I'm off to milk the cows!

Advantages: The characters, game controls and the farmind idea.
Disadvantages: Music.

...Princess has always hated the Harvest Goddess, when she performs a prank on the Goddess though she accidently sends her to a different world! The Witch Princess sent the Harvest Sprites to that world to help her find the Goddess but she also needs your help, by doing farming chores and interacting with the villagers of Forget-Me-Not Valley sprites will be sent back to their original world and soon the Harvest Goddess will be saved.

...are a big issue in Harvest Moon, festivals are hosted for them, they give you produce which you can sell for a lot of money and you can actually pet them. You'll have to buy a pair of touch panel gloves from a character and then walk up to a animal, the animal appears on the bottom screen which you can interact with the stylus. Throughout the game your character will appear on the top screen and the bottom interacting screen will have the rucksack ...

Farming has never been so fun!

Advantages: Replay value, Easy to get into, Addictive
Disadvantages: Music can get repetitive

...For those who don't know, Harvest Moon is a video game series that has progressed from the SNES to the N64 to the PSX and all the way to the 'Cube and now, the Nintendo DS. The series typically puts the player in the role of a farmer in charge of a run down farm. The surrounding area always has a village to visit where one can buy items and attend various events. The aim of the game is to make money by planting/growing crops, rearing animals and ...
...unlocks etcetera is amazing. Harvest Moon is an RPG (Role Playing Game) which is completely non-violent - unless you include destroying a few dark creatures down the mines. ==It's A Hard Knock Life== The game begins with a nice little cutscene with the Witch Princess (new as far as i can tell) and the Harvest Goddess. The Witch inadvertently makes the Harvest Goddess turn to stone and vanish. In an attempt to rectify the situation, she sends all ...

The educational harvest

Advantages: a good educational game
Disadvantages: have to be older to fully understand it

...saw my daughter had received harvest Moon for her DS on her birthday. Lately I had seen it advertised more and more on tv and it looked like a game I could easily get lost in. My poor daughter didn't stand a chance as I whisked it away from her after a couple of hours, on the promise that I would have a look at how it worked and help her play the game! The general idea of Harvest Moon is to run your own farm, growing crops, rearing animals and ...
...season has ended you cannot harvest anything from them anymore. So as we start out on our new farm which has nothing but empty field and a house and stable, you are presented with a cat and a dog, which you have to name. There is also a horse stable as I just mentioned so a horse is to be found somewhere. I managed to get my horse after a few days and I wont give it away here how I did it, but it was a heavily debated question between me and my ...

Now... Where did I put that Duck?

Advantages: Multiple possibilities, Relaxed gameplay, Endless
Disadvantages: Cost of buildings and extensions

Harvest Moon DS is a farming simulation game where you care for your animals while making money to expand you farm. The game begins with the Witch Princess casting a spell on the Harvest Goddess that turns her to stone and sends her and the Harvest Sprites to another dimention. The task then falls to you to recover these sprites so that she will return to this realm. Your basic farm consists of a stable, water hole, mailbox, your house, your mentors ...
...season and you can even harvest some crops more than once! When you are selling you produce you do however have to make sure that it is in the shipping bin before 5:00pm (game time) otherwise you will not get paid for it, but you must be careful because when something goes into the bin it can not be retrieved. You begin you game with a dog and a cat, but as you complete some tasks then you unlock a horse that can help you get around the town quicker ...

Back to harvest moon again

Advantages: Like other versions, good simulation game, quite addictive
Disadvantages: a little repetative, graphics not great

...all the other versions of harvest moon, so if you enjoyed those you will like this. The aim of this game is to find the magic elves which as far as i can tell so far happens from random events, these elves can then help you run your farm e.g watering crops, collecting lumber. The charaters in the game are almost exactly the same as those in the PS2 version ( its a wonderful life) as is the layout of the villiage. The farm however is different, you ...
...bit repetative it's really easy to get the basics but more difficult to complete due to little instructions. IF you liked other harvest moon games you will definately like this as apart froma few tweaks its much the same, and therefore if not don't bother. Also graphics are very basic. ...

