Harvest Moon DS: Cute -

Before I get started, just incase anyone that reads this has NOT picked up a Harvest Moon game before... Harvest Moon is a farming simulator with a neo love system embedded into it. Throughout your play, you'll grow crops, raise animals, (in this version) date guys, and move on to have a happy family.
In this game, the Goddess has been punished by the Harvest God for being too lax with her duties. You, as a rookie farmer, have to unseal the cast away sprites and return the Harvest Goddess to her place, all while finally proving yourself worthy to the Harvest God.
Though I've given a brief description, the game play is more diverse and satisfying than what I'm cluing in to. My advice to anyone who has not played a Harvest Moon game and is curious is to just pick it up and see for yourself whether or not it's for you.
Moving on from the introduction...
This is very much like the original Harvest Moon DS released with the male main character, except now you play as one of two girls. There are some added items and the dialogue has changed, but the aspect of the game is still the same, just flipped around.
I was worried while it was being made, weren't we all? When the boy's version was released, it contained so many bugs it was frustrating. Don't get me wrong, this game is not without flaw. It has a few spelling errors here and there, though not enough to bother me or the game play.
As far as the changes go, since you play a girl, the marriage candidates have been switched towards the male spectrum, with more than enough possible bachelors to satiate anyone who has waited for this. Natsume has also (finally) added in a new guy, I might be a bit biased but I'm happy with the add. :)
Continuing on the subject of changes, they've added a wallpaper and flooring system, as well as a clothing change system and a few new events.
All in all, if you're a girl, or just a big fan of the Harvest Moon series, this is most likely a must have for you.

Amazing

This game is awesome. I think it's better then Animal Crossing. There's so much to do in this game. You can play three different card games, fish, mine, dig for stuff, play with animals, grow crops, cook (not like cooking mama style) buy cloth, make friends, get married and a lot more. The grapics are good and so is the audio. In this version your playing as a girl rather then a boy. I think it's a bit more challenging that the previous games especially when it comes to earning the affection and friendship levels. It's a game worth buying.

A must-have Harvest Moon!

If you're a fan of the Harvest Moon series or are just looking into the franchise, I definitely recommend this one. This is the first Harvest Moon I actually tried myself and it officially won me over as a harvest moon fan.

True, it is the female version of Harvest Moon DS but there are many added portions, such as changing clothes to gain more love and friendship points, being able to change your wallpaper, and best of all, none of those really bad glitches from the boy version! Not only that, but there is a new bachelor as well and he alone makes this game worth playing. The mysterious phantom thief is sure to steal your heart! Plus you can connect to FoMT or MFoMT to add the bachelors from Mineral Town to your choices.

Anyway, it's very fun. I haven't finished it yet (I mean, really it's long. It will keep you busy). But stick with it and don't whine about how long and repetitive it is because if you hate sim games so much you probably shouldn't buy this. With fun holidays and things to unlock, the longer you play the better it gets!

Go buy it! Do it! :)

Not the best, but a good one

This is pretty much a girl version of the male version of Harvest Moon DS without the glitches and more story segments. It also has an additional character that more than makes up for the usual play. A thief attempts to steal your heart and he provides a playful quality to the game that has not been introduces with pervious characters. If you're a longtime harvest moon fan, then he is more that worth the money to meet.

The controls are not the best they could be, but you get used to them eventually. Unless you have hours of time every day to spend playing, a player will not discover every secret or get every bonus tool but beating the game and have a good time are manageable.

It is a game that is fun to do, making your farm work, meeting the people and making friends. Finding the elves, some of which are hidden in your pets and watering can. Overall, just something to take your mind off of your day.

Cute & Fun!

Unlike many out there, this is my first game into the HM Series. I've played a couple of them with some friends, but never got one of my own.
After reading about all the glitches in HMDS, I deided to go with HMDS Cute. Plus, I liked the girl aspect of it.
I have to say this game is quite enjoyable and CAN be addictive! Sure it get a lil repetive, but at the same time you can't really get bored since theres so much to do. Yeah finding the sprites can be a pain but most of the sprites are pretty easy to find by just doing the regular chores.
I can see why this game has spawned into so many different series!
Who knew farming could be so fun?

