Intros The intros are a part of all of my guides. I use them to give you a quick and simple explanation of what to do with the game and guide. Just to let you know, I dont have a walkthrough in this guide. The reason is that they take forever to write. atleast... the way I do them. A. Guide Here I list the updates and stuff. Not many people read them, but sometimes they can be helpful. 1. Updates 12-30-03= *Started Version 1.0*Finished Version 1.0 *Sent to www.cghm.8k.com/hmworld *Guide posted at www.cghm.8k.com/hmworld* 12-31-03= *Added "Best place for..." section* Added "FAQ" section* Added "A Day In HM" Section* Added "Maps" section* 01-01-04= *Did a quick proof read of the guide * Updated the following sections: Characters, Places, Items * 02-07-04= *Declared guide retired * 02-08-04= *Started and finished the retirement finishing touches * 02-11-04= *Declared end of E.C. * 2. Notes to Reader *Well, the "A Day In HM" section is as close to a walkthrough as I'm going to get! *In order for this guide to be a FAQ, I need to add a FAQ section... SO I DID!!! Check it out. It needs more questions, so email me any you have at Duenos14@aol.com *Normally I use Microsoft Word to write my guides (since it has a Spell Check feature), but since the computer I've decided to use to write them from now on no longer has Word, I am forced to use Note Pad. So I gotta do my own spell check! It took me a while to do it, but I did a quick check for errors. I know I probably missed a few mistakes, so email me any that you spot at Duenos14@aol.com. I found a total of 40 errors in this guide. I fixed 'em all! 3.

Fishing Rod- Give Billy gifts alot and he'll ask you if he can borrow your hammer. If you say yes, when he returns it he will give you the Fishing Rod. Fertilizer- You need a T.V. to get this one. While watching T.V. your partner will notice an ad for fertilizer. They will ask you if you want it. If you say yes, they will order it. It costs YOU not them 49,999g. It makes your crops grow twice as fast. So basically, since you need the T.V. you pay 50,000g (I think) plus the almost 50,000g on the fertilizer itself. So you basically you pay almost 100,000g on the fertilizer. WOW! You could say that It's not worth it, but yeah it really is. Since you spend half the time growing crops, you get more money a year. SO! The 49,999g will pay itself off in no time at all. Of course, I'd wait until after the three years are up. That way you have more money when you get judged or so you can buy animals, so you can boost your farm rating. 2.

A Day In HM Since I no longer do full walkthroughs (I think they are really pointless. This is a farming game folks! Ya don't need me to tell you what to do every day!), I have decided to do a typical day in HM! Its basically a walkthrough of what I do in a game day of playing. For those who read my HM64 guide way back when I had a nearly completed walkthrough, this format will be easy for you to understand. For those who didn't read it way back then: I like to write these in the view of your character. not you controlling him, but the character. For example: "In the morning I had a ltitle breakfast and then it was time for work. I said good bye to Sara (My partner) and Cliff (My pet hawk) and was on my way to work on my farm land!" I really like writting this way, so you can see my real writting style. So in other words, this way has absolutely no stupid commentary from me! ;) "In the morning I had a ltitle breakfast and then it was time for work. I said good bye to Sara (My partner) and Cliff (My pet hawk) and was on my way to work on my farm land! When I got to the field, I noticed that some of my plants were gone. "Must be them pesty crows!" I thought to myself. So after I watered my potatos, I ran over to the village. After talking to a couple of people, I went to the dock. Since it was Monday, Kirk gladly took me to the mainland on his ferry. Kirk sure is nice! When I reached the mainland, I went to the Farmer's union. There I was asked to plant some things for them. They said I would be well payed, so I said I would help. Then I bought a chicken! I named it Bucky. Then I headed to the Shopping Mall. There I bought a scare crow to scare off those terrible crows. I also bought some more potato seeds, since the ones I had now were almost ready to harvest. By now it was about mid day, so I ate a little lunch. Then I decided to watch a movie at the movie theater. When I was done with that, I went back to the farm. I set up my scare crow. Then I planted and watered the seeds I bought. Then I worked on getting rid of any weeds that had popped up over night. When I was done with that, I rushed to the grassland and collected some berries and chopped wood. When I was done with that, I went back to my farm and made a call to the Farmer's Union. I had them pick up the berries I had got from the grassland. Then I decided to build a fire! But I couldn't! I did however find 1,000g under a log! Looks like Sara has been holding out on me! I knew she was trouble! Well, I was really tired from that long day of work, so I ate dinner and then went to bed. I sure need a good night's sleep!" Well that's all! hope it helped you. Basically, if you continue to do what I did (of course the vegetables will be different during different seasons) for the time you have, you should do really good! Here's some tips to help you out: *Check out your fire place for a free 1,000g *When entering your birthday, make it the first of Spring. That way you'll get a gift from Sara! *Buy a scare crow ASAP!!!! You can loose hundreds of dollars a day with out it! *Give gifts to Billy.... ALOT! According to my sorces, he is a very good person to become friends with! *If you need some quick cash, check out the grass land! *If you chop all of the wood in your field, don't worry! You can chop more in the grass land and behind the animal houses! *Check out the following sections in this guide for some additional help: -The Best Place For... -FAQ -Characters -Animals E. The Best Place For... Just like in some of my other HM guides, I list the best places to do some of the game's essential activities. 