Intro Hello everyone! I'm Cat, and I'm here to inform you on a very intriguing game, Harvest Moon. Now Harvest Moon is just addicting, turn on the 64 and you'll be on it for hours. It is not the shoot-'em-up game or the quest for the damsel in distress. Natsume makes everyone become down to earth with this game, down enough to smell the sweet odor of cow dung. It is truly a very interesting simulation and everyone should give it a try. I know I'm not the best, but I have gathered info from all around and feel that others should know it. I've covered most of the game and there are still a few mysteries, but in time, those will be revealed. This is a pretty good guide for beginners and such. I have the complete recipe, photo album, and power berry list, I believe the first to be published. Have fun reading!!! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.) Story You are Jack (default name) and have inherited a broken, deserted farm from your Grandpa.

There is only one authentic thing he sells you, which is at the Flower Festival. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5.) Animals You are allowed to have 6 chickens, 8 cows, or 8 sheep, or a combination of both. You have a dog and a horse. Here is summary of all the animals and how much profit they will make when they are full grown, and all the other necessary items. I'm using good ole algebra. Dog- You have him since Day 1. He likes being fed, by putting anything in his dog bowl. He will enter the Dog Races. If you call him, pick him up, and feed him all year he will have a greater chance of winning. Also putting food in his bowl the day before the race will increase your chances. He may have puppies with Taro, depending on how good of friends you are with the Potion Shop family. He doesn't like being outside when it rains or snows, so keep him in while the bad weather is outside. He can be out in the Winter, but just don't keep him out when it snows. If you whistle for him, then get on your horse and make him chase you, you'll be killing two birds with one stone, for the horse and dog get exercised No Profit Horse- Can get him anytime during the First Spring he's free, but you will only be able to get him then. When he is a colt, talk to him and brush him (when you buy the brush). When he is older, he'll have saddlebags, and you can ride him. The saddlebags are like mobile shipping boxes, face him with a veggie and press A and it will automatically be put in the shipping box. Riding him and brushing him all year will better increase your odds to win. Strategies for the Horse Race are in the Calendar section. No Profit Chickens- sold at 1500G at Green Ranch. You only need to buy one chicken, then put the eggs in the incubator to hatch chicks. You have to feed the chickens Chicken Feed, which costs 10G per bag. To make sure you are feeding the right bin, face the bin and click A and it will give you the name of the chicken. If you put them outside, then you don't have to feed them. Keep them in a fence, but take them in when it's raining. They can die so be sure to take care of them. Chickens do not get sick but can get in a bad mood and will not produce eggs. Their eggs sell for 50G 6 Full Grown Chickens Unit Price: 50G Maintanence: -10G Subtotal:120(50x6)=3600G Negative Income: 3600-(120x10)=2400 Total Profit:2400G Cows- sold at 6000G at Green Ranch. Will give you four different milk sizes: Small 100G, Medium 150G, Large 300G, and Special 500G. You can only get the Special if your cow wins the Cow Festival. There is conflicting opinions about getting your cows pregnant. The Magic Potion is 3000G, and will impregnate your cows. Your cow will be pregnant for 21 days, and will give you smaller milk. The calf will take 21 days to grow into cow. It is actually more economical to just buy the cows at 6000G, BUT your cows will not like you as much. The cows you give birth to are easier to handle, give bigger milk faster, are more likely to win the Cow festival, etc. I think that you should buy one cow and just give birth to the rest, because it's easier for me. Also do a little family tree thing like Bessie gives birth to Tess and Tess gives birth to Jesse, the calves whose mothers were born at your farm are even better. I suggest you have six cows. *8 Full Grown Cows (Maximum) Unit Price: 300G (assuming all have Large milk) No Maintenance Total Profit:120(300x8)=288000G *6 Full Grown Cows Same Unit Price No Maintenance Total Profit:120(300x6)=216000G *4 Full Grown Cows (Minimum) Same as above Total Profit:120(300x4)=144000G Sheep- sold at 4000G at Green Ranch. Take about 21 days to become full grown. You cannot breed sheep, just cows. They give you wool every 7 days, a week essentially. The wool is priced at 900G for Regular and 1800G for Quality wool. In order to get your sheep to produce Quality wool, just brush them, talk to them, take them outside, and feed them all year round; after a while they will start to produce it. You make more money by cows daily milk (if it is large) than the sheep's' wool once a week. Sheep are fun to raise though and your father gives you a better rating if you have 4 of each. I suggest you have 2 sheep. *8 Full Grown Sheep (Maximum) Unit Price:1800G No Maintenance Total Profit:17(1800x8)=244800G *6 Full Grown Sheep Same thing Total Profit:17(1800x6)=130600G *4 Full Grown Sheep (Minimum) Same thing Total Profit:17(1800x4)=122400 *Your animals will not produce anything unless you talk and brush them every single day, there is no other way! Don't try to shirk it. **You can bring both sheep and cows outside, but you need to have your grass at it's full height (when it's ready to be harvested), or they will get sick. Put a fence around your pasture, or your animals will wander around and will be very hard to round up. Do not leave them out in the rain or forget to feed them, or they will become sick and eventually die. It is harder to take care of them all if they are outside since Time is running, so let them out once a week. You feed them grass or fodder, which is harvested when you cut the grass. The fodder in the barn comes from the silo. Make sure you harvest enough grass to feed the animals through winter, if you can't go buy animal food from Green Ranch. Mountain Animals- Here are all the animals I've found in Moon Mountain. Monkey, Rabbit, Snake, Fox, Squirrel, Cricket, Dragonfly, Butterfly, Stag Beetle, Locust, and the *Pika Bunny. *Look in Calendar ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6.) Item List This is a list of all the regular items in the game, if you want to know about the special items look in the Secret section. Leveling Up- To level up an item, you must use it a lot. Only some of the items level up. There is a trick to leveling up your items: use them inside. This levels them up but doesn't take anytime, and the only thing you have to worry about is your energy. I suggest you do this at night after the day is done. To use a 2nd level or 3rd level tool just hold the A button longer and the character will demonstrate that he is going to a higher level. WARNING: the higher the level the more energy you use so use the higher levels wisely. For example, don't use a 3rd level hammer on a small stone, use a 1st level. Tools Ax- used to cut wood. Has three levels. 1st level: it takes 6 chops to cut wood. 2nd level: it takes 2 chops. 3rd level: one chop. Do not point this at animals. Hammer- used to destroy stones and boulders, and broken fences. 1st level: takes 6 blows to destroy boulders, 1 blow for stones. 2nd level: 2 blows, 1 blow. 3rd level: 1 blow each. TIP: If you don't want to waste energy, just throw the small stones into the pond. Do not point this at animals. Sickle- used to cut grass, weeds, and plants. 1st level: cuts one square. 2md level: cuts 3 squares. 3rd level: cuts 9 squares (all around you and the one you are standing on). Do not point this at animals! Hoe- used to till the ground so you can plant seeds. 1st level: tills 1 square. 2nd level: tills 3 squares vertically in front of you. 3rd level: tills 6 squares vertically in front of you. Do not point this at animals! Watering Can- the last one that can level up, waters your produce. 1st level: waters one square. 2md level: water 3 squares horizontally in front of you. 3rd level: waters a whole 3x3 square in front of you.

Plants a 3x3 square of seeds on tilled soil Moondrop Seeds- 200G at Flower Shop, a flower. Same as Pink Cat Mints. Vegetable Seeds- will give the specific prices of seeds in the walk-through.

Stuffed Horse- 1000 Medals at the Horse Race, sits on top of the Room organizer. Lottery Prizes- tablecloths, decorations, a mug, pink cat seeds, fodder, etc. Win in the lottery, *See Calendar.

Calendar A list of events throughout the year, which will happen every year. Photo Album is after this. *Picture* means that it is a part of the Photo Album ~*Spring*~ 1st- New Years Festival. All day, go to Town Square. Every time you talk to someone you must have a drink [how horrible ;o)]. If you are after Karen, you can impress her if you out slug her (she'll get drunk and leave). Tips on how to prepare in Girls section 1st-10th- Library closed, starting 2nd year 1st-30th- You can get your horse only in the 1st year 8th- Sowing Festival. If you are King, you will go up in the balloon. You choose an assistant to go up with you. You can only signal the balloons in the first year. *Picture* 15th- Daddy comes home!! That is, Popouri's dad. He'll introduce himself 16th- Deadline for Entering the Horse Race. Ann's Dad will come and ask if you want to enter your horse. This is a good time to ride your horse one last time. 17th- Horse Race. The first year you can't enter your horse, because it hasn't grown yet. Go to the Town Square as soon as you are done with your chores, the first race starts around 7 am. Here are the strategies: to win the race, you can do several things. Some say that you should tap the A button like this 1A1A1A1A, every other second. Others say you should wait for seven seconds then start tapping like heck. I like the first one, but your horse will lose it's speed so whatever your strategy don't wear the horse out. You can bet on horses, I like to bet on them all, while putting more medals on the horses with greater odds, of course this was when I had 100,000G. Bet all you want on the horses with the best odds, then press B like you cancelled the order, but they still will be present as a bet (strategy by Watsonz). I like Tieoha, Star C, Taraba, and Guard. You can win a new stable with 3000 medals, a stuffed horse at 1000 medals, and a sustaining carrot at 500 medals. *See secrets to know more about the carrot *Picture* 18th-Cliff comes to your farm. He will ask for food give it to him, so keep something in your rucksack. 18th-22nd- Vote for the Flower Princess. Self-explanatory. Go to the Town Square to vote, vote on the girl you are chasing, she may have a chance to win. 22nd- Popuri's B-day. Give her a flower for a present 23rd- Flower Festival. Whoever got the most votes will be the Goddess. You can't dance with your girl if she is the goddess but do compliment her. The Goddess will dance with the King. After they announce the Goddess, you can choose a dancing partner. You can buy a bottle, pink cat mint seeds, and a power berry here. *See secrets for info on the power berry. 26th-Summer- You can buy the Blue Mist seed, starting in the 2nd year. ~*Summmer*~ 1st-30th- Blue Mist Flower. The Blue Mist seed can be bought at this time. You will plant it in the Goddess Meadow (*see Map), Popouri will tell you how to take care of it. It will bloom at one time and the rare butterfly will come and see it. The Entomologist will take a picture of this event. *Picture* 1st-Fireworks. This is at night. You want to spend your time with the girl you like. They will tell you where they are going to be if you ask them. Elli is at the bakery, Ann is at Green Ranch, Maria is in the Town Square, Popuri on Moon Mountain, and Karen at the beach. If they like you, they may ask if you want to light fireworks with them. 2nd-30th- Hurricane Season! Watch the weather channel every single day in the summer. The hurricane will not be on a festival day though. It will destroy some of your crops, your fence, and your greenhouse. Unless you have the Invincible Katori and Turtle Figurine (*see Secrets) 1st-10th- Library Closed (not sure) 7th or 8th- Bamboo Boat Float. At night, must be married to do this, your wife will be standing outside waiting for you. Say yes you want to go, then you'll go to the river. You'll have the option to wish for Animals, Family, or Weather. One of the first festivals your kid will be at. 9th- Vegetable Festival. You must save a vegetable from spring to enter this contest, unless you have a greenhouse. You need either an eggplant or tomato to win; I haven't won it yet. The Potion Shop owner usually wins. 14th- Ann's birthday! Give her wool, eggs, or anything else 17th- Firefly Festival. At night on the beach. If you give Rick a moonlight stone sometime before this day and he'll have a firefly lantern for sale. If you are courting Maria, you can do something special this night. *Picture* 24th- Sea Festival. This is where you compete in a swimming contest. They talk about timing, but disregard that, just push the A button like crazy and as fast as you can. Kai or Gray usually wins, if you win though you get the Invincible Katori (*see Secrets). After that, you win regular prizes like a month of fodder or 5000 pieces of lumber. *Picture* ~*Fall*~ 1st- Elli's Birthday! Give her milk or eggs! 1st-10th-Library closed (not sure) 1st-30th- Essence of Moondrop. Elli may come over at some time in the evening and ask to do this with you. *Picture* 1st-30th- Keifu Fairy Dance. Karen will come over some time in the evening and ask you to join her. NOTE: you must have restored the vineyard to do this (see Secrets). *Picture* 2nd-4th- Cow Festival. On the 2nd, Kent will come and tell you which cow he thinks will win. Listen to him, the cow he chooses pretty much wins, so on the 3rd when Ann's dad comes give him the cow Kent chose. Nothing much here, you get to talk to everyone and then the winner will be chosen. Yours hopefully, if your cow does win then it will start producing Special milk. *7th of Fall*- Karen comes and asks you to see the Keifu Fairies. I'm unsure of this date, someone gave it to me saying that she would come. You must be there before 6:00 or she won't come. *10th of Fall*- Elli comes and asks you to do the Potion. Same thing applies here, same person gave me the information. Again, you must be there before 6 o'clock. 