* DevelopersForesight: The ''A Busy Day'' event involves Daryl visiting a married farmer, sending a letter beforehand about it. If the player married Stephanie or Woofio (both of whom have private ceremonies), Daryl's letter and some of his dialogue changes significantly to acknowledge this.

** On a character related usage, Woofio's friend event is about him honing his skills as an animal trainer is as goofy and silly as you'd expect [[GoofySuit from]] [[ManChild him]]. [[spoiler:His actual love events on the other hand are more serious in tone, revealing Woofio isn't as childish and carefree as his stage persona lets on, all in part of his secret.]]

** If you marry Ludus and have a daughter with him, one name he suggests for her is [[WesternAnimation/{{Moana}} Moana]].

* HappilyMarried: A recurring theme, interesting in that there are many ''types'' of happily married couples, ranging from successful arranged marriages where both halves of the couple quietly support each other, to the brawny, kind fisherman head-over-heels for the mildly terrifying love of his life. On a more bittersweet note, their are also quite a few widows and widowers who were once half of a happily married pair.

** Wearing the Apron Dress and talking to Haulani has him comment the outfit makes him want to bake a cake. The outfit resembles Elli's, whom in her [[VideoGame/HarvestMoon64 debut game]] was a baker instead of a nurse.
** The default outfits from ''VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons'' are those that prompt a comment by Dessie and Woofio, both whom debuted in the game. Dessie remarks the outfits as bringing back memories while Woofio notes they seem familiar.

* PlentyOfBlondes: Nearly every single human person in Westown is blond (save Dessie and Stephanie, whom have green and pink hair respectively). They range from platinum to strawberry to dirty blond, but they're all a shade of gold. Witchie also has blond hair.

** Like in the previous title, it makes a nod to ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros''. This time you can get Mario's, Luigi's, Toad's, and Peach's clothes to wear for your player. They all even give bonuses!

* {{Tanabata}}: The Star Festival that's celebrated in Tsuyukasa is essentially Tanabata with a different name. It involves writing wishes on strips of paper to hang from bamboo, and later everyone goes to see the stars.

* AdultFear: One character's backstory involves [[spoiler:a child being taken away by a forest spirit and never is found again by their parents]]. Said character is [[spoiler:that very same child, aka Woofio]].

* FarEast: Tsuyukusa, like with Konohana from ''VideoGame/TaleOfTwoTowns''.

** Talking to Witchie may make her badmouth her elder sister and proudly proclaim that she will surpass her. Talking to her the following day then reveals that she woke up all tied up, possibly her sister taking her revenge for badmouthing her.

** Inverted and subverted with Komari, who is introduced with just her dad...and quickly mentions that her mother is a world traveler and does this a lot. Dialogue later reveals that it ''has'' caused some strife between the two, however.

* SelfImposedChallenge: The Weakling starting "bonus". On top of having a base of two stamina hearts, the cap is now seven instead of ten. Unfortunately for anyone masochistic enough to try this, you need to complete the story to unlock it or play on a copy that already has it unlocked.

** Woofio's reaction to the Ninja outfit set is to ask if the farmer can throw [[{{Franchise/Naruto}} 'spinny things' or run on water before expressing disappointment the road to being a ninja must be hard.]]

''Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns'' (''Bokujō Monogatari: Mittsu no Sato no Taisetsuna Tomodachi, lit. Ranch Story: Cherished Friends of Three Towns'' in Japan) is a [=3DS=] title as part of the newly minted ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoon Story Of Seasons]]'' games.

* MoodWhiplash: Some of the picture shows. "Searching for a Star," for example, starts out as an apparently childish (or insipid, depending on your preference) story of a young boy chasing a star around his neighborhood and recounting how very special his family and friends are. Then you're made aware that [[spoiler: the star is the boy's father, who's been DeadAllAlong, and the whole thing is something of an AdventuresInComaland escapade which [[BittersweetEnding ends on a bittersweet note]] with Dad still dead, but the boy informing his mother that she's pregnant and that he will now look after everyone in his father's stead]].
** On a character related usage,Woofio's friend event is about him honing his skills as an animal trainer is as goofy and silly as you'd expect [[GoofySuit from]] [[ManChild him]].[[spoiler: His actual love events on the other hand are more serious in tone, revealing Woofio isn't as childish and carefree as his stage persona lets on, all in part of his secret.]]

** The default outfits from VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons are those that prompt a comment by Dessie and Woofio, both whom debuted in the game. Dessie remarks the outfits as bringing back memories while Woofio notes they seem familiar.

** Komari's design is based on [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/hmwikia/images/e/e3/Kuon.png/revision/latest?cb=20160713194620 Kuon]] from the ''River King'' series.

* BrickJoke: After winning a contest, Komari would enthusiastically celebrate the player's victory while chanting Sekihan. Winning another contest in the future can prompt Ginjiro doing the same thing, before the player reveals Komari did it already.

** On a character related usage,Woofio's friend event is about him honing his skills as an animal trainer is as goofy and silly as you'd expect [[GoofySuit from]] [[ManChild him]].[[spoiler: His actual love events on the other hand are more serious in tone, revealing Woofio is not only mature, but has a secret that has prevented from getting too close to people to begin with.]]

* PlentyOfBlondes: Every single human person in Westown is blond (Dessie's hair is [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair green]], but she's a magical guardian-in-training, not an ordinary person). They range from platinum to strawberry to dirty blond, but they're all a shade of gold. Witchie also has blond hair.

** Witchie may randomly comment something about her elder sister, proudly proclaiming to surpass her. If you talk to her the following day, she mentions that she found herself all tied up upon waking, most probably because of what she said the day before.

* DevelopersForesight: The 'A Busy Day' event involves Daryl visiting a married farmer, sending a letter beforehand about it. If the player married Stephanie or Woofio (whom both have private ceremonies), Daryl's letter and some of his dialogue changes significantly to acknowledge the fact.

** On a character related usage,Woofio's friend event is about him honing his skills as an animal trainer is as goofy and silly as you'd expect [[GoofySuit from]] [[ManChild him]].[[spoiler: His actual love events on the other hand are more serious in tone, revealing Woofio's real personality outside his stage persona (fully aware of how much he looks like a weirdo to others), but also the secret that has prevented from getting too close to people to begin with.]]

** One of Woofio's suggested male baby names is Fritz. Two of his suggested female baby names are Ilse and Agatha, which are look similar to Elise and Agate (even more so in the original, as Agatha was originally Agate instead).

** Woofio's reaction to the Ninja outfit set is to ask if the farmer can throw [[{{Franchise/Naruto}} 'spinny things' or run on water]].

** One of Woofio's miscellaneous dialogues has him imitate a laugh very reminiscent to [[{{Creator/Disney}} Goofy]].

The game was released in Japan in Summer 2016, in America February 28th, 2017 and in Australia and Europe on October 13th, 2017.

* DownloadableContent: Has this for the first time in the series proper (not counting Natsume's original games under the ''Harvest Moon'' title). In Japan, it was released as four free updates over the course of 6 months, including new outfits, friend events, two additional marriage candidates and giving Inari a child. In the West, however, XSEED announced that after consulting the fandom, they're going to release it as paid content. The reasons it's going to be paid instead of free are: the sheer amount of text would have encompassed a game in-and-of itself, the costs involved translating said text, and the last update was released right after they entered the QA/submission localization stage and that either delaying the game to include it or attempting to include it within their original schedule plan were completely out of the question.

* OffModel: Schalk's face looks way too big and off-putting compared to the rest of his body.
