  1. Aran

    The latest installment of my favorite series hasn’t let me down. It’s no RF4, but it’s definitely a great entry for the Switch generation.

    Grab this if you like the series.

  2. kolbybear

    Always a fun way to break up just a simple farming sim game by adding in dungeons!

  3. Puig69

    If you like farm simulator with a bit of RPG elements then Ruin Factory 5 is a good time.

  4. roro

    I am still pretty early in the game, but so far I am enjoying it! It’s a got a good mix of farming sim, dating sim, and combat! The only complaint I have that really stands out is the lag in this game. I found turning off the optimization mode in the settings helped, and also playing it in docked mode reduces the amount of lag I get while playing.

    Overall, I definitely recommend this game if you’re a OG fan or new to the series!

  5. UpsetConsumer

    Absolute hot mess. A great game plagued by a myriad of technical issues. Broken frame rates, long load times, uneven frame pacing. This has been out in Japan for over a year now. How dare they release a game of such poor quality. Rune Factory 4 is rolling over in its grave. We should be allowed to return games of such poor quality.

  6. Rgalindo084

    I can speak for my wife when I say that she plays this title DAILY. Yes it has frame rate issues when you exit and enter shops and it gets a bit choppy but it’s honestly such a huge world and the story just captivated her attention so much that she refuses to play anything else at the moment. If you like harvest moon titles with an rpg spin on it then this is completely for you!

  7. ChickenFarmer

    LOVE LOVE the game. Just hope that the package best buy sends it out in is padded in the future. it got super beat up.

  8. Alexa

    Fun game, runs a bit sluggishly on the Switch, unfortunately, but nothing that’s too annoying to deal with.

  9. Entertaining

    Game was enjoyed by the kids. Apparently very entertaining. Cute graphics

  10. Tabascoflames

    great sequel with amazing new features. Best RPG and interaction with all the characters. You feel like family here.

  11. Great

    Best game ever. I debated about buying for my daughter but she loves it

  12. greenfeet

    Great graphics. It’s fun to play. We really like it a lot. I’m glad I purchased it.

  13. Jack29

    This is my first rune factory game the graphics are amazing in this game so far I’m enjoying it.

  14. TheGamer

    I’m enjoying this game so much. I was a gift to my self.

  15. Roobie

    Very lovable characters and easy going game. Must buy for farming sims players or those who just want an enjoyable game that is not stressful. Lots of great voice actors.

  16. Kari

    I love this game! New and old Rune Factory fans will love it too.

  17. MrTech

    The performance is on par with ps3. Id blame the switch but i play other games on it that are more demanding and its fine. This developer really botched this on this system. Especially be ause the pc version is running great. Had a friend recommend this series to me and i wont stop giving him flack. So much potential, but just falls flat. Really bummed

  18. ScWi

    Love Rune Factory. This installement is not as invested as 4, but still a solid game. Runs beautifully, no issues.

  19. Kai54

    Love rune factory. Game runs decent, need some updates for the bug problems of course.

  20. LaylorGrace

    Great game so far a little too much tutorial for experienced gamers and those familiar with the Rube Factory games but so far it’s fun and nostalgic for Rune Factory fans.

  21. ap2020

    It is a pretty good addition to the Rune Factory series. I’ve played the series for a while and enjoyed this addition. There are few issues with controls/gameplay. But overall a fun way to sink hours into.

  22. SuperConam

    my daughter loves this franchise,and this is the best in the series to date!

  23. AnonR1

    Fun game for my daughter and me to play. The characters are great.

  24. Ibrahim

    If this is your only way to play this game it is a good enough version. If you have a pc/steam deck I’d recommend getting it there instead. Since I love the switch and always have it on me though i decided with this version. It runs good enough and this is a nice sequel for anyone who likes the games 🙂

  25. Matthew

    No quality control. I loved Rune Factory 4. I also waited until recently to purchase knowing that there were bugs and major issues. Sadly still lags and has a ton of bugs and I tried really hard to love it, but it looks and plays like a game from 20 years ago and was very disappointing.

  26. Nick

    Such a fun game, if you like dragon quest youll love this

  27. Atom

    Its a okay farmering sim the battling is a little off but still great game love the graphic revamp

  28. Mike

    Decent good story alot of training you need time!!

  29. conego

    I bought this game because I liked how the game play looked. Was a great choice for me since I like playing RPG games.

  30. Conde

    Rune Factory 5 for the Nintendo Switch is a excellent game

  31. Kevin

    Half RPG, half farming sim, this is a game that has it all. An easy introduction to rpg elements but has the farming life goodness you crave.

  32. AHS1

    A solid title for core fans of the franchise though not a vast difference in gameplay from previous entries

  33. Niamoni

    This is my first time playing a Farming Sim and I have to say I like Harvestella better. There’s more action than farming in that game and I don’t really care for the relationships aspect. To each, there own

  34. Alenhart

    If your are a fan of the series it wont disappoint you!!

  35. trex

    The farming aspect is fun and fleshed out. The combat side of things is okay, but not as good other games more foucsed on combat.

  36. RubyR

    So this is my first rune factory game and i love it. Some things are hard to understand because i’m not used to how things work and the mechanics of the game are what first gen players are used too. Example knocking fruit out of the tree with your bracelet. I would’ve have known that if I didn’t ask Allegra Clark on her stream for some help. I like the dungeons and the farming balance, the voice actors are amazing and add in good depth to the game. – Ruby’s daughter

  37. Brails

    Not really my cup of tea for an rpg. Graphics are awful in my opinion, I know it’s a switch but they seem pretty outdated for 2022-23. Combat and movement is clunky. UI isn’t very seamless. This is my first time with a rune factory game and probably my last.

  38. WhiteDragonSLove

    I LOVE Rune Factory 5! There’s a lot of fun within

  39. NoahJ

    Great game, fun and a great way to pass the time!!

  40. RobertR

    harvest moon style RPG fun game great to just sit back and play

  41. KellyL

    Fun game if you like a mix of role playing games, and farm simulation.

  42. bp0453

    This is a great little game. But it you won’t regret it.

  43. Khaz661

    When you play JRPGs you will tend to expect anime somehow being involved. Well, if you’re reading this far you won’t be disappointed as the game is influenced by anime tropes as well as games like Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon mixed with JRPG.

  44. LucasJ

    Love this game a new high for the series in my opinion

  45. CherryB

    Pretty okay game NOT on switch, lag times make it a much worse time