10th-Full Moon. Now I'm not sure if you do this when you are married or if you can still do it when you are not. It's only happened when I was married. Your wife will be waiting outside for you at night. She will ask if you want to go see the full moon. You can go if you want to. This is another festival where your kid will be at. After the Full Moon, you can go get the Berry of the Full Moon Plant (*see secrets). 12th- Harvest Festival. You want to go to this!!! They will be choosing next year's King, which you want to be. Now the choosing is totally luck, either you get the coin in the cake or you don't. The girls may have cooked something up, so test it. To Popuri's dish say it tastes strange or she'll get mad at you. If you are King, you get to participate in the Spirit Festival. ***Strategy*** (thanks to Trev79), there is one way you can become King. It is based totally on luck, but there is a way you can be King every year. Save the game, 2 to 3 days before the festival. Go to it and if you aren't King, reset it, and try again. Every 4th time, you are chosen as King. Another thing, do not save on the day of the Festival, because the King is chosen as soon as you go to sleep. 20th- Egg Festival. It's like an Easter Bunny thing, try to find the eggs. Very easy since you are the only person competing although if you don't do anything someone else may win, like Jeff. The first year you get a Power Berry, the 2nd year you will get a Turtle Figurine, see secrets to see what it does. After that, you will get wood, fodder, etc. 23rd-27th-Bridge Repair. The Head Carpenter will come and ask you to help him. You earn 1000G every time you work, a very easy way to get 5000G. Work ends at 3 o'clock, just go there around 1 or so. After it's done you can go up to Moon Mt. officially, even though you could just climb that tree to get up there. In appreciation of your help, they will give you some lumber like 10 pieces. 27th-Deadline for Fall Horse Race Entry. 28th- Horse Race. Same as the Spring, hopefully you can win it. 30th-In the first year, Ann's Dad will come and ask you if you can take care of some cows. You should do this if you have enough fodder; he'll give you 3 cows that will stay for a week. Make sure above all else that they do not fall sick, and brush them and talk to them too. After you've looked after them, he'll give you 2000G. He says he may need a favor in the future, it hasn't happen to me but that's because my barn is full. ~*Winter*~ 1st-10th- Library closed. 1st-30th- Pika Bunny. Ann will come over in the daytime and asks if you want to see a curious animal. *Picture* 10th- Thanksgiving. The girl who likes you or if they all like you, will come over and give you a cake. Stay home and wait for them, it will make them like you more. When you are married, your wife will give you a cake in the kitchen around 5 to 7 p.m. 8th-30th- Mine Open to Public. This is where you can mine for things. If you don't have a greenhouse then this is the way for you to make money. Once you go in you can't come out until 5, so make sure you are ready. 11th- Maria's birthday. Give her a cabbage. 12th-16th- Work on Mountain Spring. The Head Carpenter will come and ask for your help again. You'll be building where the 3 tree stumps are. After you are finished, those stumps will be gone forever, and all the goodies you could forage there. I hope that you used that place a lot, wood will be slow coming in from now on. They will pay you 1000G a day again, and will give you some more wood. The spa will help you a lot through out the game, will keep you relaxed. *Picture* 18th- Deadline for Entering Dog Race. 19th- Dog Race. I hope you have been giving your dog attention, or else he'll lose. Use the strategies I told you about in Animals. There is a strategy to winning the dog race, that some one told me. Even though you don't have to do anything in the race, if you push the A button rapidly while your dog is racing, he'll speed up and get in 1st or 2nd place. The prizes are: Awesome House 3000 medals (it's a cool dog house), Moo Moo Clock 1000 medals (changes your clock on the rucksack screen), 500 lumber pieces 500 medals. I like Maron, Bisch, Karin, Wonder, and Koshi. *Picture* 24th- Starry Night. This is one of the sweetest holidays in my opinion. It is where you get to spend the night with the girl you love. Karen is at the beach, Popouri in the woods, and Elli, Ann, and Maria inside the church. 25th-29th- Raffle. Talk to Greg and Lillia and they will enter you into the lottery. If you win, you get a decoration. 27th- Spirit Festival. Unless you are King or if the King asks you, you will watch the festival. You need to buy the Ocarina (see Secrets) to do this festival at all. Here is a mystery for you, who is the person behind the mask? 29th- Karen's birthday! Give her berries, grapes. 30th- New Years Party. Go to the bar and Ann and Karen will be there, though Elli, Popouri, and Maria are at church. After that, the girl you like may ask you to watch the sunrise with her. Photo Album- These are listed in no particular order, just all put down. I tell you how you get the photos too. I'm still not sure about the Girl pics, whether you are able to get them if you are married or not (or the girls for that matter). I also know that it may take a year before the pics will happen. For example, the year after the Vineyard is restored then Karen will come to you. I'm still trying to find that out but if anybody knows the answer to that question, please tell me. 1. Wedding Ceremony- get married 2. Baby delivery- get your wife pregnant (*see Girls) 3. Rode a balloon- must be the King not the assistant 4. Horse Race Champion- win the horse race 5. Swimming Champion- win that race 6. Dog Race Champion- same thing 7. Completion of Hot Springs- help out at least one day (the last one) and go up to hot springs, preferably help them all the time 8. All building extensions- get them all 9. Sightseeing with 3 girls- 1st win the cow festival, then let your cows out and the girls will come and ask to take a pic 10. Blue Mist event- already described in Calendar 11. Firefly Night- must be on good terms with Maria (red or yellow heart), will come to you at night a few days before the Firefly Festival (or after, or even on the Firefly Festival) 12. Essence of Moondrop- the same with Elli, Fall evening, wait at your farm for her to get you 13. Pika Bunny- same with Ann, during the Winter, she will come and take you in the morning 14. Keifu Fairy Dance- same with Karen, MUST restore the vineyard, Fall evening 15. Party with Everyone- must be friends with EVERYONE, married, house has all extensions, have a kid, then there will be a party at your farm (that means Cliff, Karen, and Kai are still around) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8.) Map I'm not a good drawer, but I can point out where everything is as we go through the various areas. I'll use the cardinal directions to help with locations; North is the top of your TV screen. I'll also be using left and right but this is meant towards the character not you, like to the character's left is the shipping box. I'll be listing when the shops are opened and closed in here too. Your House- From entering the house, you are in the main bedroom. To your right is your toolbox, where tools are stored. When your hands are full with tools, every tool you buy will be shipped to your toolbox. You can trade tools by pressing A on one item and pressing A on the other item. To your left is a cabinet, when you buy it. You can store things like flowers, stuff from the mine, and wool, anything that is not food. In the corner is the bed. Above the little nightstand is your calendar. Your TV has 4 channels, C^ is the weather channel C> is the Events channel (monthly, gives the dates of festivals) Cv is the Educational Channel (gives advice on farming) C< is the Entertainment Channel. To the upper right corner, the stairs will be built. In between the toolbox and stairs is the Invincible Katori. The baby bed will be underneath your bed. There is a table in the middle of the room. The Farm- From the starting point on the 3rd of Spring. Your house is behind you, the doghouse is on the right, and the shipping box is on the left, the Buyer will come on 5 o'clock to pick up anything. The mailbox is right next to the entrance of your farm. The Field is that big patch of dirt on your far left. There is a row of buildings on the northeast side of the farm, a line of buildings. The first building is the stable for your horse, the second the barn, the third the silo which holds 999 amount of fodder, the fourth the chicken coop, and the fifth the lumber stack which holds 999 pieces of lumber. The pond is following, with your only tree in the corner. The Crossroads- I call the place that is outside the farm the crossroads, because you can go many places. Green Ranch is to your left (from the entrance), the path to Moon Mt. to the right with the Vineyard forking from it. The town is ahead; the left is to the lower part of town, the right to the higher. Green Ranch- This screen also leads you to the beach, by taking an immediate left as soon as you go onto the screen (character's left). When you go into Green Ranch, the shop is on your left, it is open from 8 to 5 and closed on Thursdays. To your right is a house that is vacant, Ann and Gray go there when it rains. If you go further down, next to the house is an opening to the pasture, go in there. On the southwest side, you will usually find Ann and Gray walking around. The Barn is directly in front of you. Vineyard- When you walk all the way up to the entrance, the Wine cellar is on the left and the house is on the right. Kai and Karen's Dad are usually near the house. When it rains Kai will be in the Wine cellar, and Karen's Mom and Dad will be in the house. Straight in front of you is the vineyard. In the North, in the corner, is a dead tree. If you go into the Wine cellar, if you have the bottle, you can get free wine from the barrels. Moon Mountain- As soon as you enter the screen, you are in the fisherman area. There is a bridge leading to the Carpenter area on your left. The fisherman's tent is on your right with the Sea Imp pond behind it. A good fishing spot is to your left. If you go straight ahead, you'll climb up this path to the 3 stump/hot springs area. Cut up the stumps while you can until the carpenters start building the hot springs. To your left is the bridge to Moon Mountain, go up that. Follow the path to the restaurant and Moon Mountain. The restaurant has the hours of 9 to 5, but they don't sell you anything. Further up is Moon Mountain, nothing special really. Go back down to the area where you can cross the bridge, instead of crossing the bridge go to the edge of the mountain. Go up to where a tree top is close to the cliff, press A and you will jump down. You are now in the Carpenter area. To your right is the solitary tree which can be climbed on with the A button, behind you is the cave. In front of you is the carpenter's house, which is open 8 to 5 and is closed on Tuesday. If you go straight down, the bridge to the Fisherman area is to your left, and to your right is a path that leads to the Goddess Meadow. Head back to the cave entrance and go inside. If you go straight ahead, you'll meet a Sprite, if you go behind him there is a hole in the wall, press A to go in. You are in the Sprites' room. Here there are two other sprites. Go out and to your right there is a door. This is the entrance to the mine. Now get out of the cave and head towards the Goddess Meadow. When you enter it, the Goddess Pond is to the right of the little bridge. Flower Bud Village- Higher- So take the right fork in the road, this will lead you to the busier part of town, which you will visit more often. From the main path, I'll list the stores on each side. On your right side is the Flower Shop, which is open from 9 to 5 and closed on Sundays. On your left is the Cake Shop, which is open from the same times and is closed on Monday. Further along the road, the church will be on the right, same hours, never closed though. Continue down and to the right is the Inn/Bar, which is open from 6 to Midnight and is closed on Sundays. To the left are two shops. The one closer to Town Square is the Tool Shop, which is open from 10 to 6, and is supposed to be only closed on the weekend (including Friday), and Wednesday, Rick doesn't always have it open though to the frustrations of many. The other shop, which is closer to the Cake Shop, is the Souvenir Shop, this is where Siabrasa is, and it is open from 9 to 5 and closed on Mondays. Straight ahead of you is the Town Square, which is always open, but is used for Festivals. On the lower path, there will be two small bridges that will lead to Lower Flower Bud Village. Lower- Taking the left fork in the road, you will enter the housing area. On your right is the Potion Shop, which is closed on the weekend (Friday it is open), and is open from 9 to 5. Further down is the graveyard to your left and the Midwife's house to your right. Go further down and to your left is a path to the Mayor's house and to your right is the Library, which is open from 9 to 5 and closed on Mondays. