This week, Famitsu has its second article on Story of Seasons: Good Friends of Three Villages.

First, here are some details about some of the characters in the game:

– Bride and groom candidates from Tsuyukusa Village are Kasumi and Yuzuki
– Carey and Brad are a married couple
– These two are in charge of the Garden Grill restaurant in Wes Town
– Marco is Brad’s grandfather
– He previously owned the restaurant
– Also loves fishing

There will be plenty to do in Westown, one of the three main areas in the game. The Postino post office lets you send mail to villagers and family in the city, a mining spot exists to nab ore, and fish.

Famitsu also talks about Power Circles. Players can place these objects in the field to give certain benefits to surrounding crops. Crops affected by Power Circles will turn blue when placed.

Power Circles can have a number of different effects. Famitsu mentions these three examples:

– Cactus: Raise crops’ sweetness
– Flower Wheelbarrow: Raise crops’ color
– Flower Fountain: Raise crops’ humidity

Part-time jobs are also something Famitsu mentions in its article. Players can take these on to earn more cash, and some even provide extra items and improve relationships. Interestingly, jobs will have different contents each time. You’ll take on activities like cutting down wood and delivering mail.
