This Guide/Walkthrough/Faqs is NOT spoiler-free.Any and all spoilers are included.

I have been working on this Guide/Walkthrough/Faqs for many eons nowand I hope you thoroughly enjoy it along with the Harvest Moon Tree ofTranquility game.

Note: This Guide/faqs is a work in progress and will take a while tocomplete but it is already detailed enough to get you progressing

well through the game. This is indeed one great game!

This is not just a port of information from the Japanese game. I havebeen extremely careful to not infringe on any copyright issues.This info has been recreated, tested, and produced originally by me,Goldhorizon with any credit noted if other original info by someoneelse has been quoted herein.

This is for all of you who have been waiting for details to startyour US game right when it comes out in the US. The only thing I may


2/386

leave in the guide is the Japanese to US person names because a lotof Harvest Moon fans have gotten this game in Japanese and are usedto those names. This way they can correlate to the US names and info.

This guide will cover only the final US version of the game.A few references to the earlier US versions or JP version may beincluded to state some differences in the games.

Yes, I have a computer programming degree from an affluent university.

Yes, I have written programming code for games in various programminglanguages.

Yes, I know how to translate most Japanese to English.

Yes, I have access to several of the JP copies of the game.

Yes, I have several of the US copies of the game.

Most, if not all, of the questions on the boards that people are askingare answered in the guide below. Therefore, I will be focusing more ontesting and updates of this guide rather than on answering tons ofquestions via emails, private messages, or boards. This allows me to

get more of the answers out to everyone instead of answering the samequestions repeatedly. Thereby, this method benefits more people andallows me to test the game more thouroughly and get it out to morepeople for their benefit.

=============================================================================

===============================Introduction & Overview

===============================

- I have been playing Harvest Moon games for eons and have been answeringquestions and giving advice online on the series for many, many years.I have even had several of my writings published in faqs for HarvestMoon games by others and freely with my permission.

- When put together, I have literally written volumes on the Harvest Moonseries (including the beginning games) online but it occurred to me thatI have never written my own guide/faqs for any of the Harvest Moon games.

- So, I figured that it was about time that I wrote a detailed

guide/faqs for a Harvest Moon game. I want this one to be very inclusiveso it will be a work in progress and be updated over a long period oftime but I assure you that you will be able to find a ton of usefulinformation in its pages during the completion process.

- I have chosen this title because it is a very in-depth game and the firstone available in the US on the Wii console. Because of what I know aboutthe game, I am also super excited about this game coming out in the US!(Plus I have received tons of requests to post information about thisgame!)

- I could not chose my favorite Harvest Moon game among all of them, butthis one definitely ranks up on the very top of the list!

Game Description----------------

"You have moved to an island town that was once enchantedhowever it has beenyears since the mystical Mother Tree has shown any signs of life and theHarvest Goddess has vanished. The island has lost its connection with natureand the inhabitants don't know what to do. Till the earth, tend to andbefriend animals, nurture friendships and build a family to help save theisland!"

About the Game--------------

- Released 06/07/07 in Japan, made by Marvelous- Final US version Release 09/30/08, translated to English by Natsume- All previously released US versions were recalled or were for trial/testing- This guide will cover only the final US version of the game- Genre (RPG, Strategy, Construction, Simulation, Adventure, and more)- 10th Anniversary of Harvest Moon logo on front of game box


22/386

- The beginnings of the series have actually been around much longer and werepreviously known under other titles like Back to Nature, etc.