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9.) The Walk-Through Objective: Well, these are the things I want you to have by the evaluation. Friends with everyone, all the buildings the carpenters build, all the girls have red hearts for you, married, have a kid, 8 cattle, 6 chickens, all the power berries and all the recipes. I'll describe my strategy. The first year is the survival year, which is mainly where you are trying to get cash and at least your girl. The 2nd year is the Social year. I'll explain more when I get to each year. I have something to say about your birthday, place it in the Winter or Fall. If it is in the Spring or Summer, people won't give you a birthday present because they don't know you enough. You can place it in the spring and just not marry until after your birthday in the 2nd year. ***IMPORTANT TIP*** Now, say you missed some crucial event with your girl, or a festival, or a typhoon for that matter. There is a way you can go back and start over. This is by backing up you game. On the menu where you select the game, you want to play, go to button that says "Move". Then select the file you want to 'move' (move as in copy), then select another file to copy this one too. Be aware that any data you have on the file you are replacing with a copy will be lost. You now have a backup of your game. My advice is to make a backup every week, to be on the safe side. Believe me, it will save your skin. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FIRST YEAR ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This year I have objectives for you. I'll tell you what generally should be done in each season and maybe a brief touch on the daily schedule. I'll include the money you get from all the items of that season, etc. The main objective for this year is to get married to the girl you are chasing, and have enough money and wood for a greenhouse. I have a few more objectives: befriend Karen, Kai, Cliff, the Sprites, and Elli's Grandma. These people can leave the game but most importantly, they have recipes you need. Also, wouldn't it be nice to have them around town anyway? Please take a look at the Girl section so you know who you will start courting and how. +++++++++++++++++++ SPRING +++++++++++++++++++ Mainly here is your schedule: Water/Harvest Plants, Feed Animals; in the morning; Forage, chase girl; in the evening/afternoon. The main accomplishments for this month is: get your girl's heart to a blue, get Karen's heart to a blue, befriend the other people, and at least have one chicken. You will be using cabbages right now, and only those, yes, I know there are recipes to collect but that's for next year. Cabbages: Seed Cost 200G Potatoes: Seed Cost 200G Turnips: Seed Cost 200G Unit Price 90G Unit Price 80G Unit Price 80G Growth 7 days Growth 6 days Growth 4 days Veryberry: Unit price 40G Medicinal Unit Price 70G Edible Unit Price 30G Fruit: Number of 4 Herbs: Number of 3 Herbs: Number of 2 3rd Day of Spring- Take the tour with the mayor, after that is done go to the Flower shop and buy one pack of cabbage seeds. Next go to Green Ranch and get your horse (just enter the pasture). Go to the field, and start tilling a 3x3 square adjacent to the shipping box. After that is done, plant your seeds then water them. Next go to the Vineyard, and you will see a little fight, then leave. Go to Moon Mountain and get as much stuff as you can: 1 flower, 1 edible grass, and 2 veryberry must be saved not shipped. Give the Sprite the edible herb beside him. The locations of the berries are: fisherman, Hot Spring/3 stump, carpenter, and Goddess Meadow. The edible herbs: cave and fisherman area. The medicinal herbs: cave and Goddess Meadow. By this time, it should be night, if it isn't go back to your farm and destroy boulders or stumps (leave the little stones alone for now, I have a tip about them). When it is dark, head towards the Bar. Give the bartender a berry, this will become a regular process, so always have a berry when you go to the bar. Go back to your farm, do whatever until it is 9 or 10 PM. Don't forget to talk to your horse. Feed your dog that herb in the morning. Follow this schedule. In the afternoon, give Karen a berry. As soon as you can plant 1 more field of cabbage 4th through 16th- Go to the Sowing Festival, and signal the balloons. You should have 2 fields of cabbages that are being harvested soon. Keep to 2 fields mainly because watering takes so much time (that's until you get to 2nd level). You should have gotten the Old Wine from the Bartender right now (if you have been shirking, shame on you). You should have been giving him berries for the past 13 days, if you haven't then start right back up. It may be easier to give berries to Karen too at the bar (if you are not chasing her). I know it may take a little more time that you don't have, but you need to befriend her so she won't leave! Don't forget about Kai, if you can, give him lots of gifts and he'll marry Karen, which will keep them in place. You should have around a 1000G by now, or at least hopefully. There is no need to go to the Horse Race, since your horse is still a colt, and you can't be spending your money so freely. Try to buy a pack of grass seed, if you have more than 1000G. Plant it next to the entrance to the barn. Leave a space on each side, so it should look like this, x equals grass, - equals space. ---- ======== xxx- Barn =xxxxxx- Barn xxx- =xxxxxx- Entrance xxx- =xxxxxx= ++++++++ I have the ideal place for a pasture, right next to the barn. You need to make a fence for 2 3x3 squares side by side, straight down the field the field (look at the 2nd figure, = means stone, + means to continue to the bottom of the field). Your goal is to have a huge pasture by the evaluation. Don't use lumber for the fences, use stones, so you won't waste energy destroying them and you will never have to fix them (since lumber deteriorates after time). Leave gaps in between the stones every 5 or so, so you can skip across the pasture if need be. (place lumber in those spaces.) Now you don't have to waste lumber anymore. 23rd of Spring- Go to this Festival. See if your girl is Goddess or not (pros and cons). If she is then you can't dance with her unless you are the King, but you can compliment her. If she isn't then you can dance with her, dancing with a girl raises their feeling level towards you. At this festival you want to buy the bottle sold by Rick and the Power Berry sold buy the Salesman. If you don't have enough money to buy the Power Berry (1000G), then there is always next year. If you are faced with the choice between the bottle and the power berry, get the bottle because you can store medicine in it. They will both be at the Flower Festival every year until you buy them. 26th-30th Spring Try to buy a chicken during these dates. Though save enough money to buy at least two bags of Summer crops. Don't forget to keep a vegetable in your rucksack for the Vegetable festival on the 9th of Summer. Completions: Hopefully these are the things you have completed: get your girl to a blue, get Karen to a blue, get Kai and Cliff as friends, have at least one chicken, the Old wine, and a bottle. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SUMMER ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Objectives: Your schedule is the same with caring for animals in the morning. The objectives are to: get your girl to a green heart, get Karen to a green heart, win the Sea Festival, win the Vegetable festival, and have a cow or a sheep. A strategy for your crops is to buy at least two bags and then after they have been bringing in income, buy three more (believe me that's plenty). NOTE: Edible Herbs and Medicinal Herbs are in all the seasons except Winter. One of the most IMPORTANT things this month is to give Elli's Grandma a walnut so she will give you a recipe, before you do that go up to Moon Mt. via the tree and give the Old Lady a edible herb. Tomatoes: Seed Cost 300G Corn: Seed Cost 300G Unit Price 100G Unit Price 120G Growth 9 days Growth 9 days Walnuts: Unit Price 70G Tropical Fruit: Unit Price 40G Number of 2 Number of 2 1st-13th of Summer You want to buy one bag of tomatoes and corn. When the money starts rolling in from foraging, buy two more bags of tomatoes and one of corn. The first few days are slow, except maybe the 1st. If the girl you are chasing likes you, she will come to your farm and tell you where she will be. During these slow days, spend them with your girl. Also, work with either Karen or Kai, Kai to get them married, or Karen to get her to love you. I want you to work her up to a yellow heart by the end of the year so she won't leave so soon. The walnuts are found next to the river on both sides, the tropical fruit is near the solitary tree and up in the 3-stump area. Start chopping wood when you go foraging, this will become a routine so get used to it. Use this planting field for corn and tomatoes: X X XXX XXX 13th-30th of Summer You should have enough money now to buy a sheep and a cow, go ahead and get them. You don't need the milker or the shears until they are grown up so don't worry about that. Before the Sea Festival, go to the Goddess in the morning (do nothing and go and see her at 9 o'clock, remember NOTHING), toss a veggie in, and wish for strength. If you listened to me and did what I said, she'll give you a Power Berry. Try to win the Sea Festival, if not, no big deal. The Invincible Katori does help though, and is crucial for the protection of your greenhouse. You should have your girl's heart to a green. Good job! Keep on chopping wood, hopefully, you will be able to build a kitchen by the middle of Fall. Completions: Got the recipe from Old Lady and Elli's Grandma, was able to get your girl to a green, either get Kai married, or get Karen to a green, and have at least 150 pieces of wood. Your watering can should be at its 2nd level, in fact all of your tools should. If they aren't just bang them around inside and use them to get experience. <><><><><><><><><> FALL <><><><><><><><><> Objectives: Get your girl's heart to a yellow, get Kai and Karen married (or get her to a yellow), have the baby's bed, bathroom, and kitchen. Become good friends with Cliff, win the Horse Race, become King, win the Egg Festival, and have two more cows. For the cows, buy one and impregnate the one you already have. Same schedule, don't forget to fish a little. Cutting grass is important right now, make sure you have plenty for your cattle. Chopping wood is important now too! Chop as much as you can. Planting veggies won't get you many cash, but plant two bags of eggplants. Save up on your girl's favorite gifts for the Winter, and a few treats for your dog. Eggplants: Seed Cost 300G Wild Grapes: Unit Price 40G Unit Price 80G Number of 2 Growth 7 days Mushrooms: Unit Price 70G Poison Unit Price 30G Fish: Little:30G, tiny Number of 4 Mushroom: Number of 2 Medium:100G, red Big:180G, blue House Extensions: Kitchen.....5000G/450 Wood Bathroom....3000G/300 Wood Stairs......2000G/250 Wood Greenhouse..30000G/580 Wood Log Terrace.7000G/350 Wood Child's Bed.1000G/150 Wood 1st-12th of Fall I doubt that your cow is big enough to enter the contest, but go to it anyway to earn points with the townfolk. I hope that you have been chopping wood this whole entire time and have enough money and lumber to buy the kitchen. You may have had the luck of being King too, good job! If you haven't then don't worry, you'll get it some day. The main point of this month is to get those three extensions, and two more cows. Give a Medicinal Herb (if you haven't already) to the Potion Shop Owner, and a Poison Mushroom. This will make him create more potions for you. 12th-20th of Fall For these few days, focus on fishing and getting a small fish and a big fish. Toss them into the Sea Imp's pond and he'll give you a Power Berry and a Blue Power Berry. The Blue one helps you become immune to getting sick when it rains. Don't forget to chop wood and cut grass, and in between visit your girl. Go to the Egg Festival and find at least two or more eggs and you will win. The prize is a Power Berry. Also, try to find the Power Berry on your farm during this time. It is anywhere in there, very very random, so just until away with the hoe. Don't forget to check under your fence. Let your cows and sheep out for the last few days of Fall since they can't go out in the Winter. 