Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Sep 3 → 2.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
The Celestial Collapse—a calamity caused by a colossal object crashing into the eastern lands known as Azuma. The devastating impact sent fragments of terrain to the skies above and the seas below. With the earth shattered, the power provided by the runes ceased to flow. The gods of nature vanished soon after. Mountains crumbled and fields withered, leaving the people with nothing…not even hope.
You awaken, startled by a dream of dueling dragons. You don’t remember how or why, but a voice resonates within you.
"Accept the power of an Earth Dancer. Use this power to save the land."
Experience Rune Factory reimagined! Guardians of Azuma is an all-new adventure that takes place in the never-before-seen eastern country of Azuma. Embrace your Earth Dancer powers and fight against the corruption spreading throughout Azuma to bring hope back to this once-prosperous land.
As an Earth Dancer, use the power of dance, sacred treasures, and fresh weapons like the Bow and Talisman to purify the land, your farms, and undo the Blight’s damage.
Don’t just mind the farm—rebuild entire villages! Construct and place buildings, enticing people to return to the villages and contribute. Revive the gods to bring vitality and valuable resources back to the plagued lands.
Experience beautiful Japanese-inspired character designs and aesthetics—from festivals, events, and monsters. Explore Azuma’s natural landscapes and its seasonal-themed locales steeped in tradition.
Choose between male and female protagonists, then befriend or romance any of the eligible candidates in fully voiced scenarios. Recruit these new friends to aid you in battle, too!

玩着犯困
星露谷玩家觉得很好玩,种菜累了可以谈恋爱,谈恋爱累了可以种菜。 单人任务做累了可以做主线,啥都不想干还可以去钓鱼 能多开世界线攻略全角色这点很喜欢,角色谈恋爱之前的任务剧情一般,之后的剧情蛮好的 能感受到那种细腻的情感,结婚的时候真的蛮感动的 节日角色会主动邀约,没赴约第二天还会触发相关对话,类似的小细节做得很好
This game is good but its lack of customization of other people clothing in game you only get two from 2 different DLC but there should be clothing store where you can buy clothes without DLC in previous games you could do it with married partner it has every store except the clothing store
I am very disappointed in this game. I am a long time Rune Factory fan. This isn't like any Rune Factory game I've played. It has a lot of interesting concepts. The combat is cool conceptually, but is really clunky and poorly done. The game forces Ubisoft-style tutorials down your throat. Like, dude let me play the game. I load into the game and the game assumes I care about all these characters and this town. There is no foreshadowing just shoving the story down my throat. I just want to play the game!!! God! The farming is completely optional in this gaming. Which essentially turns RF: Guardians of Azuma into a dungeon crawler, and I am sorry I can play much better dungeon crawlers. I do like the idea that you can manage your villagers to do certain things. I am glad they tried something different, but it just seems like the amalgamation of good but half baked concepts with an extremely overbearing story.
I like the game. The farming and crafting might not be the main grind but the fight is more fun than the previous game. I also like the romance options and the story as well.
上头,好玩
Best in the Rune Factory series thus far.
Just finished watching the credits. This game is really good, but at the same time I'm not the type to look for things to criticize when I play games. It's not traditional RF4 gameplay, which is really good, but I don't think I'd enjoy it as much if the developers just used that same formula over and over. I like the experimentation. I think the character design was good, the graphics are pretty, and I enjoy the gameplay. That's really all there is to it. The Rune Factory series thrives on its unique and lovable characters, and here it definitely does not disappoint. Every character, not just the romanceable ones, offer something silly and whimsical to the experience that I often find I can't get anywhere else. Plus you get to see them interact with each other, not just you, and that is something that can be rare even for more character driven games like this one. There's plenty of content, I had a great time, and I will be playing again. I do have to mention that it sucks that two of the romances are locked behind dlc, but to be honest I got it on sale so it is what it is. Even if you don't like the idea of a 3D Rune Factory, it might be worth it to just give it a try and immerse yourself in the whimsy. And if you like it check out the wii Rune Factory games because those are pretty good too.