- No Wi-Fi but there are good mini games to play (1 to 4 players) and thereis so much to do that you probably won't notice

- Intriguing Story-line- Interactive Wii controls as well as button controls- Raise a variety of farm animals- Farm animals have a variety of colors- Raise a large variety of crops in 4 seasons (28 days per season)- Fish for a variety of fish in the ocean, sea, lake, river, & caves- Befriend 19 different wild animals to make them your pets- Can keep 5 pets in a level 5 house- Forage for wild herbs, flowers, mushrooms, and other items- Play as Boy &/or Girl- Work part-time jobs (short working scenes) at different shops- Play mini games with family/friends- Tons of crops, animals, and events- Deepest Harvest Moon content yet- Court and marry a spouse Or not if you decide- Raise a girl or boy child or leave it to chance- Other in-game couples marry and have children- Re-play the game starting as your child

(like starting with main character but keep money, etc)- Keep playing as original character and play forever- Spouse makes you daily box lunch- Child grows and can do watering, harvesting, gathering, milking- Befriend islanders- Get new islanders to move onto island(once on island they won't leave again)

=============Tips

=============

Game Versions:

The final US version has the following taken out from earlier US versions:

- If you bought your game on or after 30 Sept 2008 then you have thefinal US version

- No Decent/Good Cocoon sold at Brownie Ranch- You can still grow your own silkworms and get all grades of cocoons

- No Decent/Good Wool sold at Brownie Ranch- You can still buy Decent/Good Wool Yarn at the Spring & Summer Flea

Market (Simon/Spring 22 & Summer 22)- You can still buy Decent/Good Wool Yarn at the Animal Festival

(Hannah/Spring 28)- You can still raise your own sheep and get all grades of wool

- No regular fish sold at On The Hook- You can still catch your own fresh fish at any fishable spot- You can still buy some grilled fish varieties at On The Hook

- Also this version uses Vegetable Juice for more fatigue recoveryinstead of Tomato Juice. Tomato juice will still give you fatiguerecovery but you will need to drink 2 Tomato Juices to wake yourcharacter up instead of just one Vegetable Juice.

- Animal Colors:- No black goat/Kid- No mallard duck (but still seen in Maple Lake)

- Farm Plot prices changed:

Previously Cost (1 of 1st 3 chosen free):

- Three starting Lots- Town Plot (7,500 G)- Seaside Plot (7,200 G)- Hilltop Plot (7,800 G)

- Additional Lot- Mountain Plot (18,000 G)

Now Costs:

- All farm plots cost 4,500 G each with 1 of 1st 3 startingfarm plots still chosen for free after Souffle Farm homestay

- Various incidental changes (such as Empty Can instead ofEmpty Tin, Yellow Tail instead of Yellowtail, 3 fish addedto Bookshelf/Other list - Wood Fish/Skull Jellyfish/Seasky, etc)- I will probably not mention them all here just because these

minor changes don't affect the game in any significant manner.


34/386

- Also the final US version has a glitch known as the "CalvinGlitch". Basically, when playing as a girl and you get Calvinto 5 hearts and then go to the 10th floor of the Ganache Minesthen the game will freeze. Natsume is looking into this glitch.Until then, you can by-pass the 10th floor by using a pitfall(random success) or by triggering Calvin and Phoebe's 2nd and3rd rival heart events thereby enabling them to marry. Theglitch will also not happen if you do not allow Calvin toacquire 5 hearts. You can not marry Calvin until this is fixed.If playing as a boy, then you will not encounter this glitchbecause you will not have a 5th heart event request forCalvin.

- No, you can not buy milk from any store (this is in JP version).In the final US version you need to raise a cow or a goat to getmilk (a goat grows up faster).

Your Own Booth at Winter Flea Market?:

- Winter 21st 11:50am Rode into North Waffle Town entrance

- Cutscene triggered- Mayor said, Oh good youre here- Then asked me if I wanted to set up a booth to sell some things

that I didnt need anymore to make some extra money- There was no way to respond- Cutscene ended and I was back on my horse and still at theentrance

- No other related anything when re-enter north entrance ortalk to mayor on same day or Winter Flea Market day

- 1st time you enter (Winter Flea Market/Year 1/Winter 22)- Town Square steps (& inside square) all decorated for

flea market- Cutscene of Mayor in Town Square talking to resident

- Then immediately another cutscene triggers- Elli is running (in square/East to West) and bumps into youknocking you down

- She apologizes and then says, Do you have a stand too? Orare you a just here to shop? (grammar error included)

- You wave your hands (speaking but no words displayed)- She says, I see. Im selling desserts here today. Please

come by and check out my selection!- You nod yes, both of you wave, she runs off towards booths,

cutscene ends and then no other related cutscenes can betriggered no matter what you do or who you talk to includingthe mayor (even pressing A around any empty stalls)

Conclusion: If in fact they had included this at some point then ithas been decided against or taken out after the fact. Or it wassomething they were thinking of incorporating into the game butdidnt finish.

