The harvest bell tolls for Harvey

Crows cry foul in the grass

Reap, don't sow, stay weary

How many seasons will you last?


Harveyster is a hack and slash where you control Harvey the pumpkin scarecrow in his duties to keep the crows at bay before the harvest... the only problem is Harvey can get a little over zealous, so try not to cut the crops too much before they grow!