1. Chopping Wood Once you clear out your field, check out the fields behind the animal houses. Once those are empty, go to the grass land. 2. Making Money Outside of your farm, there are two places that are really good for making some dough -Grass Land Here you can find berries, mushrooms, and all of that stuff that you can find in the other HM games. -Check out the next part of this section for the second place. 3. Fishing This place is also a good place for making money. When you go into the forest place, walking around with take you to the lake. There you can catch a lot of fish. You also may want to try fishing by the shore in the village. F. Maps Your Farm: Key: H- House A- Animal homes S- Secret Garden H20- Water St- Storage HS- Hot Springs W- Wall WAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWH20 W W H20 W W H20 WHH STHS W H20 WHH STHS Field H20 W W H20 WS W H20 WS W H20 WWW WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWH20 G. Animals Here I introduce all of the animals that I will talk about later on in the guide. 1. Horses Unlike the other Harvest Moons, this one allows you to have up to eight horses! That's really cool. You can either buy or breed those. The only problem is that you dont make any money off of them. BUT! You can ride the adult ones (only if they have the saddle) and ride them in the horse race, which will raise the farm rating. 2. Cows The most expencive animal in the game. BUT! The price is well worth it. Here's some tips on how to get the most out of your cow: *Only let them outside overnight if your dog is out there with them. *Brush them everyday *Let them outside during all the clear days. 3. Sheep Not nearly as good as cows (or as chickens the way I see it). They dont produce wool everyday (atleast the game is realistic). So you can't build up you farming empire on sheep alone. Here's some tips on how to get the most out of your sheep: *Only let them outside overnight if your dog is out there with them. *Brush them everyday *Let them outside during all the clear days. 4. Chickens Believe it or not, these things are real money makers. If you have all eight of 'em that is. I made a ton of money on just raising these things. They lay eggs everyday so you can rake in the dough a lot quicker than you can with the sheep. 5. Your Pet Your loyal animal! There a quite a few choices to choose from and they all have a different feature: Big dog > Medium Sized Dog> The dog will protect your animals that you keep outside. Small Dog > Big Cat ) Medium Sized Cat) The cat will bring you veggie seeds occasionally. Small Cat ) Pig } The pig will occassionally bring you money. Hawk ] The hawk will occassionally bring you flower seeds. H. Special Events Here I list the special events in the game. Most are festival-like events, but some are just cool looking things. Name: Fireworks Date: Summer, 20 Description: Kate will ask you to watch the fireworks with you on the cliff. Go there at 8 P.M. Name: Date Date: ??? Description: Your partner will ask you to go on a date with them. They take you to the cliff and you enjoy your first date. Name: No real name given Date: Fall, 24 Description: Go to the lake at the end of the forest before 12 P.M. , and you'll see that the water is red. I don't know why, but it is. I'll find out and post it soon. III. Extra Stuff Here I have all of the cool cheat-like stuff. A. GameShark Codes B. Secrets, Cheat, And Other Goodies Here I have secrets, cheats, hints, and other stuff! -Free Movies- Go to the theater with your money to pay. Save the game right before you talk to the ticket lady. Pay and watch the movie. Then turn off the GBC, GBA, or GBSP (Whichever you're using) and load up your game. You have seen the movie for free! -Pass The Time- Watching a movie takes up two hours of your day. -Water Path- While watering plants, it's annoying when you have to navigate through weeds and stuff to refill your water can. SO! You can dig a path of water from the shore to the area you are working in. This is helpful since you can walk on the small stream of water and weeds never grow on qit. NOTE: YOU CAN NOT FILL UP THE WATERING CAN USING THE STREAM!!! -Scare Crow Hint- You can only place a scare crow on land that has not been prepared to plant on. -Multi Pick Up- We all know that you can get berries and stuff in the grass land, BUT, did you know that you can go there an unlimited amount of time a day? This is helpful if you want some quick cash. C. FAQ Q. Can I get married in this game? A. Yes. But only during a certain time of the year. Q. Can I have kids? A. Yes. But you have to be married first. Q. What's up with the mountain? A. In the second summer, a earthquake will clear up the whole area. -Since I made up most of the questions on my own, I dont got all that many. Email me @ Duenos14@aol.com IV. Closing A.