Crop Quality Types:

- Crop Qualities/Types/Grades: Decent, Good, Perfect, Shining


35/386

- Usually top fertilized soil quality equals perfect productswith occasional chance of getting Shining products

- Crops, Cooked dishes, and any other products &/or items do NOTdegrade. Once a shining product then always a shining product.

- Product &/or item grades can change depending on how you combinethem in cooking or certain processing

- For example:

- A Shining Ostrich Egg can lose its grade when made intoOstonnaise (ostrich mayonnaise)

- A Good Herb Fish (cooked dish) can become a Perfect or evenShining Herb Fish (cooked dish) if higher quality (or morefish) are added while cooking the dish

- Once an end product is produced then the dish will neverdegrade or lose its end product grade

Making Money (Beginning):

- When you start money is not so easy to come by so try to gather, shipany items you can, and work at part-time jobs- On The Hook - fishing company is open until 10 pm

- Sunday Inn Bar is open until midnight

- you can do a variety of things to get money as stated below:

- Items do stack (up to 99) in this game so use it to your advantage- Fish a lot - some fish sell for little and some for a lot- Grow and ship a lot of crops

(you will need to grow more crops than in past HM games because theydon't sell for as much)

- Raise silkworms, dye cocoons with Blue Herb, and ship- Collect & ship the gift boxes- Gather mushrooms and toadstools at Ganache Mines

- Floor 19 is full of them

- Process Decent Cocoons for shipping (requires chicken coop & barn)- Buy your own silkworms (produce cocoons every 4 days)

- The cocoon grade will be lost when dyed so use Decent Cocoons- Buy a Yarn/Thread Maker at the General Store for 4,500 G (back of barn)

- A Dye Pot will come with the purchase (right front of barn/inside)- Forage/grow any colored herb or colored flower

- Green Herb is cheapest to obtain- Blue Herb gets you the most profit

- Use the Yarn/Thread Maker to turn a Decent Cocoon into Silk Yarn- Use the Dye Pot plus the herb to turn the Silk Yarn into Blue Silk

Yarn which ships for 2,100 G each- Repeat to recover initial costs and then for large profits!

- This also helps to up star farm ranks quickly!

- Buy Happy Fertilizer on Spring 10 at the Flower Festival- Buy some seeds and plant them with the fertilizer to get high-shipping

crops to give you a boost at the start of the game- Yes, you can put fertilizer on tilled soil/seeds/and already growing

and mature crops- Happy Fertilizer upgrades soil to best quality for 3 seasons

You dont have to worry about dropping items. If you press A when youare not by people or animals then pop-up message will ask if you wantto put down or put away the item. If you do place an item by accident,then you still have a second or two to grab the disappearing item. Ifthis is in a public place then it will cause loss of affection frompeople when it touches the ground but you can still pick it up andkeep the item if you are quick enough.

- Typhoons and severe heat will still cause damage to crops but notcollapse buildings

- Typhoons and bad storms will scatter weeds, stones, and wood around- Your character can get a cold if out too much in a typhoon/blizzardespecially if your stamina is low while outside & also if stay up invery bad weather- Makes character walk slow and use tons of stamina for actions- Buy Cold Medicine to remedy or make your own (see Cooking section)- Colds will not go away on their own. You can't sleep them off or

use any "wake up" medicine other than Cold Medicine.

