About A New Leaf: Memories
Gifted a small and empty plot of land by the mayor, transform and manage the terrain as it blossoms into your own unique farm. From growing crops, planting trees and flowers, and raising your own animals, you are free to choose the life you want.
Cooking
As your farm grows, you are sure to harvest plenty of fruits and vegetables. Instead of selling your produce in full, why not save some of those fresh ingredients for yourself? There are many recipes that can be discovered on the island. Tip: Be sure to restore your stamina by preparing food to take with you for long and busy days!
Mining
Head down to the mines for an adventure and explore a network of secret caves. You may stumble upon precious gems and mine ores which you can utilize to upgrade and improve your tools. If you dare to visit deeper into the mines, you may discover rare resources. What treasures will you bring home?
Fishing
Some days are meant for hard work while others call for a bit of leisure. What better way to relax than to take your beloved pet out for a fishing trip? Omoide Island has a variety of water sources that yield different fish, so feel free to explore and catch them all! Don’t forget to continuously upgrade your fishing rod to tackle bigger and rarer fish.
Relationships
You don’t have to be isolated on your farm, feel free to speak with and befriend the townsfolk. You may have items to trade with those in town, or perhaps you just wish to visit. Every island resident has a unique personality and backstory - it’s up to you to learn all about them!
By completing side quests for your neighbors, you may fetch a better buying and selling price or unlock special rewards. Friendship may even turn into romance when you least expect it.
Quests
The residents of Omoide Island will need help on occasion. If someone is in need, you can view their request on the bulletin board in town or you may receive a letter directly. Don’t worry if you are busy with another task as side quests and missions are optional.
Currently, there are two types of quests available: the main quest linked directly to your character’s storyline and optional side quests. The former will lead your character to uncover their forgotten memories and answer the question: what happened before arriving on the island? The latter quests will allow you to improve your relationships and unlock unique items that cannot otherwise be crafted.
What is life without a furry companion at your side? Pets are, and will always be, your most loyal companions. Explore Omoide Island together, give them endless pets, and play until the sun sets. Your pet, aside from keeping you company, can also assist with farming duties.
Pets Currently Available:
Animals
In addition to planting and managing your crops, you can also raise farm animals. Care for your adorable neighbors with feeding, grooming, cleaning, and - of course - plenty of petting! Your animals love to be showered with affection and, in return, will yield a variety of important resources such as milk, eggs, wool, and feathers.
If you have animals of different genders in the same barn or coop, they may even make a family of their own.
Character Customization
If you ever feel the need to upgrade your look, spice things up by altering your wardrobe or hair. You have the full ability to customize your character by switching hairstyles, eye and skin color, and clothing. Looking for a new outfit? Different clothing can be found all around Omoide Island!
Home and Base Customization
Your home is where you relax and unwind after a long day’s work. Upgrade your space to have everything from a larger interior to new and decorative furniture. Take it a step further and customize your farm by having full control over barn placement, coops, fences, and more!

Players report this Kickstarter-backed game has been abandoned with no updates since mid-2024, leaving backers feeling scammed as promised rewards and features never materialized. Those who have attempted to play describe it as a buggy, incomplete mess that shouldn't be in early access, with fundamental technical and gameplay issues that make it largely unplayable. While the game's premise as a cozy life-sim farming game with an amnesia narrative showed promise, the lack of developer communication and progress has eroded any goodwill from the community.
Backed this as a kickstarter in 2021. Been waiting for a long time for this game to reach a completion point, and I still checked in here and there. At this point though: no updates or response in discord and no updates on the game in a long time, and I'm pretty sure this game has been abandoned. Very sad and disappointed. I think it had a lot of promise. Add to that, zero of the rewards I paid for in to get in the game. I was really looking forward to the kind of aesthetic I saw for this kind of game but this left a bad taste in my mouth.12 found this helpful

I was yet another KS backer...and I really feel, well, scammed. It's a fairly empty, clunky mess with nothing in it that we were promised. Don't waste your money, time or sanity for this unfortunate, and likely forever unfinished and unpolished "game".6 found this helpful

This game is so not ready. It shouldn't even be an early access in my opinion. Besides it's been an early access for years now they really need to fix basically everything as you can see I've barely been able to play it because it just will not work. I would refund it had I known refunding things was possible when I purchased it a year or so ago. But I was relatively new to online games and I didn't really know you could do that yet you live and you learn I guess. If anything I'm happy that I got it at a sale price and didn't pay full price for this mess. The only reason I haven't just outright deleted it from my library as I'm hoping that maybe although it might be a snowball's chance in hell at this point that it gets to turn around. It could be great if they put the effort in.1 found this helpful
A New Leaf: Memories is a cozy life-simulation game that blends farming, exploration, and light narrative mystery into a slow-paced experience centered on rebuilding both a home and a sense of identity. The game opens with the player arriving on Omoide Island suffering from complete memory loss, a framing device that quietly motivates every system in the game. Rather than pushing a dramatic storyline, this premise gives emotional context to everyday activities, making even simple routines like planting crops or meeting villagers feel like steps toward rediscovering who you are and where you belong. At its core, the game leans heavily into familiar farming and life-sim foundations. You’re given land to cultivate and the freedom to shape it according to your preferences, growing crops, raising animals, and expanding your homestead over time. The mechanics are intentionally forgiving, with no harsh penalties for inefficiency or missed days, allowing players to move at their own rhythm. This relaxed structure reinforces the game’s cozy identity, encouraging experimentation and personal expression rather than optimization or pressure. Farming, animal care, and harvesting are all design…1 found this helpful
