Once you start, you come to this village.you can't leave it until you have visited every shop and that takes awhile. When you get back to the farm, you can't find anything because you don't know your way around and you can't find the farm map and even if you can find the map, you can't get places cause it is out of order in comparision to the map.you tire out yourself just by walking around and cutting up plants. you can't do anything else. my opinion is don't buy the game. it is a waste of money. very disappointing.

Lame game

this game wasn't too good. when I try to plant whatever i was going to plant i just kept pulling out the shovel and digging. the directions didn't tell me what i needed to know. i do not recommend this game.

I personally thought this game would be fun and a long played out game for road trips, boy was I wrong. Sure it was fun at first, but then you just wait for everything to happen. The message board hardly changes and you do the same thing every day. (That's the game's day) Fun points, It is long and pretty easy. I beat it on on very long road trip. Second, the mini-games are fun. (Better than the actual game)

This games is okay. When you first get the game it is kind of fun but then it gets boring. You do the same thing everyday over and over again. There might be something new everyonce in a while but still it is really boring.

Harvest Moon's great...

Harvest Moon 2 is a great game. You get the plant your crops in the pattern you want them to be in, fish, raise cows and sheep, and choose which new buildings (such as greenhouses, sheep and cow sheds, etc) to build if you have enough money from your produce. In town, there are some events you can participate in, but overall, you farm and farm and farm for money so that the mayor won't turn your farm into an amusement park after the period of time.

It's fun and all...you get to choose what crops for what season (there are seasons, you know) and breed or buy or sell cows and chickens and sheep.

However, after a while it starts to be become rather boring because that's all you seem to do: water and weed your fields, care for your animals, and fish for stuff for the market...that's why I rate it 3 stars.

It's troublesome, but also fun

I've found this to be a really fun game, but at sometimes, it's more trouble than it's worth, it's work instead of play sometimes. Most of the time I find myself trying to please my cows, all the while having to run everywhere I go just to get part of a days work in. Since there is only about 15 minutes a day, it's fairly difficult, but I think that it is worth while! However, even this game has it's rewards.

Saving Problems

This game is soooooo frustrating! Everytime I save the game and not play for awhile, I turn it back on all the saved data is erased! I hope Natsume has improved on Harvest Moon 3!

Well I started out playing Harvest Moon 64 I liked it. it changes every time you play the game. So i Picked up Harvest Moon 2 for the GBC have multi endings. some gamers say they have more than one ending this one does not say that. the problem is you cannot marry and have a kid. this is the draw back of HM2. also upgrading your farm takes longer thats the best part I think. So if your a Vet in the world of sims and whanna play a crossover RPG play this game. but do not Compare this Harvest Moon Game to HM1, HM64, HM Back to Nature.

Really Good, But Not Perfect

This game is excellent! Like all the other AWESOME Harvest Moon games, you take care of animals, go to and enter festivals, and grow crops. I also think the mini games are cool, and I haven't seen them in the other versions, I especially like Whack-A-Mole. The only thing is that you can't get married, you need ALOT of money to get extensions for your farm, and you don't have a rucksack.. that's alot of running back and forth! This game is good, but I suggest you get Harvest Moon 3 for Game Boy Color instead, or one of the other versions for different game systems. Like my title, really good, but not perfect.

Great game, but a little too difficult

It's a great game, like all its predessors. The only problem I've seen is that it is a lot more difficult to make money from your crops. You also have to collect more grass to buy animals. I suggest you buy this game only if you are collecting them, otherwise, you should buy the title for the SNES, N64, Playstation, or PS2. This is because they have far more depth. Such as with the SNES version you can have around ten chickens, while on the gameboy edition you can only have four.