- Types of weather - Sunny, Cloudy, Rainy, Typhoon, Snow, Snowstorm- Typhoon purple cloud, lightning bolts & raindrops, lots of crossing

rain streaks outside- Thunderstorm white cloud, lightning bolts, lots of rain streaks

straight down outside- Rainy white cloud, no lightning bolts, lots of raindrops, less rain

streaks straight down outside

- Working in the rain or any bad weather will decrease your stamina faster- The worse the weather the faster your stamina will decrease

- Snow will not water your crops because it is not considered water

- Special Events only occur on sunny or cloudy days- Most friendship gifts at your door and heart events will not occur onrainy days but some rival heart events will still occur

- Don't forget to catch the rare fish (Seasky/River) during typhoons andsnowstorms even if the weather impairs your vision outside (sells high)and needed for lists/bookshelf

- Don't leave animals out in any bad weather (only sunny and cloudy) orthey will get unhappy, angry, or sick (affects them the next day)

- You can take horses or ostriches out in any weather without any sideeffects if you saddle them up and ride out and into the barn. If yousaddle them up from outside in bad weather or unsaddle them outsidethen they will suffer bad effects. You can dismount them and have themwait in the weather while you shop or do anything without any bad

effects as long as you saddle and ride them from the barn and backinto the barn when you are done (red barn icon above animals head).If you have the saddle in your pack, then you can whistle (A then B)to call them (you can be nearly anywhere on the map) and you will beimmediately on horseback. Just be sure if it is bad weather to ridethem in front of the barn door (red barn icon) before dismounting them.

- To change the weather: save your game before the evening forecast/TVon the previous day & reset if not the desired weather for the next day.Festivals will always be sunny.

38/386

of events like festivals and new items at shops (press A)- The mayor will also personally come to your house to invite you tofestivals for the first year

- Shop menus also often have information to help you be informed- Also, don't forget to use your bookshelf, TV, Telephone, and maps

Tracking Individuals:

- Tracking someone is a good way to meet them and learn their schedule- Once you meet someone then you can use the pursuit/tracking option- Go to the main menu and into the friendship list- Press A on the person you want to track- A circle with that persons picture appears on the bottom left-hand ofthe screen

- Under the circle it will list where that person is at all times- Around the circle rim it will have an arrow showing the direction youneed to go to meet the individual

- You can track one individual at a time but you can also change theindividual you are tracking to track someone else as many times asyou want and whenever you want

- Houses are usually locked between 8pm-7am- Sometimes individuals will stay home during rain/snow even if theirbusiness is open

Stamina/Fatigue:

Stamina- You have only one bar in this Harvest Moon game: Stamina- Rainbow bar is best-Full/Green bar is good/Red bar is worst- The fuller the bar then the better the stamina you have- A dangerously low stamina bar will be red-colored- Working in the rain/bad weather will decrease your stamina faster- Start off carefully so you don't pass out all the time- You start with a 500 point stamina bar- You can get a 1,000 point stamina bar by getting the 5power berries

- To refill your stamina bar:- Use the Hot Springs at the beginning of the game- Forage for edible items at the beginning of the game- If you can afford it, buy cooked dishes from places like the Inn- Cook and Eat food/dishes when you get a kitchen & utensils- Fish & cook on firewood stacks (bonfires - need the matches)

Fatigue- You may also be effected by Fatigue- Fatigue is caused from staying up past 6am without sleeping- You can not stay up for 3 days in a row. At 6am on the 3rd day thenyou will be transported to bed (making you lose a whole day). You

can "stay up past 3 days" if you jump in bed within those 3 daysbefore 5:50am (which technically is going to sleep even if it isfor one second). Using a stay awake or super stay awake will wakeyou up during the day you use it but it will still count 3 daysuntil you are forced to sleep losing a whole day (no matter howmany fatigue recovery items you use).

- Fatigue will slow your steps, make you stagger, use more stamina,and blue bubbles will rise from your character

- Use recovery items/drinks specifically for recovering fatigueif this happens (Vegetable Juice, 2 Tomato Juices, Stay Awake,


39/386

Super Stay Awake)

Note: See Stamina/Fatigue section for more details.

