Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town (Game Boy Advance) Reader Review

What a lovely game. The graphics do their job, the music is well constructed if not a little repetitive after 10 game years and the gameplay is deep and rewarding. But getting into the game is difficult and chances are you'll want to give up after a few days gameplay. But this is a game which rewards perceverance, and if you stick at it you'll be immersed in a game world which is hard not to fall in love with. A world with brooding loners, beautifiul women for you to woo, cattle to breed, sheep to shear, chickens to feed and dogs to.....well....lift. You can also mine for ores, spend a day fishing, cook or follow a soap opera (aaron changes is my favourite). This is just scratching the surface though, as you'll know if you've played a HM game before there are loads to do and ample time to do it in (30 game years in FOMT).
I don't want to go into too much detail because half the fun is in succeeding by yourself and exzperiencing the game as you would life so go out and buy it....NOW!