21st-30th of Fall This is a busy time. You should go help the Carpenters with the bridge; you will get the money in the easiest way if you help them, 5000G to be exact. By now you should already have your kitchen built and am working on the bathroom. Try to win the horse race, your horse may not have enough stamina but it doesn't hurt to try. Bet on a few horses, and try to get some medals. If you land in the jackpot, save the medals, don't get anything. Use these medals to buy all the lumber you want in the Dog Race (will help because you won't have to chop nearly as much wood to get everything else). By now your cow should be fully-grown, so buy the Cow Potion and impregnate her. The Green Ranch Owner will come by and ask if you can do a favor for him, which is to take care of three cows. Say yes if you have enough fodder to last all the way to the fifth of Winter (when they leave). Completion: You have the three extensions, the girl has a yellow heart, either Kai is married or Karen has a yellow heart. Going to be King, won the horse race, won the egg festival. Restored the Vineyard (*see Secrets), have one sheep and two cows and one coming, and have at least five Power Berries. ******************* WINTER ******************* Objectives: To get married, to get Kai married or Karen to a red, get the recipe from Cliff, to win the dog race, to have all the extensions but the greenhouse, and to out drink everyone on New Years day. Chop wood like crazy this season because the intake will decrease after the hot springs are built (they will replace the three stumps, leaving you with four stumps left). If you don't have the greenhouse, then you have to hit the mines. This actually gives you a good income. The Winter is one of the best seasons for getting cash, since you can get it everyday. The Mine closes at five and you should go there everyday. This might alter your plans for your girl, since you usually can't find them until 9 o'clock. If you can't give them gifts, then go talk to them everyday it helps too. Don't forget to feed your dog with eggs or something, since you should have six chickens by now. Help the carpenters when they ask. Don't forget to give Rick a moonlight stone, Siabrasa a blue stone, and the Potion Shop owner a Pontara Root (found in the mine). Winter is also the busiest season, so try to balance everything out. You don't have to marry the girl, but I suggest you should. She'll have a kid in the second year and it will probably be in its second stage when your dad comes to evaluate you. Buy another sheep, if you want to get a better rating with dad even the sheep and the cows out, four and four. I suggest you do, then just get rid of two of them after that so you can have more cows, or get rid of them all if you don't like sheep. You should have lots of money now, and can start to socialize with everyone. There is one crop you can grow this season but you need the Greenhouse to do so. Strawberries: Seed Cost 500G Unit Price 150G Growth 6 days Iron Stone: Unit Price 100G Moonlight stone: 500G Blue Rock: 700G Rare Metal: Unit Price 1000G Pontara Root: 200G Mining: In order to get the good stuff like the blue rock and rare metal, you must find a hole to the next level. The holes are totally random and there is no sure-fire way of finding them, just pure luck. When you are digging just randomly dig, there is no strategy here. If you get to the 3rd or 4th level down, dig like a mad man, and you may get a very pleasant surprise (*see Secrets). Unfortunately, the game will not let you use a 2nd level or 3rd level hoe, so it's just one square at a time. If you give Rick a rare metal, you will instantly be befriended by him, and he will give discounts to all his items (if you haven't bought them all yet). He will also make something very important in the future, so give him a rare metal. 1st-16th of Winter Remember that you can't let your animals out during the Winter (they can't eat any grass and it's cold outside). Start working on the other girls now, it will help in next year. Don't try to work really hard on wooing them, but stop by sometime. Don't forget to stay home on the 10th, the girls come at different times and you wouldn't want to miss them. The first seven days will be very slow if you don't have a greenhouse. Mainly chop LOTS of wood; try to build the deck (log-terrace) and stairs. Pound the rock that is in the frozen pond of the Sea Imp with a 3rd level hammer and you'll get a Power Berry. Chop like crazy until the 12th, and then work with the carpenters for another easy 5000G. Don't work to hard when it snows, mainly see all the girls and work in the mine, it's really easy to get sick. So if you ever see your character rub his brow, slow down and go to the vineyard to get some wine to ease him back into energy. Buy the Ocarina for the Spirit Festival. During this whole entire season, drink at least two glasses of wine a day (just go to the vineyard early in the morning and drink the wine from the barrel). 17th-30th of Winter Impregnate your other full-grown cow, or at least it should be full-grown. This is a really busy time of year, entire your dog in the race, he probably won't win. Try to get at least 500 medals (restart until you do) so you can get the prize 500 pieces of lumber, which will REALLY help. Go to the mine whenever there is no holiday and chop wood. The Spirit Festival is like the Harvest Festival; you get in by total luck. You only join it by chance and luck so don't worry if you did something wrong, you didn't. Get the recipe from Cliff if you haven't already. Get all the extensions if you can, and don't forget to ask for your girl's hand! She should have a red heart for you by now. When she says yes, the wedding will be held the next Sunday. Don't build the Green house yet, unless you have the Invincible Katori. Completions: You are married, got Kai married, or Karen to a red heart, got Cliff's recipe, 2 Power berries, 500 or more pieces of lumber, all the extensions (note: the extensions aren't that important to complete in the first year but remember to do them by the evaluation), and have at least 3 cows, 1 coming and 3 sheep. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SECOND YEAR ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Objectives: To have the Greenhouse, to be friends with everyone, to have all the girls in love with you, to have all the bachelors married to the girls, to have the majority of the Power Berries, to win the majority of the festivals, to have 4 cows and 4 sheep, to complete most of the photo album, and to have a good evaluation with your dad. Also, have all the tools at third level. +++++++++++++++++++ SPRING +++++++++++++++++++ Objectives: To get your wife pregnant, to have all the Spring recipes (7), the non-season (*explained in Recipes) recipes (10), to befriend Kai, Karen's Dad, Basil, and the bartender (if you haven't already), and the sprites. To get all the girls' hearts up to blue (the ones you haven't been working on), and to get one of the couples married, your choices are: *Ann & Cliff, *Maria & Harris, *Kai and Karen, ^Elli and Jeff, ^Gray and Popuri. * means that this would be the perfect time, because the guys' favorite gifts are around at this time. ^ means that their gifts are always available. To see what gifts they like, and everything else about the guys check out The Girls section. You also want to have at least six bags of each flower planted in your field, and you want to befriend the little kids and their parents/relatives. Try to get your wife pregnant. 1st-14th of Spring Buy the vegetables you need that will get you the recipes and plant them. This year isn't really about money so just grow two fields of cabbages and plant more whenever they are harvested. Take care of your livestock in the morning and the plants and then spend the whole afternoon socializing and foraging. On the first, try to out drink everyone at the festival, it's fun to do, at least it was for me. The only people who give you a run for your money are Karen, the Mayor, and Kai. If you are successful then you will be the only person left in the Town Square. Spend the whole month befriending the sprites, they will come in handy during the summer. Spend this first week on Kai, Karen's Dad, Cliff, and the bartender. You should already have the bartender and Kai as your friends, Karen's dad is the hard one, and he is very gruff. If you have befriended them, Kai will start talking about how he likes Karen; her dad will talk about being calm and talking about Karen; Cliff will start talking about being betrayed and about Ann; the bartender will talk about people and their problems. The bartender also refers to a mysterious 'he', he's talking about Jeff. Notice how they are always close to each other? He also calls Jeff the Master. He starts talking about Jeff's problems: Elli. Go fishing a lot too, especially of the dock on the beach. Elli's Grandma has the possibility of dying from now to the end of the game. When you go up to her she'll start a little sequence and then it will black out and you'll wake up in the morning, she is also sleeping instead of rocking in her chair. She died on the second of Spring in my game; Elli is totally depressed after that. She only was like that for 5 days for me because I made her happy by asking her to join me on the balloon ride (I luckily was King that year). Kent will be really sad too so try to cheer him up. During the second week, buy the six bags of moondrop seeds and plant them on your farm. Stu should come over and say how pretty they are and that you should plant more. Start befriending all the little kids and their relatives. For the Potion Shop Owner, give him medicinal herbs. Give Stu and May flowers, Kent eggs, the buyer anything you have grown, and the midwife flowers. The kids are easy to befriend, just give them three gifts or so. The grown-ups are a little bit harder, keep on giving them gifts until they start saying something more than just their regular small talk. If they still aren't your friends then don't worry, you have until the winter for the Potion Owner, the midwife, and the buyer. A few ways you know that you are friends with the kids, is if you have events with them. Like one day Stu and May will be clustered around a bush and tell you that there is a butterfly trapped in the spider's web, they will ask whether you should let it go or not, say let it go. Another time, Kent will be in your house and ask to stay with you, ask what happened, he'll tell you he had a fight with Grandpa. When he asks you about studying is important, say not always (I accidentally said yes, oops!), then Stu will come and say Grandpa's sick. Another event is that Taro and your dog have puppies, one is given away (not to you) and the other stays with Taro and is named Jiro. 15th-30th of Spring From now until Basil leaves you want to try to befriend him, because he will give you a Power Berry if you do. The next week focus on the guy you're trying to get to marry off, and on the Mayor and his family. The Mayor talks about he being happy when his family is happy. His wife talks about festivals, and gives you good advice Don't forget to work on all the girls. Don't worry about crops that much. Go to the Flower Festival and dance with the girl you want, if you're King, you have the option of dancing with the Goddess or the girl of your choice. Don't forget to buy at least 10 bags of Pink Cat Mint Seeds (this is important). On the 26th, the Blue Mist seeds have arrived go and buy them. This is important with the Butterfly event, since the Entomologist is around this year. Work on completing the objectives. Hopefully you'll get all the girls to blue by now and at least married off one of the guys. Completions: got all the recipes I listed, got all the girls to a blue, married off one of the guys, are friends with the Mayor, his wife, Maria, Karen's Dad, Kai, bartender, May, Stu, Kent, Potion Shop Owner, Midwife, and the buyer. Also, you should have at least six bags of each flower, the Blue Mist seed planted, and at least married by NOW! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SUMMER ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Objectives: All the girls' hearts to a green, another guy married off (try Jeff or Gray), to build the greenhouse AFTER the typhoon, to have the Blue Mist seed event, have your wife pregnant by now, all the cattle, win the Sea Festival and Vegetable Festival, get the 6 Summer Recipes. Befriend the following people: Karen's Mom, Ann's Dad, Gray, Lillia, Basil, and the Pastor. 