Power Berries:

- There are 5 (each one increases stamina by 100 pts)

- Fishing rod reaches level 3- Or lvl 4 if in child file and had lvl 3 in original file- Comes from rod level increase & not from type of fish caught

- Hoe a lot of land and you get one (1,000 squares)- Can hoe any tillable land and even the same square repeatedly- Can take out tools in your own houses but you can not use

tools in your houses

- Getting any animal to 10 hearts- Berry given where you are when achieved doing what you were

doing/any action that makes the animal's heart raise to 10at that instant

- In center of Goddess Tree/Goddess Pond-Spring- You have to open path to Mt. Gelato- see Opening Blocked Paths & Requirements section

Note: You start with 500 stamina points. There are 5 power berrieswhich gives you a total of 1,000 stamina points maximum.

More Wood when Chopping:

- When chopping down a tree, make sure there are no weeds around the treethat you are chopping so that a wood piece can land there and notdisappear into the weed.

Getting Material Stone & Wood:

- When you break a boulder with a stone then it will make some smallerstones. You do NOT have to keep hammering on the smaller stones. Justpick them up off the ground. The smaller stones are material stonesand are used for building requirements. When you pick up the stonesthen they will disappear (not put in rucksack) and you will be

credited for the amount gathered (Hold C button, use control pad toscroll to Status/Lighthouse Icon, look under Ranch Tab at Lumber &Material Stone amounts).

- When you chop down a tree (tiny to full grown) then you will seesmall cut logs. You do NOT have to keep chopping them with the axe.Just pick them up off the ground. The smaller cut logs are materialwood and are used for building requirements. When you pick up thesmall cut wood logs they will disappear (not put in rucksack) andyou will be credited for the amount gathered (Hold C button, use


40/386

control pad to scroll to Status/Lighthouse Icon, look under RanchTab at Lumber & Material Stone amounts).

Giving Gifts:

- You can give more than one gift per day but there is a cap- See Marriage or Villager sections for more details

Processing Flax:

- Get Taylor into town by doing 1st rainbow (green sprite: Daren)- He will arrive around Year 2/Spring (see Order of Moving In)

- Call supermarket and buy flax seeds from Taylor (Taylor's Seeds- grows in Spring) or get the flax yarn from Hannah at the AnimalFestival (Spring 28)

- When the flax seeds have grown then put them into the yarn/threadmaker to get Flax Yarn

- Flax keeps its grade (Shining Flax = Shining Flax Yarn)

The Passing of Time

- Time passes quickly

- Time still passes in all buildings except your own houses- Time passes in the mines just as it would outside- Time passes in your animal barn and chicken coop- Time passes in all houses except your own houses- Time stops when you open a menu, talk to someone, and charge tools- Time stops when you open any shipping bin so you dont lose timeshipping items

- Time stops when you charge any tool except the fishing pole- Time does stop as you reel in your catch

Simon's Prices/Spring Flea Market/Spring 22 & Summer 22- Good Wool Yarn - 465 G


41/386

Hannah's Prices/Animal Festival/Spring 28- Good Wool Yarn - 465 G- Good Flax Yarn - 540 G- Good Silk Yarn - 1050 G

Rucksacks- 1: you have from start - 10 spaces- 2: get for free from Tailor Shop - 15 spaces- 3: 2 good flax yarn = 1,080 G - 20 spaces

-------4,110 G - buy from Hannah

(plus yw, rd, grn herb/flower)

- 5: Get later - get barn and raise sheep/silkworm to getshining wool products - 30 spaces

- Flax is your main concern/only grows in Springand only is available through Taylor's Seeds

- Earliest possible time to grow first flax seedwill be Year 2/Spring

Note: By collecting mushrooms & toadstools and miningnearly every day during Spring then you can get about1,000-2,000 G a day. This will give you enough moneyto do the 1st rainbow (see Rainbow section/about 6,000 G)and to buy ALL the Good Wool Yarn, Good Flax Yarn, andGood Silk Yarn for ALL rucksacks except the 5th upgraderucksack which requires Shining products which are not

sold by Hannah at the Animal Festival/Spring 28. Havingall the products for up to 4 upgrades of the rucksacksgives you a huge boost early in the game. Otherwise, toget flax products then you would have to wait about onewhole year to then finish the rucksack upgrades (Taylormoves in about Year 2/Spring - Buy Flax seed and grow itusing the Happy Fertilizer to get Shining Flax and thenprocess it in the yarn/thread maker, etc).

