Harvest Hunt

Harvest Hunt is a single-player, first-person survival horror game with roguelite elements. You play as a Warden entering the cursed village of Luna Nova at night to harvest Ambrosia from its cornfields and keep the village alive. The Devourer stalks the fields and taints the crop, so each run calls for different ways to survive.

Harvest in Luna Nova

Ambrosia is a precious resource that grows in strange ways, and the hunger for it is strong. As the Devourer hunts you, you can turn off your lantern to sneak and hide, or fight and banish it for a bigger reward. Tentacle creatures, poisoned waters and other calamities also threaten the village.

Seasons and Whispers

During the day, you encounter the enigmatic Whispers, a tarot-inspired system that combines calamities and blessings in endless permutations. The game spans five challenging harvest seasons, with multiple tense runs lasting 10–15 minutes each. Your abilities reset with each season, while the Devourer evolves and grows stronger.

Weapons and abilities

You unlock weapons and abilities for your Warden and village, then build a deck to suit your needs. Options include a pricey wooden voodoo doll or a free rusty pitchfork, and abilities to build hideouts in the fields or heal while crouched. Equipping them can require sacrificing your own health.

Story and characters

The dark folk-horror story unfolds in Luna Nova, a painterly village steeped in dread. You embody a colorful cast of characters, including an aristocrat far removed from wealth and ease and a priest armed with sacred verses. Through the eyes of a modern-day Investigator who shares their curse and is running out of time, you explore the lives of these seemingly ordinary villagers and the Whispers that haunt their steps.