1st-30th of Summer Yes! I'm putting it all together, don't worry it won't be long, heh heh. This year, buy the same number of bags and save up money for the Green House. Also, start tilling the sole and planting flowers for Stu, if you haven't already. If he hasn't come by, give him a flower and he'll come by the next day. Always watch your weather reports for the typhoon, especially now since you have animals. The sprites, if they are your friends, will come the day before and tell you that they will take care of your animals. Work on befriending the moms this first week and the other dads. Lillia usually talks about the weather, or the season. Karen's mom talks about Karen and often staring out into space. Ann's Dad talks about not expecting so much from you, Ann, and how he feels he's getting old. They will start talking about their kids and everything. Also, work on the people that I mentioned before, if you haven't befriended them. Work on the Pastor too. He talks about the children, and gives advice to you like 'Everybody wants to be kind.' Try to get your wife pregnant if you already haven't been working on it. Work on Rick and Siabara, try giving them the stuff the items that got you recipes. Rick will start talking about himself, his family, and about your items. Siabara talks about very mundane things, but there will be a difference between what said before and after being your friend. As soon as the typhoon is over, build your greenhouse. Then transport all your crops to the greenhouse, essentially buy more seeds. Plant only tomatoes and corn. You can also plant things that can be given as gifts to people. I want you to build after the typhoon because, the Invincible Katori isn't 100% garunteed, but after you get the Turtle Figurine you will be completely safe. Fish the whole entire month!!! Off the dock especially, maybe you could get the Power Berry. If the Blue mist seed is destroyed by the typhoon and you haven't gotten the picture yet, don't worry, just plant it again. If it was destroyed after you got the picture then don't worry. Your wife should be giving obvious hints of her pregnancy by the end of the month. Completion: you know what you need to complete. <><><><><><><><><> FALL <><><><><><><><><> Objectives: Get all the girls to a yellow, marry off any of the guys (now that you have the greenhouse you can plant any crops you want). Work on the carpenters, the fisherman, the Gourmet man (if he is in your game), the old couple on top of the mountain, and whoever you haven't been able to befriend. Give the carpenters mushrooms everyday. Don't buy eggplants for profit!! Remember that you have the greenhouse now with those five great summer crops. Get the Fall recipes (6), and try to buy everything you need. Continue to fish, start cutting grass for winter, buy cakes from the bakery for lottery points, drinking wine in preparation for New Years, and plow your field for that elusive power berry. Hopefully you are friends with Basil by now. Maybe you will be King this year too. I have nothing to say, just follow this routine. Greg (the fisherman) only talks about fishing, he doesn't change that much even when you befriend him, always give him big fish. The carpenters don't change either, they will give you more advice. The Midwife talks about your baby, and how she's really good. The old couple doesn't change that much either, they talk about you. Your baby may be born this season, so be prepared, you'll have to make a mad 50 mile dash to the hospital, actually you'll wake up with the midwife in your house (aahh!!) and your wife's mom (except for Elli and Ann). Completions: same thing as Summer, complete the tasks. ******************* WINTER ******************* Objectives: find the power berry in the mine, befriended everyone by now, got all the girls to red, and that's about it. Win the dog race if you haven't already. Basically just go to the mine everyday, but don't forget to socialize with everyone. If you haven't befriended everyone, don't worry, you still have until the end of the 3rd Spring. Get all your tools to level three. You should have a kid by now, don't forget to give him gifts. Also get all the guys married to the girls. I know I'm a little lazy to not do specific days, but there is not much else to know. Don't forget to get the Winter recipes (4). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THIRD YEAR ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Objectives: To have a great year! And to have a good evaluation by your dad, most importantly watch the credits! You can actually continue with your game just say yes you want to continue at the end of them. I hope this walk- through was helpful. Now we're going to get into the interesting stuff. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10.) Father's Evaluation This section is to help you prep up for your Father's visit. As you should know, it will be on the 1st day of the 3rd Summer. This evaluation is based on the evaluation I got at the end of my game. I hope it helps. It starts with your father asking various townspeople their opinion of you, and he asks the townspeople in this order: 1. The Mayor: He is going to rate the general opinion of the town towards you. If you had become friends with everyone in town, he will make a good remark. So in order to complete this aspect, you must befriend everyone. His comment of me: Everyone respects and trusts Jared. 2. The Midwife: She will rate the affections of all the young ladies. In order to complete this objective, you MUST have all the girls to a Pink Heart. Her comment of me: All the girls have crushes on him. 3. The Potion Shop Owner: He will comment on your general health throughout the years. This one should be easy, just make sure you go to bed early, don't get sick too often, etc. Power berries also affect this, just try to get as many as you can to get a better rating. So watch your health and don't work too hard and you have this one in the bag. His comment: He is strong and healthy and knows how to look after himself. 4. Ann's Father: Based on how you treat your animals and the quality of their produce, he will base his opinion. So keep your animals fed, brushed, and loved and you got his respect. It *probably* also helps to have all the animals producing their finest products. Also having 4 cows, 4 sheep, and 6 chickens will make your father happy. His comment: He has a way of talking from the heart with animals. (!?) 5. The Buyer: I didn't do too well with this guy, apparently he is a greedy blood sucking employee who isn't satisfied with anything. I was a little mad that he still wanted more, even though I shipped him thousands of tomatoes. If any of you get a better comment than me, please tell me, and I'll post your name (must include his comment). Anyway, in order to please him, you must ship LOTS (I mean LOTS) of produce. His comment: I still want him to ship more stuff. 6. The Head Carpenter: Another piece of cake. Make sure you get all the buildings and upgrades. That's all. His comment: His buildings are all perfect. I'm impressed he got this far. 7. Greg the Fisherman: In order to get his approval, you need to fish all the time. He will judge you on how you relax, "relaxing" as in fishing. So make sure you fish on a regular basis. His comment: He seems pretty laid back. (Note: I'm not sure if this is the best comment you can get, if you have gotten better please tell me) 8. Basil the Florist: I'm not sure what the exact expectations of him are, but I bet it's about vegetables ;o). Just make sure you continue to grow vegetables throughout the years, and I'm sure growing flowers helps too. He will probably say more if you win a few Vegetable Festivals. His comment: I would like to give him the 'Green Master' award. 9. The Gourmet Man: This clown will rate you on how many recipes you were able to collect. So just collect all the recipes and you've earned his double-chinned approval. His comment: His recipe notebook is fabulous. I would like to give him the 'Recipe King' award. Now, after you have heard the townspeople either vent or praise you, your father gets to say his piece. This part involves him asking you questions, and based on how you answer them, gives you his approval/disapproval. This is another piece of cake, just use your practical sense and you'll have his instant approval. He asks you about 5 questions, and I don't think I'll need to guide you through them. So after you answer these questions you'll end up next to the deck. Your wife will come down with your baby (if you have either) and will say hi to your father. Then various people will come to celebrate with you. They will come depending on how well you tend your friendships, and I believe the number varies too. Here are the people who came to my party: The Buyer May Kent Stu Karen's Father Kai The Mayor Popuri And then my father said "Is that all your friends?!" and Karen, my wife, says, "That's all for now, but I'm sure everyone else will come later." Then, if you have a child, this plays out a little more. Your wife would ask if you knew what your grandfather wished for you to do. You have the liberty of telling her yes or no. If you say yes she rewards you with a kiss and asks you to tell your son/daughter. So that's what it all is. Not as scary as you think, huh? Don't forget to continue your game after they roll the credits. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11.) The Girls I hope that this will be very helpful for you. I have information on all of them and some personnel experience. I give a whole lot of information under each one's name. I liked to say that I don't rate the girls, they are all hard in some aspects, I'll tell you which ones, but other than that they are all great, it's your preference that matters. First of all, there are many things in common with all of the girls. They all get sick at some point in the game (usually when they have a green or yellow heart). There is also a Dream connected to each of them. You are some how supposed to be connected to their past so yes when they ask you about it. They all sprain their ankles too, even if they complain about you carrying them home, deep down they like it, but if you call for help, your heart rating will decrease. They will all give you birthday presents on your birthday. I stress that your birthday be in the Fall/Winter/Spring. That will give you enough time to get birthday presents from them (Spring being the second year), the best one though, is Winter. They will give you a birthday present only if they have a red heart for you. Every time you dance with a girl, it halves the remaining amount of points to get to the next heart rate, so basically it fills half her heart. If they like you enough, they will send you letters. Wishing to the Goddess for Love helps too; the girls will like you much much faster. At some point, the girls will ask you themselves if you like them or not. Here are the hearts: White= Indifferent Blue= Friendly Green= Flirtatious Yellow= Enamored Red/Pink= In Love Karen I know the most about her. She loves berries, any kind, strawberries, veryberries, and wild grapes. She does not like your dog, cakes, or flowers. She loves to dance, so always ask her to dance at the festivals. She works at the bar at night and lives in the vineyard. She is usually found at the vineyard, the beach, the woods, and the bar; sometimes she just disappears. Her is a schedule sort of goes like this Sunday at the beach, Monday at the vineyard, Tuesday the woods, Wednesday the vineyard/beach, Thursday the woods, Friday the vineyard, Saturday the woods/beach, and Sunday the beach. She is usually at the bar each night. When it rains, then you can't find her (unless she is sick), but she will most likely be at the bar at night. It helps if you befriend Kai, because she will like you more. Restoring the vineyard is a great way to change her heart levels. Her dream sequence is like this: a little girl runs away because her dad is mad at her, she is locked in some room, someone else is in there, they find a hole, and he walks home with her. After you have this dream sequence head toward the vineyard and go to the Wine cellar. She will be in there and ask you if you want to take a tour, agree, when you come back up to the first floor the door is locked. She will say she is hungry and will be rude to you, after a while her dad will let you guys out. BUT that's not suppose to happen, if you search the upper right corner in the first floor you will find a way out. Karen will ask you if you were the same person, who helped her out years ago, say yes, and you will improve your heart rating. She is very nice once you get to know her. If you marry her, she'll pack the eggs up. If you don't marry her, she will leave in the second year of the game (that is if she is indifferent), but if you restore the vineyard, she will marry Kai. Where she is when she sprains her ankle is under the solitary tree. Only talk to her once, in the beginning, or she'll get mad at you. There three events that happen as you get close to her, the first day you go to the vineyard she will have a fight, another time she will be at the bar with Kai and sleepy, and third she will be at the vineyard. She comes over to your house to test her wine, and she likes to see you working. During the Fall, she will be at the vineyard most of the time until the harvest is done. She likes when you drink her under the table at the New Years Festival. She is pretty hard to get since she can be almost anywhere, but you should be able to find her most of the time. She will give you a lucky bracelet for your birthday. Her Birthday is the 29th of Winter. Ann She is a very funny person. She is also depressed in the Fall, I'm trying to figure out why at the moment. She loves wool and your dog. I've heard that giving her small animals help but they don't help that much. She also