Shipping Bins

- All shipping bins have 18 spaces stackable with the same item up to 99- All shipping bins are shared (what goes in one is in all bins)- You typically won't run out of shipping space because of stacking- There are many shipping bins scattered around the map- You can not store tools or seeds in the shipping bin- You can use the shipping bin for temporary storage so you don't haveto run all the way back to one of your houses to store items

- You could store fish/gems/etc at one location, then go to yourhouse and open up your shipping bin by your house and pull outall the fish/gems/etc that you wish to keep - allows you to fill


42/386

up rucksack with items Plus get additional items out of thestorage bin by your house

- All items inside will ship when you go to bed- If you do not go to bed before 6am then they will be shippedat 6am - so remove any items you've stored that you want to keep

- You can ship items on any festivals/flea market/holidays and youwill get paid for any items shipped on these days. No matter whatyou will always get money from items shipped the next day at 6ameveryday you have shipped any items.

Shelf & Refrigerator

- You start with a small shelf & you can buy a fridge at the store- You can buy additional &/or different refrigerators and shelves- You can stack up to 99 items in each space for both refrigerators andshelves

- You can have more than one refrigerator and shelf in your house foradditional storage

- Refrigerators and shelves/cabinets have the same storage capacities- Small: 18 spaces- Medium: 27 spaces- Large: 36 spaces

Islanders/Villagers Moving In - 1st Rainbow - Goddess Tree Quilt

- You need to do the 1st rainbow (Daren: Waffle Town Square/Tree) toallow people to start moving in to land areas

- To do the 1st rainbow then you will need to find two halves of theHarvest Goddess Quilt (Mayor has left half/Clock tower for right half)

- You can't just run and go get them. You have to follow a process.Along the way you will learn the Island's story. You can also readthe two books in the library on the island history and about the quilt.- Town Hall upstairs in the library/2 books on Island History

- Hamilton will come to your house and then take you to his house totell you the story of the island- After you ship about 1,000 G/Mayor comes to your door at 6am

- Hamilton will return a few days later, take you to his house, and giveyou the 1st half of the Goddess Tree Quilt- After you ship some more

- Go talk to Gill - he knows about quilt but wont tell you about it yet- Upgrade your house to level 2

- Talk to Gill again - he tells you that the sprites took the other half andhid it

- Go talk to Dale & learn more about the clock tower in the town square- Talk to Hamilton in his house, agree to fix the clock (gives you key)

- Hamilton is in his house around 4:30pm or in the morning- You can use the tracker to track when he goes in his house

- Go to the clock tower and use the key (key in hand, face front, press A)to get the 2nd half of the quilt and Alan's Memo

- This allows you to start collecting rainbows

- Now go to the tree in the Town Square and water the flower beneath it tomeet the green sprite named Daren who will give you a recipe:

- Grilled Yam (Spring Flea Market - Spring 22 - buy from Maya)


43/386

- Make sure to meet her before Spring 22 in the Town Square (on bench)- Carp (fish in river - common type of fish)- Good Herb Fish

(oven, 4 fish, 1 herb -- dish should be worth 300 G or not much more)- Common Seashell (on the beaches)- Apple (Spring Flea Market - Spring 22 - buy from Simon)

- Save these items & take all 5 items to Daren to make the 1st rainbow- The breeze will start blowing and people will start moving in (1st & 15th

of each month) starting with the tailor shop (Tailor Shop) and then1 person at a time after that.

