3.0 out of 5 stars <3 , November 1, 2008

By	Phillip Lin - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I just got this today and its quite colorful, really nicely laid out and loads of cute pictures.

It is, unfortunately, not as helpful as I was hoping it would be. I thought that the faqs on gamefaqs[...] were more helpful and more interesting to read. That's just probably because of my age group though :( since I found the writing to be really formal and a little dry. But it was informative. In fact, its kinda like reading my biology book for class Oo; Go figure.

I wish there were a little bit more detailed information - a lot of it is general overview. For example there's a great section about wild animals - but it doesn't list what the wild animal's favorites food are :(

Also, this isn't the author's fault at all - but there's a good number of miniscule mistakes in it as well. oO; mismatched images [...].

Freyashawk includes a lot of really great hints though that I find handy :) What this guide has a LOT A LOT A LOT of are lists. Which is good - if you're a list person. :) Since I'm a really visual person, I'm glad that I did purchase the guide. If you're not a [...] for pictures and you want little hints or information - you'll be quite well off sticking to gamefaqs. :)

As for me, I'm quite happy with my guide. I sure could use more pictures though! :D haha, but that's just personal preference really [ and in all honesty - this guide has a lot of graphics anyways I just want more :D ].

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Game!, April 26, 2009

By	Becky - See all my reviews

I originally owned the harvest moon for the n-64 and enjoyed it. This version for the wii is so much better! There is more to the game than just build a farm, grow your crops and get married. Its that there is an actual story line behind it all. You have to save the harvest goddess and preserve mother tree. It is so much fun and then trying to win the mini games is a complete competition!! I JUST LOVE IT!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars A very useful guide to have., February 16, 2009

By	Jill Krawczyk (Stevens Point, WI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The sections of this guide I used most were the lists - crops, mining, recipes, animals, products. Second is the relationships section.

There was one error that I noticed right in the beginning. There was a box about making money early on in the game that suggested buying as many decent cocoons from Brownie Ranch as you can afford, dying them (preferably blue), then reselling for a big profit. Brownie Ranch does not sell cocoons.
