As the Player arrives at their Grandfather's old farm, they are met with an expansive forest which has overgrown onto the property. In Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town, it is up to the Player to take back the land and bend it to their will. The Player will have to clear the land of trees and debris, fix up broken facilities, and find livestock in the wild. Along the way, the farm will expand and go through upgrades!
Your House[edit]
Real Country Living[edit]
In Pioneers of Olive Town, you'll be starting from the ground up. Literally! The Player begins with a simple tent and campfire, and can upgrade their abode with the right materials. The tent comes with a pop-up cot, radio, some books, and a calendar.
House Upgrades[edit]
When you're tired of living in a tent, Nigel will take requests for housing upgrades at his shop, Nigel's Handiworks.
Log Cabin |
| A wooden house. Comes with a kitchen, fridge, wardrobe, bath, and space for decorating. Large enough for one pet. | |
Small House |
| A more home-y abode. Comes with a larger decorating area and a bigger fridge. It's spacious enough for two pets. | |
Large House |
| An impressive two-story house. Comes with a huge decorating area and a giant fridge. It's large enough for three pets. | |
Gorgeous House |
| The biggest and best house there is! Comes with an extra room for decorating and a luxury fridge. Large enough for four pets. |
Farm Buildings[edit]
For information about livestock animals, please see the Animals page.
As you clear out the land, you'll uncover different facilities including broken barns and worn down coops. All facilities start out "Dilapidated" when they are discovered. With just a little bit of elbow grease and a whole lot of dedication, you can return these buildings to proper form! Restored farm facilities can be moved around your farm, and you can buy more from Nigel at his shop. Each facility restored counts towards your total Pioneering Progress, which can be tracked from the Records sub-section of the Status menu in your Notebook!
Barn[edit]
A variety of animals can be raised in barns. Animals that are properly fed or taken out to pasture will produce milk and other byproducts some days later.

Farm Obstacles[edit]
To access more areas you will have to pick one method for Nigel to repair dilapidated bridges and clear rubble on your farm. Provide the materials needed or pay a certain amount. The last bridge is needed to enter Mine 3, the Expert Mine.

Shortcuts[edit]
After completing all of the Town Development Events, you can complete Spirit Quests if your game is updated to Version 1.1.0 or above. These quests are a bit more difficult and require all parts to be completed in order to fully satisfy the requirements. After satisfying the requirements for Spirit Quest 3, you will gain access to a tunnel that links Area 1 and Area 3 together. It makes traveling easier between the two areas.
