wild Season,…”

“Early Access Review: First off, big nostalgia to Harvest Moon, i liked that. The art and soundtrack pretty enjoyable and on the theme of the game as well. Of course, it's still on Early Access, some bugs and such. The…”
“Wild Season is a story-centric farming simulator with a lot of potential. You just invested all your money into the purchase of a farm which turns out to be not quite what you expected, in a town full of people who…”

“Wild Season looks a promising game and on the right track of development. Gameplay is solid so far, Story is kinda fun and mysterious. Haven't encountered any Bugs so far. Only thing i have against this game is the…”
“First of all, I can't clearly say that I'm a huge admirer of farming/grinding games, so my impressions might not convey what I actually felt while playing this. Still, I was quite surprised to see how many possibilities…”

“I love the Harvest Moon and Rune Factory games. Even paid top dollar for the original SNES cartridge which I still have and can play today. I was really excited about this game until I purchased it and actually played…”
“As much as I wanted to love Wild Season I just couldn't. This was another Kickstarter backed game that I threw my money at the second I saw it. I've played every Harvest Moon since the first and I've been waiting a long…”
“Episode One....EPISODE ONE?!? This game has some of the most infuriating controls, knee jerk stories I have ever seen. Its an unfinished game and only AFTER they release it on steam do they say...Oh we are not only…”

“I paid $36 for this game before it came to steam, for starters. Jokes on me though, the PR staff spends more time going on various vacations then actually doing anything useful within the company. The actual build…”

“Nice game which of course reminds us of Farmville and such. Because its early acces you might encouter bugs here and there however so far it looked nice and looking forward to the rest of the development. Did some horse racing, some mining, fishing and of course the farming bit,…”
— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“Played the game enough to get to the end of the first episode, the devs have their priorities way out of order, coupled with the fact that they clearly bit off more than they could chew, and you have Wild Season. The game we've all been waiting for. I found myself waking up,…”
