Story
You play either as a boy character (Mark) or a girl character (Chelsea). The story starts with you boarding a ship to escape from the city life and to begin a new one on an island. While you are on the boat, you encounter a bad storm at sea and the ship is hit by lightning and is destroyed. Taro finds you on the beach and wakes you up. He was on the boat as well as his daughter Felicia, his granddaughter Natalie and his grandson Elliot. They introduce themselves and take you to explore the island. Taro takes you to the top of the island and finds an old abandoned ranch. He asks you if you want to be the rancher of this island. You automatically agree.
From then on you must complete certain requirements to attract more residents to the town, such as fishing a certain amount to gain the fishermen residents.