Order of Moving In:

- The order people move in may be tied to what and when you do things onyour farm & completing the 1st rainbow by Year 1/Spring's end but hereis a general list:

- Shelly, Candace, Luna/Tailor Shop - Year 1/Summer 1- Calvin - Year 1/Summer 15- Chase - Year 1/Fall 1- Phoebe - Year 1/Fall 15

- Julius - Year 1/Winter 1- Taylor - Year 1/Winter 15- Gray - Year 2/Spring 1- Perry - Year 2/Spring 15- Paolo - Year 2/Summer 1

- Once someone moves onto Waffle Island then they will never move out again- If you finish the 1st rainbow after the end of Spring then the people willjust move in on the 1st and 15th of each month after you finish the 1strainbow. You will not have to wait until Spring again.

Identifying Gem Trick:

- Ores/Wonderfuls from the mines are not identified until you take them toMira at the shop

- Depending on the color and sparkles of the ore/wonderful then you can tellwhat they are most of the time by using a list

- This will save you valuable time, stamina, and effort in the mines- See Identifying Gems List in the Mining section

Part-time Jobs:- As long as a business is open then you can work at a part-time job there- Working at part-time jobs gets you some money but not a whole lot of money- The more hours you work then the more you get paid

- Go up to the front of the counter and press A- Going behind the counter is for talking to the person & not for buying

- Look through the menu and choose the part-time job/work option- Your work time will start immediately and will not end until the end ofthe shop's business day and then you will get paid

- Usually your "work" is about 2-3 short auto-played working scenes- Know how long the shop is in business for before you start the part-timejob or you may be surprised how late you worked

- Waffle Town:


44/386

- Sundae Inn - 9am to 5pm - Closed Sunday- Sundae Inn Bar - 6pm to Midnight - Closed Sunday- General Store - 9am to 6pm - Closed Monday- Meringue Clinic - 8am to 5pm - Closed Monday- Tailor Shop - 9am to 6pm - Closed Sunday- On The Hook - 6am to 10pm - Closed Monday

- Brownie Ranch:- Brownie Ranch - 9am to 6pm - Closed Monday

- Toucan Island (Southern Island):- Pineapple Inn - 8am to 8pm - never closed- Inaccessible Mondays when Ferry closed

- Working a part-time job does not use up any of your stamina or fatigue- Part-time jobs will slightly increase the friendship points for those

who own or work at the business where you completed the part-time job.- If you excessively work at part-time jobs (especially repeatedly atthe same business) then you may get an individual who you haven't metyet appearing with a gift at your door. This means that you have raisedthat person's heart level to a level 2. This does not mean that youcan now go meet the person. He/she is not actually on the island yet.To be permanently on the island the individual must have come on theferry which will trigger a response of a "new person" arriving and itmust be the new person arriving announcement specifically for thatindividual.

===================================Basic Story-line Walkthrough===================================

- Remember to talk to all characters to hear new things theyhave to say as any and all events are taking place

- Usually characters will say new things for about 5 daysafter events take place before returning to saying usualthings

- Rancher/Farmer: I know that you are a "rancher" and you are running a"Ranch" in this game but I was taught that a ranch specifically entailed

ranch animals and that a farm was crops and animals. So in this guide Iwill use the word Farm instead of Ranch on most occasions. You may havebeen taught different and use the word Ranch instead of farm. It is allfine either way.

- As the story unfold, various people will give you books. You can readall of these books (& the other books you buy) by pressing A at yourbookshelf in your home ... once you have a house.


45/386

Pascal's Ship:--------------

- The Farm Plan: Year 1/Spring 1- You have found an ad for a Farm Plot- You decide to move to Rainbow Sash Island- You board Pascal's Ship to journey there- He asks you random questions on your journey- This enables you to name your character among

other things

of the area outside Waffle Town

- What is my name?- Hilton- Hamilton (this answer gets friend points)- Sheraton

- Stay on this island?

- Yes (this answer gets friend points)- No (this answer goes to more pleading with a black screenas if the game is over and then he comes back with "joking"and he doesn't let you leave because "you will like it here"

Tour of Area:- Maple Lake Area (including Goddess Church)- Ganache Mine Area (Souffle Farm)

- The mayor will tell you that you will stay at Souffle Farm whilehe builds you a house (apparently they didn't know you were comingbut they will put you to work as a helper on the farm ... Good luck!)

