Harvest Moon Pt. 3

You know what? I maybe might have possibly decided I perhaps know what's so addicting about Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town... maybe.

Of course, courtship and then marriage is always great. It's a goal, an objective you can set for yourself.

But HM:FoMT does have other goals too. Power Berries, for one thing. You have to run around the entire town, farm, and mountain in order to find and/or earn all nine, plus the blue one Kappa gives you.

Cursed tools, also. A lot more difficult in this game than in the DS game to get them blessed, because you have to work the curse off yourself, rather than just dole out the cash to have the church get rid of each of them.

Another thing I really liked was befriending the villagers and running into random events with them. There are cooking lessons at one lady's house on a few Saturdays. There are plenty of events at the inn, I think often concerning the telephone or wine. The clinic, Karen's place, and the beach (plus its buildings, and especially in the summer) I think are also good places when you just want to watch some action. Oh, but let's not forget the Harvest Sprites Hut. Befriend them all and they invite you to parties in the spring!

And of course. I could never leave out the animals and crops. They may not be as much 'goals' as they are just an obvious part of the game, but they are certainly where a great chunk of your income originates, plus they stock your fridge when you can finally get one.

I guess  I'll leave it at that for today. Until next time, then, I guess. =3