Im a farmer

Advantages: hours of gameplay
Disadvantages: none

...is to find the 101 harvest sprites and bring the harvest goddess back.Sounds simple but some of the sprites are hard to find.When this is done or before its done there are loads of other things to do. Farming Obviously this is one of the main things that you can do.Different crops can be grown in different months.Seeds can be bought from the supermarket and once you have got enough sprites back you can also buy some crops from them.

Harvest Moon

Advantages: Good game for kids
Disadvantages: Gets boring

For fans of the Harvest Moon series or little kids, this game's cute chibi look should instantly draw them in. The cover's vivid colors and adorable characters were made for attracting small children. The game starts with the Harvest Goddess asking you for your name, birthday, pet names, and farm name. After you fill in all that information, the game takes you to the beach, where the Harvest Goddess and Witch Princess are fighting in the classic ...
...If you've ever played one Harvest Moon game, you've played them all, and this one is no different. The Witch Princess' comebacks are childish (but this is a children's game) and all the Harvest Goddess says is "Tadaaaaa!". Your possible suitors only have about five remarks programmed into the database. The controls are all wacky. To be blunt, this isn't a very good game. And now that all has been said and done, I ask you this: Final Fantasy anyone? ...

Harvest Moon: The Future of Farming

Advantages: Fun, Easy To Play, Own Time Zone
Disadvantages: - None -

...is to find the 101 harvest sprites, you may think that this is an easy thing to do but I'm afraid you are wrong. They really are not the simpest things to find, you need find them because the witch (whos name has slipped my mind) cast a spell of the harvest princess and she disappeared, the harvest sprites were then sent to go find her, you have to find them because eventually the harvest princess will come back. They do also have another use though ...
...in. Each of the harvest sprites belongs to a particular team and can help you out on your farm, for a fee of course. They charge you in medals which is the currency used in their tree house, you play the games and win medals, the first game usually unlocked is the matching game which costs you 10 medals to play but when you win, you receive 100 medals which you can spend on prizes such as special seeds or other prizes. When you choose a team that ...

Harvest Moon DS - amazing!!

Advantages: So so addictive!!
Disadvantages: Can't think of any!

...Like in the other harvest moon games you can go fishing, cook, mine and marry! This is probably one of my favourite harvest moon games ,as as well as looking after your farm you have to rescue 101 sprites who were taken to another world by the evil Witch Princess to save the Harvest Goddess who she also sent away!! You rescue them by just living your normal life but it's a thrill to know you've saved some sprites!! There are some new people to ...
...about this game is the touch screen for cleaning/brushing/milking/shaving (sheeps wool!)! the animals are very cartoony and very cute ^-^ The Harvest moon games have never dissapointed me and this is no exception!! It's a such an addictive game which you could play for hours and not get bored!! ...

Getting old for me

Advantages: Fun enjoyable cute game and characters suitable for all ages easy
Disadvantages: Easily bored

...about the same in other harvest moon series. It gets very repetitive, you have to do the same thing everyday, grow, harvest, grow, harvest, feed,feed and go to sleep. Can be a little draggy.But that is what Harvest Moon is all about. You can go the village and interact with female characters and build a strong relationship with them and finally when you have all the hearts red for you you can ask her to propose and marry you. Then you and your wife ...

Harvest moon-DS

Advantages: loads of adventures
Disadvantages: music can repeat its self alot

...a witch took away the harvest princess so you have to sell all your produce by looking after and grow crops, take care of animals and the more you do this the closer you get to bringing the princess back and find the love of your life and then eventually have children but some people might find this a bit lame as it does sound it but when you actually have a go and play on this game you will see how much fun it is. everyday is a new adventure making ...

Quick review of Harvest Moon (Nintendo DS)

A fantastic experience that is truly rewarding. You find yourself drawn into a truly satisfying experience of crop cycles and marketerring, poor tender love onto your crops or\animals and reap the rewards of produce to send to market. You can even catch fish. The game brings out the need to earn money so that you can build new buildings on your farm… Its not easy to earn money so there is a real sense of achievement when you manage to afford a new purchase. Not a game…a way of life ...
