If Friends of Mineral Town is already on the service and already ranked, why mention this one? Because A Wonderful Life is a meaningfully different game with a different rhythm, one that plays out across a full in-game lifetime rather than endless repeating seasons. The remake is well done. If you have already put time into Friends of Mineral Town and want another farming-sim lane on PS Plus, this is the next stop. The slower pacing and the passing-of-time structure give it a slightly more reflective quality. Just note that the two games share enough DNA that playing both back-to-back will dull the novelty of each.

Overview
About Story Of Seasons: A Wonderful Life
Put down roots on your new farm in the peaceful town of Forgotten Valley, and tell your own generation-spanning tale in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life. Bring life to the land, find love among the town's friendly folk, and make lasting memories with a family of your very own in this reimagining of a beloved farm sim.
Story setup
Your new life begins in Forgotten Valley, a tranquil community where your father and his friend Takakura once dreamed of running a farm. As you befriend the valley’s residents and fulfill your father’s legacy, you’ll live a carefree life on the farm growing crops and raising animals. As the seasons go by, you’ll find your lifelong partner, raise a child together, and watch them grow up before your very eyes.
After each day’s work on the farm is done, you can go fishing, hunt for ancient treasures at the local dig site, or chat with your friends in town to build precious memories. And when the years have passed, your child will be old enough to choose a career for themselves... Will they inherit the farm? Or will they find their calling somewhere else? Only time will tell.