likes getting eggs and milk and seeing your chicks and chicken. Her brother is mean to you, but just ignore him. Winning the horse race makes her happy. She can be almost everywhere, and like Karen, is very hard to find. Usually she is always at Green Ranch, on Thursdays she is at the solitary tree or in the cave. Sometimes she can be found at Rick's shop (the few times when it is actually opened), or at Karen's house, because they are best friends. When she sprains her ankle, she will be right in front of your farm. Her dream sequence is about birds, go to the solitary tree and answer her question by saying yes you were that person from long ago. She too gets sick, usually when it rains. In the beginning, bring your dog to her everyday. When you get a chicken, bring your dog to her and an egg. When you finally get a sheep, bring it's wool to her. She is always in good spirits, unlike Karen. I say you can pretty much always find her at the Ranch, the hardest thing about her is her gifts after all the wool is expensive. She is in that house next to the Green Ranch Shop when it rains. Though your dog really helps. She can't cook at all, which is funny, because they have many events about that and little things. If you don't get her, Cliff will. She gives you Hand-knitted socks for your birthday. Her birthday is the 14th of Summer. Elli She is the sweetest person in the game. She loves your dog, eggs, and milk. She also likes it when you buy her sweets, but that doesn't give you as much as an effect as the other things. She loves fish too. Her dream sequence is about a boy and a girl making mud-pies and eating them. Go to the bakery and watch the kids (talk to them?) or to the midwife's house, the kids are at one of those places. She will come and talk to you. In the beginning of the game, bring your dog to her and some fish if you caught some. When you get the chicken, give her eggs. If you give her golden milk for a while, she will increase her heart rating rather fast. When she sprains her ankle, she will be in the fisherman area next to the little path to the river. Her grandma dying really upsets her and it takes a season or two before she becomes cheerful again. Though if you do something major with her, like riding a balloon with her, she will get over it in a week. She is found most of the time at the bakery or outside in that yard. She can also be found over in the flower shop. On Sundays she totally disappears, one time though, she was there helping Ann cook, it was funny to listen to. She is found in the woods on either side of the river, on Mondays. She is in the shop when it rains. She is very predictable, but her gifts are sometimes expensive. She gives you an Embroidered handkerchief. Her birthday is the 1st of Fall. Popuri She loves flowers!! Give her flowers for her gifts. Your dog works too and so does strawberries. Popuri is found outside the shop, at the bakery, in the woods, at Green Ranch, and on top of Moon Mountain. Planting flowers at your farm pleases her too. When flower season is about to end, during the summer, collect flowers and put them in the cabinet (room organizer). Many people have boasted of getting her heart to a red by the end of Summer. Her dream is about flowers and falling. When you have the dream go to Moon Mountain, and search at the Hot springs area, the place above the carpenter area, and at the very top of Moon Mountain. She'll fall and you will save her. She will about to fall from the top of Moon Mountain near the solitary tree. You are supposed to climb up it and rescue her. She trips too, though I'm not sure where. Try the moon mountain area, look at the Goddess Meadow or near the solitary tree. On Sundays, she is usually at the bakery or at Green Ranch. If she isn't outside the shop, go check the Moon Mountain area. She is in the shop when it rains. She is one of the easiest to get, because of her gifts and her locations. She will give you Potppuri for your birthday. Her Birthday is the 22nd of Spring. Maria I have to be honest, I don't know that much about her because she isn't exactly in my taste, but I do have information on her. She loves cabbages! So plant a lot and give them to her. She is afraid of your dog, so don't try to use him as an icebreaker. She is a total sucker for Sam's (Samuel) products, and usually buys them. She likes it when you check the books and come talk to her, she also likes bugs. Stag Beetles are in the Hot Spring area, Ladybugs in the carpenter area, a beetle in the carpenter area, crickets in the fisherman area, dragonflies in the fisherman area, and butterflies in the Higher Flower Bud Village. When the library is closed, she is usually next to the church, or in the woods (Goddess Meadow, carpenter, and fisherman area). She sprains her ankle at the library. Her dream is about a book, head towards the library when you have it. Instead of talking to her, pick up the book and tell her you gave it to her. There is another event with her that can increase her heart rate. One day when you go to the section of the town where the potion shop is, the mayor and his wife will talk about getting ripped off by Samuel. Go to the crossroads and Maria will be talking to him and give him a gold pendant. Tell her you don't know if he's happy or not. The next day you will get the pendant, give it to her and her heart will increase. Her birthday present is a book. Her Birthday is 11th of Winter. The Courting There is no right or wrong way to court the girls. Just give them gifts and talk to them. Seeing them everyday helps too. In fact, that is the only rule, to see them at least once a day. Choose your wife carefully because you will be stuck with her. I believe that all of them are great! Marriage and Happily Ever After Don't think now that you're married that you don't have to give your wife gifts, you're wrong. She doesn't like it when you talk to the other girls and the only way to pacify her is to give her gifts. If you don't give her gifts, her heart rate will eventually decrease too. The MOST IMPORTANT reason to give her gifts is to get a kid. She will become pregnant if you shower her with love. Or as Kent put it, "The girl has seeds in her stomach which sprout when you show that you love her, am I right?" Therefore, you must continue to give your girl gifts. If she slinks down to a blue heart she will leave your house and go back to her own. During this time all the other girls disappear, you must go talk to her and bring her back. You cannot divorce her, so choose your wife carefully. Your wife also helps you with your chores, not all the time and not all of them either. Here is what they do: Karen: pack the eggs Ann: feed the animals, pack the eggs, and feed the chickens Elli: pack the eggs, feed the chickens Maria: crates eggs, weeds gardens Popuri: water the plants, feeds chickens There are 4 stages in your wife's pregnancy. The each month, the day after your wife's wedding, she'll go into the next stage (ex. Married the 27th of Spring, every 28th she'll go into the next stage). Your child shall be born three seasons after you are married. The first month after you are married she will work herself up to pregnancy. Your wife will get cravings when she is in the very beginning of pregnancy, for example, Ann wants to eat fodder [ ;o)]. Elli will talk about how big she is getting, Karen talks about eating something sweet, and Popouri and Maria say things out of the usual. In the 2nd stage, they will be having those cravings. In the 3rd stage, they will give obvious hints. They will also talk about reading maternity books, getting morning sickness, eating too much, and their relatives coming and giving them food. The last stage goes all the way to the anniversary date, and your baby will be born the day after, but before that they talk about the baby(so using the example before, my kid should be born on Winter 28th). They will then start talking concretely like "Our baby gets nutrition from my body", etc. The pregnancy lasts for 2 seasons, though it depends on how many gifts you give her. So, continue to give her gifts, which you should be doing anyway because you love her, right? NEVER EVER dance with another girl, your wife will get really really mad. On your birthday, she will have a feast for you. Go from 12 to 7 o'clock to the kitchen. When she asks you what day it is, you better know that it's her birthday. Give her something, and I think she may have a feast for you to eat too. Your wife may be jealous if you give gifts to other girls (heard Elli is like that), even if you give her gifts too. She will also start decreasing her heart rate. As long as you give them all gifts, she won't mind (there are exceptions). Your wife will also work harder depending on the time and your love. They won't do those things every day, but they will gradually do more and more. Popuri, for example, will begin only watering like 5 squares, but if you keep everything going, she can be watering about 30 in a year. Babies Well, the day that your baby is born, the midwife will be by your bed and so will the girl's mom. You are told to leave but you can't leave your farm, the big pro-wrestler-looking buyer is blocking your way. Just do your daily chores and come in at the time the midwife gave you. I have a funny suspicion that your kid will be a boy! I think it is programmed like this, sexist Natsume, lol, but if you have a girl tell me. Your kid has 7 stages of growth, which take twenty years to complete, yes yes I know that kids don't take that long to grow but in this game they do. No I haven't gotten that far, but my fellow fanatics told me since one of them has had a game for that long. The only stages I know of are the blanket stage, crawling, and talking stage. Eventually he is supposed to help you around the farm. You must interact with him too and give him gifts. My advice is to use your dog! That is the best way, since you only have to show him one thing to make him happy. During the blanket stage, he is wrapped in a blanket and usually in someone's arms or the bed. To give him a gift, hold your dog up against the bed and click A and the baby will say Kya, Kya or use eggs. This might not always work, I've had hundreds of broken eggs around his bed because he won't accept them. The way you know that he will accept the gift is when the gift is in his shadow. Pick him up and carry him around a lot. After he has been in this stage for a season, he'll start crawling and will take gifts much more easily. You will notice his outrageous costume for the first time, it's cute and stupid at the same time, more cute for me though. You can still carry him around too. He will get a fever or the measles or whatever during this stage, you'll wake up to him crying and have the option of calling the girl's mom, the midwife, or the potion owner. They do it free of charge, I got a potion from the owner. He will stay in this stage until he turns one. Then he will actually start walking upright and crawl a tad, but mostly he will be talking. He can say Daa, and stuff like that. That is as far as I have gotten, I heard he stays in that stage for a couple of years or so. Now there is something important about the kid, you must give him gifts and carry him around (when possible). Your wife will complain about you not helping with the baby and may leave because of that. While it is an infant, carry it everywhere, which will greatly please your son and your wife. When he is past the stage where you can carry him, bring him gifts all the time. The Neighborhood Kids All the married couples will give birth to kids, who will grow up with yours. I think that all the kids are boys except Popuri's. They all have their own little costumes too, the ones I know of is Ann & Cliff's is a lizard, Karen's & Kai's is a mouse, Elli & Greg's is a chicken, Popuri & Gray's is a bunny, and Maria & Harris's is a panda. Tell me what the other costumes are if you can. Stu, May, and Kent will grow up. If you haven't noticed, Stu and May have this little thing going. Puppy love!!! How sweet! Anyway, they will grow up too, and I'm guessing that those lovebirds may get married, but I'm not sure since I'm not that far in the timeline. I also know that some of the kids may have different costumes (Karen may have a cat). Also, different people may have girls. The Bachelors It is your duty to get the guys married, one because you will become their friends, and two because your kid will have friends. There is one challenge to this: the girls, if you have them all up to reds and yellows, it will take the guys longer to ask the question. I believe that you should work on the girls first and then the guys. Either way, you want the guys to marry the girls. Harris likes potatoes, Jeff likes milk (give him golden milk and he will ask her sooner), Gray likes eggs and your dog, Cliff likes berries, and Kai is like Cliff. You know you are their friend, because they will usually talk about the girl they like. Cliff will start talking about being betrayed and Ann. Jeff will start talking about a variety of tea and Elli. Gray will only mutter a little more like 'Weird guy' and saying he's sorry when you give him gifts. He also will talk about hating your horse, because he can never ride horses anymore (he was injured some how, Rick tells you if you are his friend). Harris will start talking