Cool game... But what's with the guys?!

I've been a huge fan of the female Harvest Moon games for about a year now, so I jumped at the opportunity to get one for my sparkley-new DS. I must say, it was just as good as all the other games I got, which is good, but I've only had a few dislikes about it.

1.) The guys are... well... ugly (except the 'bonus' bachelor, Skye, who is amazing ^.^). Not the loveable ones in MFOMT, though if you have that game, you can put it in the DS and they will visit.

2.) You have to save 60 harvest sprites before you can get married. This is pretty hard, if you don't have a walkthrough of some sort. But it's worth it, cause you can have a baby, unlike Harvest Moon: Boy & Girl.

3.) In Harvest Moon: Boy and Girl, there was no penalty if you threw weeds and such on the ground, so I was in the habit of picking up weeds and throwing them. A while into the game, I started to find that nobody's heart level was going up, so I bought the love braclet so I could view the Love Points. As it turns out, people like you less if you throw things on the ground. So don't. ever. litter.

4.) There's only two saving slots, which is a little annoying.

Other than that, it's a lot of fun to play, and I've had no technical issuses or anything, so I'd definately still recommend getting it.

SO CUTE

Harvest Moon Ds Cute is sooo much better than Harvest Moon Ds. This one doesn't have any glitches like the other one does. Plus you get to play as a girl! You can play as the girl from mineral town or the girl from another wonderful life. Get a free cat and dog too! The cat is simply adorable! To get a horse you must ship 1,000 things. Then the horse will be brought to you, as an adult. That means that you can ride it right away too! How fun! You can actually ride it out of town too! Also there is a new batchor, Sky. He is really cute, he reminds me of Sesshormu, kinda. He has silver hair and (unlike Sesshormuru) he is a big flirt. The only thing is that he is a theif. But he doesn't kill or hurt people. He has this beam called "Chick Beam" that can freeze girls! Most girls marry Sky. Aww. I think that he stops stealing after you marry him.

best 30 bucks youll ever spend

where do i start? if you have never played harvest moon: you raise crops, animals and date guys! sounds stupid right? whether or not you'll like this game depends on what kind of person you are. for example: my sister bought this game, she didnt really make a prosperous farm she just played untill she could get married, had a child and then sold the game to me....that is because she is not a true harvest mooner. well in this version you can have cows, sheep, chickens and ducks, and enter festivals! festivals are one of my favorite aspects of this game. dating is probly this most fun thing about this game. there are 6 regular batchelors, and if you put in your mineral town game, you get 4 more plus the thief, which makes eleven. yes i am the same person who wrote the more friends of mineral town review saying how cute rick is and hes still a great husband. having a child is fun but WARNING you must carefully plan the day of your wedding(which acurrs 7 days after proposing) because if you marry on a odd day, youll get a girl, even day you get a boy, which can be difficult when courting mineral town boys. that about sums up this game. EXEPT FOR THE 4:44 AM DOGHOUSE FIGHTING!!!!
when you press A on the useless doghouse at 4:44 am youll battle girls in the mine....it very disturbing, esspecially when karen uses my sweetheart rick to protect herself...youll have to see it to belive me. read freyashawks guide on blogspot....youll see.

Best Harvest Moon Game Yet!

This game I have to say, is the best out of the Harvest Moon games so far. In this game, you can have up to 11 potential bachelors. (If you have one of the Friends Of Mineral Town Games). While trying to save the Harvest Goddess by finding sprites, and while taking care of your farm.

Harvest Moon DS Cute is packed with events, 11 bachelors, a plot, and has a lot more characters then the usual Harvest Moon games. Since the game includes characters both from A Wonderful Life, and Friends of Mineral Town. Most fans of the Harvest Moon games would enjoy this!
