THE GOOD: 1. Heartwarming storyline. 2. Small town, but various dramatic events to unlock! 3. Plenty of neat tricks for each tool, including a hidden one! 4. Trashed farm, but plenty of time to fix 'er up. Maybe plant a crop or two. 5. A numerous amount of ways to make money! 6. Can buy chickens, cows, and sheep to populate the farm, may even find a few other animals along the adventure.. 7. Meet the townspeople! 8. Farm life gets lonely, why not get married?
THE BAD: 1. Time clock's turned on turbo speed! Not enough time in each day. 2. Farm life can get pretty repetitive. Is there anything else to do in a day? 3. Music can be annoying. Do they play any other songs!!? 4. Some goals may never be accomplished. Are some features too difficult to complete? 5. This year someone else is racing, but it used to be Barely. What's with all the spelling errors!?
THE GOOD: Cute visuals Solid controls Variety of tasks Requires some thought Special events scattered throughout
THE BAD: Terrible audio Poorly developed characters Becomes repetitve
SUMMARY:
Video games open up a myriad of possible virtual experiences to people. Taking command of armies against alien invaders, seeking to unleash the power of alchemy on the world, race for the finish in high speed challenges or even partake in a round of golf. But farming? Natsume has taken a concept that sounds incredibly boring and made a video game out of it. Surprisingly, it's not anywhere near as boring as it sounds.
Plot
Yes, Natsume decided that simply dropping you onto an undeveloped farm would not do, so they crafted a reason for you being there.
THE GOOD: - Nice selection of marriage candidates - Great amount of animals - Very large farming area
THE BAD: - Graphics aren't the best
SUMMARY: Plot~
While the plot line is a bit basic, the fun is still the same! Raise crops, take care of animals, and build up your farm while earning money and making friends.
While this game will never end, you can't consider the game "beaten" until you've gotten married!
Marriage~
There's a great selection of people to marry. Depending on your preferences, each bachelorette has their own personality, which will fit your certain needs.
But watch out, there's always the chance that your girl will be snatched right from under you! With the addition of rivals and rival cut scenes, it brings about that feeling of competition, which can be found in any love life.
Ability to get married to a wide variety of bachlorettes.
Farming and Ranching gives players plenty of things to do.
Having a child.
You never really "win", so players will probably be interested in the game for quite awhile.
THE BAD:
Music gest annoying after awhile.
Cannot be a female character.
SUMMARY: This is one of the first Harvest Moon games in the series. It's pretty simple, fun, and easy for most ages to understand. PLayers will start off with a blank farm, no crops, and no animals. From there they must work up to becoming successful, and even married with a child. While you're working at that though, there are several other things that you can also do.
The marrige concept in this game is very simple, and the girls affection towards your character is displayed in heart colors. As you give her gifts and trigger certain...
THE GOOD: Well pretty much everything but there are several things that I really like about this game such as how it's so much like real life in almost every way you date, you get married, you can upgrade your house, you can have children, there are annual events and you can win things in a lot of them, theres little guys tat you can get to do your work for you, you have money problems and you even get mail.
THE BAD: I really dont like the way that time completely stops when your indoors this is kinda stupid, there are way too many glitches in the game(these include typo's, errors and other general glitches), getting married or even just trying to get the girls to even like you takes way too much time and money (game currency).
SUMMARY: the game is deffinately one of the best games that will ever be released on the GBA. It is so worth a little bit of money because it rocks.
A lot of people say that that this game is complete trash...
THE BAD: Nothing at all... or actually, it would be good to have a change of clothes, be able to pick up any animal, bigger town, more people, stuff like that.
SUMMARY: This is the first game I have ever played on VBA. I say it's THE BEST. It's got different people with different attitudes and personalities, places to go, lots of stuff to do, not to mention surprises. I was surprised at how realistic the game was (apart from the Harvest Sprites and Goddess, and the way you don't die) and how you can marry someone (I found that out the first time I got smart and decided to visit the cheats page). If you've ever played the GBC versions, well, you know how suuuuuucccccckkkky* (sorry about the language, but I HAD to say that) they are compared to this game! The Natsume people all ROCK!
*Sorry for the extra-long word. It's a way to emphasise, y'know?
THE GOOD: It's got the most excellent graphics I've ever seen besides Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for GBA, and it definitely goes #1 on the top ten list, baby! the music is definitely something you'll get used to, and I mean really used to! Also, it's got the actuall 'chores' of the game. You name a game ('sides THE SIMS) that has responsibility and 'in-game chores'! It's intense, though it's content is roughly basic, it takes more skill than you know!
THE BAD: Nothing bad, 'cause this game is rockin!!!!
SUMMARY: Yea, like I said. the game is INTENSE! No prob in the beginning, hehehe... NO!!! All the way, intensity at it's finest.
So you gots the graphics, and you're diggin' the sound. And the responsibility is just your style, so, it's da best game!!!! Boo-yah for HM: FOMT!!!
THE GOOD: what other people already said and read the comments for fun ideas and a tip to change the weather to a bright sunshine.
THE BAD: -your character can get tired fast if u only have 1 power berry. -this game might bore you when you have everything of course I have everything exept the seaside house because I don't have a gamecube.
SUMMARY: I think this game is great, you should get it I give it 4.5 because it can be boring at the end but you can start again. better and may be twice richer than before. Anyways some fun Ideas. I don't really work that much in my farm, well in the beginning I did but when I got to second year I just made the sprites work all week and I do get my cash. if you do get them to work, you can do anything. I played with my dog 3 times a week, I mined to level 100 below(mining is boring), I go around the village with my horse. ok well here is the tip for always sunny day. IF YOU HATE STORM read this!!...
THE GOOD: Just abuot everything. And the fact that you can live the way you want.
THE BAD: The glitchs. I also dislike the fact that there's no game guide. But as to that you can get tons of info online.
SUMMARY: This game is one of the best there is. I personly like this game because you play a role. If you buy this game and are having trouble getting money. You should collect the stuff in the woods and beach. This game is one I have multiple copies of, I like it so much. ;-) This game is very compilcated though so if you don't like hard games don't get it. But otherwise it's really really cool. The best thing is that you can do just about anything you want. And the music's really cool. The music is different for every season. And the holidays are great. There's at least four holidays in every season.
THE GOOD: Get married have a kid have lots of animals Have a kichen be every ones friend Plant things like flowers Ride a horse live life on the farm Can drink alchol
THE BAD: Can only get married by the 4th year Time passes really fast Theres rivils for each girl but not for the hrvest Godess Kid wines to much cant get drunk can get realy boring but if you play it after 7 days you live it agian.
SUMMARY: I love this game for my GBA. Theres lots to do. Take care of chickens cows you dog and a horse and sheep. Built up money get a wife. Sort of feels like real life. name your farm your self. Stay up till 6:00AM. Have little spirits help you. Ship things for money Read books. See people a different times. See stores close up at 5 PM. i like how the stores are closed on Sunday. Oh friday the 13th you cant watch the news. Awy buy this game it Very fun.
