>>44563453You don't have to play any of them in any particular order. Each one's basically a self contained experience, but they all have their own sets of bachelorettes and some games, bachelors, which is the real draw. The mechanics get better as the games go along. I would recommend emulating them. RF Frontier on the Wii is one of my personal favorites
outside Runey hell, but the game that came after it was a really weird departure. RF3 and RF4
Especially Special are really good games though. I like the balance a lot more than Harvest Moon which can get very boring. I need to play Rune Factory 5 actually as well.
