| Rune Factory (Video Game) | comment |
The first game in the Rune Factory series, released on the Nintendo DS. It was developed by Neverland Co and published by Marvelous AQL. The game was intended to be a single Spin-Off game that commemorated the 10th anniversary of the Story of Seasons series. It was later released in North America by Natsume on August 14, 2007. Rune Factory was a hit with gamers and critics, which resulted in Marvelous AQL deciding to continue the series independently from it's parent franchise.The story begins with a young, amnesiac man named Raguna collapsing in front of a home on the outskirts of a village called Kardia. The homeowner named Mist finds Raguna and attempts to help him... by giving him a hoe and a watering can. Eventually, she does manage to actually help him and allows Raguna to live on an unused area of land nearby (with compensation).Soon Raguna is producing crops for profit, slaying monsters, wooing the village ladies, and potentially stopping the Take Over the World plot of Ethelberd and his Sechs Empire next door. | |

| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_159850a5 | comment |
Warp Whistle: Escape, which brings you from a dungeon to its entrance, and Teleport, which brings you from anywhere outside to your house. | |

Unwinnable by Design | |
| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_1bd4c0bf | comment |
Unwinnable by Design: If you were foolish enough to camp in Misty Bloom on the last day of winter without bringing Teleport magic (and the Game-Breaking Bug "luckily" didn't happen), you'd be stuck there. | |

Magic Is Rare, Health Is Cheap | |
| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_1d46fe35 | comment |
Magic Is Rare, Health Is Cheap: Almost no restoration items recover RP. This is one of the Early-Installment Weirdness factors making the RP system practically nonexistent. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Magic (except for Heal) is essentially worthless, because every spell has a fixed RP cost and you have a fixed RP cap, and RP restoration is a pain to come by. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: Camping in Misty Bloom on the last day of winter has a chance of crashing the game and corrupting your save file. Of course, if that doesn't happen, and you didn't bring the Teleport magic, your game is now Unwinnable by Design, so you're kinda screwed either way. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable | |
| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b | comment |
Unintentionally Unwinnable: Using save points in caves while poisoned and sealed is dangerous — fainting inside a cave means Game Over, and poison can deplete that all-important last hit point, while being sealed means you can't use your Warp Whistle magic to get out instantly. If you're in deep enough and didn't bring enough healing items, the combination can end your game for good. | |

| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_83ea0763 | comment |
Rouge Angles of Satin: The script is absolutely riddled with spelling errors, most memorably a misspelling of 'swordsman' as 'sowrdsman' in the very last scene of the game. | |

Disk One Nuke: It's perfectly possible to make the Heaven Asunder, one of the best swords in the game, well before the first Winter makes available the rest of the game's caves, and with them, the materiel for the other, much harder to make weapons and tools. | |

Sleeping Single: If you get Sabrina and Neumann to reconcile and remarry, the newlyweds will continue to live in their original, separate houses for the time being, since they both have preexisting work there. The bride hints that she expects the groom to build a new big house for them soon, though. | |

| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_bd275efa | comment |
Developers' Desired Date: The opening heavily features Mist, the young woman who first finds Raguna unconscious at the beginning of the game, while the other marriage candidates get a very brief cameo alongside the rivals. Mist also technically owns the farm that needs to be managed as part of the game, so Raguna ends up seeing a lot of her. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
| Rune Factory (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: Going fishing day 1 and selling your catch in the bar lets you buy the small kitchen from Ivan immediately, instead of having to wait til Summer. This isn't that helpful long-run, since the game eventually makes you clear Misty Bloom (only accessible during Winter) as part of the plot, but it lets you buy the lower-tier kitchen tools immediately on Spring 19 instead of having to listen to Ivan nag you about not having a kitchen yet. | |