about how he loves giving letters to people and 'connecting them' as he put it (I think he reads the mail) and of course about Maria. Kai will start talking about Karen, and grapes. To see your progress in befriending them, go to the bar, they are most open there and will talk about their feelings (Gray actually says a whole sentence or two). After they get married, they will get the girls pregnant on their own accord, but talking to them helps. The pregnancy applies to them too, it will take 3 months after they are married for them to have a kid. The bar will be empty now, after they all are married, except for the bachelor who didn't get his girl (the one you married), the Buyer, Ann's Dad, Basil, Karen's Dad, and of course the bartender The couples are, if you don't already know: Cliff and Ann, Harris and Maria, Jeff and Elli, Gray and Popouri, and Kai and Karen. It is good if you become friends with the guys, because a few of them are hard to befriend, actually about two are. Kai's marriage has a requirement: you must restore the vineyard. He will not marry Karen until you do that. So make sure you restore the vineyard. Now there are important clues on whether or not your guy is marrying. Each guy and girl have a movie (event), that is triggered to show you that they will marry in 1 or 2 weeks. Their events are Jeff and Elli: Fishing, and Jeff gets wet (there is another event, and I'm not sure if it triggers it: go to the bakery, Popuri will be there wanting something to eat. Elli talks about how she wishes she wasn't plump and Jeff says he likes a girl plump and Popuri laughs at that). Popuri and Gray: growing flowers on Green Ranch. Maria and Harris: Harris gets a letter from Maria. Ann and Cliff: Fight over if Cain (his bird) eats a rabbit or not. Kai and Karen: I don't know, it would be helpful if someone told me [hint, hint ;o)]. It will happen after the vineyard is restored. This can be both good and bad. Good because your efforts are almost a success, and bad if you are chasing after the girl yourself. If you have backed-up the game, then restart from there and don't befriend that guy. To be on the safe side, never talk to the guy who could possibly marry the girl you are chasing after, BUT talk to him after you marry your girl. I think the cutest couple is Elli and Jeff, they are really sweet to each other. One time, Elli says she's glad she is married and all she has to do is have a baby. Jeff blushes and says 'Uhh Elli', and she laughs. Gray is actually a very nice person once you get to know him, he actually starts saying nice things, like congratulating you when win the horse race. Your Birthday- On your birthday, from noon to seven p.m., your wife will have cooked something for you. It will all be in the kitchen. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12.) Secrets This is for those of you who don't mind having a few things in the game spoiled, if you want to find out everything on your own, then skip this chapter and good luck! I abhor gameshark!!!! So, don't try to give me any info about it or ask me any questions about it. I've collected a sizable amount of secrets on here. Many of them don't fit into any categories, but I will give the ones you want to know. Power Berries: Power Berries increase your energy, so that you can last longer during the day. This is very helpful when you have 24 fields of tomatoes to water, 8 cows to tend, and a field of hay to cut. As you can see, the power berries are very convenient. 1. Randomly found from plowing your field (dig up every single square till you find it) 2. Throw a big fish (blue) into the Sea Imp's pond 3. Fishing off the dock (must fish off the dock a lot) 4. During Winter, break the boulder across the pond with golden hammer 5. Randomly found from mining on the 3rd or 4th floor in the mine 6. Throw a crop into the Goddess pond and wish for strength from the goddess (must not use any energy, go straight from bed to her pond and wait till 9) 7. Give a marble to the sprites/elves/dwarves 8. Buy it for 1000G from Samuel the con man at the Flower Festival 9. Win the Egg Festival for the first time 10. Become friends with Basil and he will come to the farm and give it to you. Questions on the Power Berries: I have no doubt that you will wonder how to get some of them, I'll give you a brief on the ones that will cause the most confusion. 6. I'm serious about this one! Take a veggie from one day, and leave it in your rucksack for the next. As soon as you wake up, run out the door and head towards the Goddess Meadow. At 9 o'clock, throw a veggie in the pond and wish for strength, she'll give it to you 7. The other confusing one. The story is like this, the sprites lost their marbles. In order to get them back you must plant at least six bags of each flower during the summer and spring. Stu will come and ask if you want to trade a flower for the marbles. If you aren't friends with him yet then he won't come, give him wild flowers, then one day he will come to your farm. After you get the marbles, go to the sprites, and go talk to one of the ones in the sprites' room. It will give you a power berry for them. Blue Power Berry: Throw a small fish into the Sea Imp's pond. It will give you a blue power berry, which keeps you from getting tired in the rain as easily. Orange Power Berry: I have heard rumors about this orange one. Haunter120 is supposed to have information on it in his faq. Recipes: Now I've heard many things about recipes. I know that there are only 35!! That is because Natsume verified it! Now I'm not sure what their purpose is, many people say they are for collecting, others for you to cook. I have had a rumor that your wife will actually cook for you, when she talks to you in the morning. She must have the ingredients and then she will cook it. Now I do not know if this is true or not, because the person hasn't replied to me. I personally believe that it is just for collecting and to impress your father (the more recipes you have, the better). 1. Cream of Turnip Stew-[Sp] give a turnip to Maria's mom 2.

If you have an item, that I don't have, please email me. I'll give you the item and its purpose, if it has any. Treasure Map- found underneath the tree in your farm. Gives directions to a music box not a power berry! It says straight from the doghouse until you see a tree to your left, well, the only tree in your farm is the one you found the treasure map in. So stand on the side of your doghouse, and face the field. Dig where the tree and doghouse intersect. For example, you know Battleship, right? D4, miss, F8, hit! This is how you find the music box, dig 10-15 times where the tree and doghouse intersect. It is helpful if you grab a piece of lumber, and put it about seven paces from the tree. I'll explain what to do with the Music Box in its section. Music Box- it is rusted up when you find it, but Rick can fix it. He will only fix it when you buy everything from his store, then he will fix it. Turns out the music box has a love song on it. Next time you talk to the girl you love (or any of them), they will mention it and will talk about some memory. You have the option of giving it to them or not. Give it to the girl you love, it will increase her heart rating. Old Wine- get it from the bartender by giving him wild grapes or veryberries. If you give him these gifts, after a week or so he'll give you the wine. You have the only bottle left, and it is called Door to Heaven, or Heaven's Gate. Now, I believe that you can only get this when you are not married! So, do it at the beginning of the game before it's too late. Now this item will trigger a set of special events that I will explain in another part of the Secrets section, look for the title 'Restoring the Vineyard'. Raffle Tickets- Nothing much here. You can get a raffle ticket from the Bakery and the Flower Shop. Every time you buy a cake/pie/flower seeds 1 point is added to your ticket. 10 points equal one lottery ticket. They will give it to you the first time you buy a cake/flower seeds (moondrop). Pink Cat Mint seeds and Cookies do not count towards points. Enter the lottery at the end of the year, given dates are in the calendar, depending on how many points you have, the better the chance of winning. Could get two special items. Bag for Medals- this is the bag you put all the medals you won at races in. It will give you the amount you have, it can be empty at times. Get it the first time you win medals. Sustaining Carrot- won at the Horse Race for 500 medals. It says it tames wild horses, I think it makes your horse run faster. Maybe it has a purpose later. Moo Moo Watch- yes I know it isn't really a special item, but it does need to be explained. Won at the dog races for 1000 medals. Changes the tile that holds the time and date to black spots on a white background. Ocarina- buy from Siabrasa who has it around the beginning of Winter. It can be used in the Spirit Festival, if you are picked to play. The cost is 2000G, I think. Now someone says that there is a purpose to the birthday presents. Feel free to believe it or not. Fortune Bracelet- given to you by Karen on your birthday. Is lucky, she will only give it to you if she has a red/yellow heart. Can only get it when you are single. It will make you have less hurricanes. Others say it prevents earthquakes. Hand-Knitted Socks- given to you by Ann on your birthday. The same thing applies to Ann, who must have a red/yellow heart for you and you are single. It will help you from getting sick so often. Potppuri- given to you by Popouri on your birthday. Same thing. More energy for you, or makes your vegetables grow faster. Embroidered Handkerchief- given to you by Elli on your birthday. Same thing. Animals produce better products faster. Book- given to you by Maria on your birthday, is above your bed. Same thing applies here. People in town like you more. Kazimidori Weather Vane- Found on the third or fourth level in the mine. It has a specific name, but I can't remember what it is called. Give it to Rick if you want to be nice, he will mention it and ask you. Firefly Lantern- give Rick a moonlight stone when you mine in the winter. The next summer he will have it for sale. I don't have the price yet. Golden Pendant- If you are trying to woo Maria, you will see a certain scenario and end up with this pendant (see the Girl section for more details). You are not suppose to keep it, but to return it to Maria. Super Fishing Rod- apparently you may be able to get a Super Rod, I haven't but I have heard a rumor about it. Give him the Jumpers, they really make him happy. Giving him other fish and flowers work too. Invincible Katori- there is a dispute over this item. You win it at the Sea Festival, and it stays in your house. Many claim it protects your greenhouse, other say that's a lie. I have to agree with the latter, since they have substantial proof that it is nothing. One of them emailed Natsume, who said that the Invincible Katori is just a trophy. Turtle Figurine- This does protect your greenhouse. Win it at the Egg Festival, 2nd time. It sits on top of your TV. LOTTERY PRIZES BAKERY: 1st Prize-Tablecloth-A Blue and white tablecloth that goes in your house(Bedroom) on the table. Put a Blue Vase on top of it. 2nd Prize-Mug-A white and blue mug that goes on your kitchen table. 3rd Prize-Dish(Luncheon Mats)-Mats that go on your kitchen table. 4th Prize-Honey-Fills your empty bottle with honey which completely restores your strength (Very useful). FLOWER SHOP: 1st Prize- Cushion- I don't know 2nd Prize-Flower Bath Crystals-Makes you recover more strength when taking baths. 3rd Prize-Flower Seal-Makes more symbols appear on your calendar(flower, star, etc...). 