While gentler games like Nintendogs and Animal Crossing: Wild World have become the best selling games on the DS, the Harvest Moon series has been ploughing very much the same field for nearly a decade now. As always the game starts with you inheriting a farm and most of the game revolves maintaining and growing your crops of vegetables and herds of animals. You have to work pretty hard at it too, planting crops, watering them and then harvesting them. Animals have to be watered and feed too, eggs collected from chickens, cows milked and sheep shorn.Once you've tired yourself out with your daily chores though there's a whole village to explore around you, as you collect wood to make new buildings or harvest fruit and other rare items to sell at the shop and expand your business. Your main goal in town though is to find yourself a sweetheart and woo her enough so that she'll agree to marry you. As fun as all this is though it's exactly how the Harvest Moon games have worked since the original SNES game and this version takes almost no advantage of the DS. The touch screen is used merely as an inventory and as a means to pet your animals - other than that it's almost entirely superfluous. Even worse, the graphics seem identical to a GBA game and not even a particularly good one at that, with some very poor animation. There are a few new features, such as a mini-casino run by the harvest sprites, but it's not nearly enough to tempt you if you have one of the more recent GBA versions. If you haven't though, it's a reasonable, if unambitious, introduction to the series.

 I'm losing touch with reality! September 2, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought this game wondering what the fuss was about, now I am completely addicted and find myself planning what to do next when I'm away from my DS. It's quite slow to begin with but earning money is so easy. All you have to do is walk round town meeting people and picking flowers and fruits from the community gardens and deposit them in the transport bin. You can also find plenty of materials to pick to make your own buildings. Although the character's stamina is not very good until you upgrade your tools. (You have to gather material from the mine). Plant loads, get the sprite's working for you and the job's a good 'un. The instructions aren't very clear and to start with I felt a bit thrown in at the deep end but read the manual and with a bit of investigation through the net and reading people's reviews all over the place you soon pick it up. Excellent and highly addictive game. 5*'s

I bought this game from another seller because it was cheap and it paid off. I have had hours of fun but it does get annoying when you have to do the same things every day and I can't open the mine. It is hard to marry and the livestock take a lot of looking after. I liked it and it was very easy to use. The graphics could have been better though.
If you want a cheap and fun game get this one. It has no violence
Soooo Amazing!!!! October 2, 2007

This game is fantastic.
There is always something going on,you start off trying to earn money and plant crops. Also you raise baby animals and you can marry and have childeren, but for an adventure there always has to be someone unhappy with what you're doing.The picture quality is good.I love this game and play on it every day. (From Mum: yes, but what about your homework?) So I give this game 5 stars
BUY IT ITS GREAT

Harvest Moon=Awesome February 17, 2008

When I first got Harvest Moon I thought it was going to be a really broing game, completly based around farming and way too easy, but I am very pleased to say I was absolutely wrong.
1) It is definetly not boring, with hundreds of things you can do and even more you have to do it is impossible to say "there is nothing to do"
2) Similarly, Harvest Moon is definetly not completely based on farming. Yes, it's a farming game, but there is so much more to do. You can collect produce, mine, get a wife, help the sprites and so much more.
3)Harvest Moon is also quite challenging. in the first month or 2 when you are struggling for cash, it does get pretty hard, but once you get into the swing of things it does get slightly easier and you can focus on progressing in the game
Basically I think Harvest Moon is the best game there is for DS and anyone at all would enjoy it. You may think it's for babies, but just give it a go and I guarantee you will like it.
