If youre a Harvest Moon Fan Already, Dont Even Think Twice

I am a BIG Harvest Moon fan, and this surpassed my expectations of a Harvest Moon Phone app version. I heard a bit of criticism before it released about the graphics and things like that, but dont listen to it. If you love harvest moon, played all the DS games, some of the Wii games and the N64 version like I have, you need to get this one too. I also like that theyve made it an incentive to be friends with people by having them give memories. In some of the other games my goal has always been to just get married and build my farm, but in this one there are tons of hidden advantages with getting to know the other characters - and its easier too. Overall, Im just super impressed with how Natsume was able to take the big game of Harvest Moon and make it a phone app that is perfectly fit for mobile gamers, but also attracts Harvest Moon lovers. Even the time spans are just perfectly laid out - days arent too long, friendships dont take that long to make, rewards are random but spaced out perfectly -- its just a really solid game all around. I think the only two things I would criticize are the map and crops - the map is small at the start and I was thinking I might not like the game because of that, but the annoyance didnt last long. Second - it would be nice if there was some crop variation - it gets a little boring just planting potatoes or carrots or something and not being able to look forward to new crops at the beginning of a new season.

But tiny things in retrospect. This game my expectations for sure. It has only been out for a month and Im already married with 5 chickens, the unlocked fields, 2 pets and 3 livestock... And been to the bottom of the mine. So yea, Im hooked! Great job Natsume :)