4th Prize-Pink Cat Mint Seeds-Gives you one box of Pink Cat mint seeds. That is all the items I know of. If you know of anymore please tell me. 11th Power Berry? Now I just found this out but I'm not sure if it is real. Bring your kid to the sprites, and they may give you a power berry. I'm not sure if this is real and if this happens in its 1st or 2nd stage. In fact, this may be a lie, but could someone check this out? Berry of the Full Moon Plant- found after the Full Moon event. It can sell for 300G, but be careful, it only grows once a year. Some people have found two. Can give it to the sprites, but they will not do anything immediately. Might as well since it will probably help in the future. Jumper- a black fish. You cannot sell it, but you can give it to people. I haven't caught it myself, but Haunter120 was kind enough to give everyone info on it. Catch it in the Spring of the fifth year around the 9th at the river only. Stay up and fish between 5:30 am to 9:00. You will get it, he says to keep it. In the fifth year, the fisherman will ask to stay on your farm. He will ask for the jumper, give it to him, and supposedly, you will have lots of good luck, etc. Not only that, but you can catch another Jumper in the 10th year. Give it to the fisherman, he will talk about how rare it is and go immediately to his tent. Maybe if you give him enough jumpers, he will create a Super Rod [exaggerating ;o)] Restoring the Vineyard- first, you must get the Old Wine from the Bartender. If you are friends with the sprites they will mention the wine and tell you to go see the Goddess, who won't fix the problem until after the sprites mention it. When you toss a veggie into the pond, you will have the option of restoring the vineyard. Make sure all your work is done before you see the goddess because as soon as you are done restoring the vineyard you go straight to bed. She will take you to the vineyard next to that old tree and you guys will restore the vineyard. During the next Fall, harvest time, she will come to you in a dream and congratulate you. Channel 4, E Channel, Entertainment Channel- No one knows how to make anything show up on this channel. There are of course rumors, but I have no further information. Time Portal- This is an actual thing! Give Rick a rare metal at least once a year. He'll say he needs it for some experiment, and he does! One day he will come to your farm, asking to test his invention. He'll ask for some crop, give it to him. The contraption will make it disappear! After that, he leaves saying he still has to fix a few bugs. I believe that he will keep on working on this thing. Many people say it helps you stop time or something, or teleport around the farm. These are rumors I've heard, but that is an actual event! The experiment is real. I have a theory too, every year if you give him a rare metal; he will improve his invention. That is after the experiment and maybe he will eventually give it to you. There are different dates when he comes, but one is the 1st day of Summer in the 6th year. 3rd Goddess- There is rumors of a third goddess. The two goddesses already known is the Goddess in Goddess Pond, and the Sea Imp. Hole in Sprites' Room- You can never get into that hole!!! Don't try! It is a tunnel that connects to your barn! The sprites use it to feed your animals during the typhoon, if they are your friends. ***2nd Album Pictures*** Now this has been copied from Haunter 120's FAQ. I do not know if this truly exists, but if the info is there, why not post it? Now there are some things in here I do question like the Grandma pic. Decide for yourself about this, I can't say I have much advice on this matter. If anyone successfully completed this, please tell me. To get the second album you need to collect all the pics in the first album then if your real good friends with the harvest sprites they will give it to you...here's the pics Men's Night Out- Give an egg to Gray, the Priest, and Rick School's In- Become Great friends with the Priest and your son must be walking. Anniversary Celebration- Give the correct juice to your wife on her anniversary. (don't ask me, I didn't write it) Day in the City- You must have stopped Karen from leaving by her having a pink heart. Now your Cooking!- Elli must be on a pink heart. Give her an egg. Friends Forever- Throw a strawberry in the pond and wish for peace. Horsing Around- Give Ann your horse's calf when your horse has it. Angel's Grace- Buy the perfume from the Goddess. Goodwill Towards Men- Become great friends with Basil and take the fall for him. Bookland- Have Maria on a pink heart and read the fairytale book when she offers it. Field of Flowers- Grow 10 squares Pink Cat Mint flowers and have Popuri married to Gray or you (but she must be married) Grandmother's Funeral- Keep Elli's Grandmother alive by making friends with her and she will die in Winter once you get the 2nd album. Grand Birthday Bash- Be the Harvest King and there will be a big celebration on your birthday. Bang!- Become great friends with Kai and you'll shoot some fireworks on the first of Summer. Welcome Home- Find your son at the mountain restaurant after he runs away. Working Hard on the Farm- Get the first 15 pictures in the first album and the second album. *all pictures can only happen after receiving the second album. That's all I have for now! If you know anything, contact me. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13.) Greenhouse Effect Decided to add this for the heck of it. This is a plan to use your Greenhouse in the most efficient way, from the type of crops, and what king of field. I have calculations to add for each one. Now depending on if it is a one-pick crop or continual harvesting crop, you shall have a different field plan. For the one-pick use this field (assuming you have a golden watering can) ++++++++++++++++++ :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: W E B x= planting area -= spacing += continue pattern := wall W= watering well E= entrance B= shipping box *All symbols are used in both fields Now the crops that are one-pick are cabbages, turnips, potatoes, and strawberries. If you were to grow them year round, you would make a certain profit. I'll talk about that later, but first the planning for the Many- harvesting crops: tomatoes, corn, eggplant. :----------------: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :x----xx-xx---xx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :x----xx-xx---xx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :x----xx-xx---xx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :x----xx-xx---xx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: :x----xx-xx---xx-: :xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-: W E B One-Pick Crops: Now this particular pattern continues all the way the end of the wall. Unless you plan to have flowers there (for those of you who want to keep Popuri happy), I'll talk about that at the end under the title 'Flower Power', no lol, I really mean 'Flowers + Greenhouse= Happy Popuri'. This pattern is planned for a particular one-pick crop for the whole year. This is how much it would cost to supply yourself with seeds for a year: Cabbages:200(17x24)=81600G 408 bags of cabbages Potatoes:200(20x24)=96000G 480 bags of potatoes Turnips:200(30x24)=144000G 720 bags of turnips Strawberries:500(20x24)=240000G 480 bags of strawberries Total profit= Cabbages:17(192x90)=293760-81600G=212160G profit Potatoes:20(192x80)=307200-96000G=211200G profit Turnips:30(192x60)=345600-144000G=201600G profit Strawberries:20(192x150)=576000-240000G=336000 profit Strawberries are the best One-Pick crop Many-Harvesting Crops- Now these crops give you more profit, truly they do. But for those of you who like variety, or don't care that much about money then don't worry about this. I must say that taking care of such great a garden will expend a lot of energy, there are 20 plots of land. So choose carefully, and do this in the later years of the game starting around the fifth year. By then, you should have all the Power Berries, which will give you enough stamina to do all the gardening and the rest of your life. The 2nd graph is for the Many- Harvesting Crops. Corn=300x20=6000G 20 bags of Corn Tomatoes=300x20=6000G 20 bags of Tomatoes Eggplants=300x20=6000G 20 bags of Eggplants Total Profit= Corn=26(155x120)=483600-6000G=477600 profit Tomatoes=37(155x100)=573500-6000G=567500 profit Eggplants=38(155x80)=471200-6000G=465200 profit Tomatoes are obviously the best profit maker of both crops!! Flowers + Greenhouse= Happy Popuri- Now you can devote your entire greenhouse, or part of it to Popuri (your wife). If she isn't, but you want to have flowers anyway, just use the last rows of squares as a flower place. Now you can do half-and-half with flowers and tomatoes, and still earn a decent profit (about 283750G). Be creative and create a Flower Maze (as in Hedge Maze). Greenhouse Protection- Now you need the Invincible Katori and Turtle Figurine to be protected. It doesn't hurt to be cautious because there are cases where your greenhouse is destroyed anyway! It is very rare but it happens. I was lucky and found a great strategy when the hurricane hit me (all I had was the Turtle to protect me). I'll let you in. For the two weeks before Summer, go to visit the Goddess every day. Use milk/eggs/veggies to summon her and when she asks to know what your wish is click on the blank spot (it's a hidden Nevermind). She will be all flattered, and will soon become your friend. Then when summer comes wish for weather for the first week of summer, and then the next few Mondays. That should keep your greenhouse protected from typhoons. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14.) Tips/Farming Strategies Always feed and talk to your animals, they are the most important thing compared to plants. Your cattle can stay outside overnight, if they are fenced in and have plenty of food, they can stay outside for days if the weather permits. Schedule your day appropriately. Water your plants in the morning. Chickens need to be fed in a specific bin! This is different from the other HM games. Cut the plant in the middle of a 3x3 square, it is useless and a waste of profit to wait for one plant to grow out. So until you get a 3rd level watering can, cut the middle plant and plant more seeds. The Hot Springs and the Bathtub relieve some of your tiredness, which is very helpful. You can get unlimited milk from your cows by using the bottle. Put the bottle in your hand, stand near a full-grown cow, and press B. This also works with water from your pond, both restore energy. The Sprites are your friends! Try to be nice to them. Never ever use any sharp tools near animals and people. To make your dog run faster, call him, then jump on your horse, and ride around. This kills two birds with one stone, you exercise your dog and horse. The Greenhouse is a wise investment, but make sure you have protection over it. Don't plant too many crops that you can't handle. Flowers please any girl! Never dance with another girl but your wife when you are married! Unless she is the Flower Goddess and you aren't the King. Rome wasn't built in a day, neither was your farm. Use the small stones to build fences. Always talk to your kid and wife. NEVER EVER give weeds or wood to anybody especially your wife. It gets negative responses ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 15. FAQ Q: How Many Years can you play in Harvest Moon? A: I can't specifically say how many years, but I believe it can go on and on. So far the farthest people I know have gotten to twenty years and counting. Q: How do you get your cows outside? A: Use the bell to make them come to you (make sure you are standing in front of the barn's exit). When they reach you, run around them and push them towards the exit. They will walk up to it and disappear. Go outside and you will find them standing in front of you. Push them to your pasture. To put them back inside, push them up to the barn doors. Q: How do I get my wife pregnant? A: Look under the girls section Q: Where is the Town Square? A: climb up the stairs in Higher Flower Bud Village Q: I got my watering can to the third level, but it still only waters one square! A: Hold the A button longer, and your character will go through some animation implying that he is at a higher level. Q: Where are the sprites? A: Look in the cave that goes off from the carpenter area, one should be walking around in the upper right corner. Q: Is it good to leave your dog out in the rain? A: No, it doesn't help at all. My advice is to take him in every night. Q: Do you feed your horse? A: No your horse fends for itself. Q: Karen left the game, can I still get the recipe from her? A: No, once a person leaves the game, you can't get the recipe from them. That is why it is important to befriend these people: Cliff, Elli's Grandma, Kai, and Karen. They can leave the game, Elli's grandma will at some point, but the others won't if you befriend them. Q: My wife keeps talking about my baby having a fever, what should I do? A: She is right, your kid has the measles. Don't worry about it, one day you will wake up to him screaming and have the option of calling for someone to help. Q: I have the Invincible Katori and yet my greenhouse still fell down! Why? A: Now your farm will not be fully protected until you get the Turtle Figurine from your second win at the Egg Hunt. Q: Do all festivals end where you go straight to bed? A: Most of them do. Off the top of my head, the Horse and Dog Race don't, but I believe all the rest do. Q: I got Maria to a Red heart and the Blue Feather still won't appear! A: Buy all the items from Rick Shop, also try to wait for 15 days. It may not appear if you have messed with the game with Gameshark. Q: I can't find any of the holes in the mine! Help me! A: I'm afraid to say that I can't help. The holes appear randomly, the best strategy is to dig randomly too. Q: How do you fish? A: Cast the pole with the B button and hold. After a while, the buoy will bob, as soon as it does, release the B button. The faster you release the button the more likely you will catch the fish. Q: What is the limit of grass and lumber? A: You can hold 999 pieces of grass in the silo, and also 999 pieces of wood in the lumber shed. Q: My wife keeps talking about how I should interact with my kid. How do I? A: Carry your kid with you everywhere. Give him gifts too. If he is past the stage of being carried, then talk to him. Q: Elli's Grandmother died, does that mean I can't get the party pic? A: You still can. Don't think of her as someone you must befriend, or the Entomologist for that matter. She is doomed to die :*( so you can't stop it. Unless you never talk to her, BUT if you never talk to her she won't be your friend. Get what I'm saying? If Cliff, Karen, or Kai leave, then you can't have the Party Picture. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16.) Mysteries This is for fun, really.