Souffle Farm:--------------

- Let's get workin' (Interactive Tutorial)- Go inside and meet Craig and Ruth the owners of Souffle Farm- You will work at Souffle Farm for about 2 days- This is called the Homestay- This gives you an option to work- This also gives you the Hoe & Watering Can


48/386

- Day 1: Year 1/Spring 2/Monday- Weed a field (timed/get basic Watering Can)/1pm-3pm

(seconds real time)- Water all the strawberries/3pm-5pm

(seconds real time)- Go back in to Souffle Farm Shop

- Meet Anissa (gives you Farming for Beginners)- Talk to Ruth who sends you to bed to rest- Save your game

- Day 2: Year1/Spring 3/Tuesday- Wake up/walk into main Souffle Farm Shop room/Ruth Cutscene- Go talk to Craig who puts you to work again- Harvest all the strawberries (timed)/10am-1pm (seconds real time)- Deliver strawberries to neighbors (timed/Craig's Strawberries)

1pm-6pm (seconds real time)- Maple Lake Area (learn area)- Yolanda (next to Toby's house)- Jin (near church - on top of stairway that leads up a hill)- Gill (beside the church)

- You can give a strawberry to Anissa to up her friendship but itwill not count towards delivering the strawberries & may subtractfrom a job well done (less money earned) so just say hi without

giving her a strawberry- If you don't deliver the strawberries to all 3 people then youwon't get full pay for the job

- When done delivering strawberries then go tell Ruth you are done- You will now go to bed- The Harvest Goddess will appear in your dream- Save your game

- Day 3: Year 1/Spring 4/Wednesday/10am

- Wake up at Souffle Farm and go into the main room again- The mayor is there talking with Ruth- You tell the mayor about your dream of the Harvest Goddess

- After the dream discussion then the mayor will give you an optionof having one of the 3 starting farm plots for free- Seaside Plot- Town Plot- Hilltop Plot- All farm plots unbought are available for 4,500 G each at the

Town Hall including the additional Mountain Plot- See Farm Lots section for more details

- Choose carefully- This will be your 1st Farm Lot- This will determine where your spouse, child, & pets stay- You must also build a barn & chicken coop here only- Your house, barn, & chicken coop are preset on each farm lot so

you can not choose where to put them and there will only be onebarn and one chicken coop on your 1st farm lot ONLY

- Congratulations! This is your new house!- You will probably start off with the Simple style house and someSimple style furniture - so if you want to complete the set thenjust keep buying the Simple style - you can always move it toanother house later

- Walk across the main room and Ruth will stop you- You will get paid 360 G or less (depending on how well you didall the jobs given you over the days) plus gain a bag of potato


49/386

seeds for completing the homestay (potato & pot = stamina or growand ship for money for more seeds) (Mayor also likes potatoes)(Potato & Frying Pan = Stir-fry for stamina/good shipping money)

- Walk out of Souffle Farm Shop's front door- Try to walk out of Souffle Farm area and Craig will stop you- Craig will give you the basic Hoe- Then Mayor Hamilton will show up and give you two books(Building Basics and About Furniture) when he shows you yournew house (house level 1)

- You may get two books named Building Basics - one from the mayorand one from Dale but they are the same book and only one copywill show up on your bookshelf

- It is now Day 4: Year 1/Spring 4/Wednesday/12pm (noon)

- You are now free to do whatever you want!- You can work part-time jobs at businesses to get some money- You can go get a free fishing rod from Toby (On The Hook - fish co./Waffle Town Beach/Cream Beach) and start fishing

- Wow! So many things to start doing!

- The 1st thing I suggest doing is going to every accessible placeand talking with every available person inside and outside ofbuildings - this will go far in unlocking areas and start sequencesthat will help you a lot in the beginning (& don't forget to press

A at the root of the Ganache Mine entrance before you speak to Dale)

- If you are playing your child in this game (newgame+) then you willalready have a level 3 hammer and can go hammer the boulder tounlock Brownie Ranch. If this is your first game or you are notplaying a child file then you probably won't have the necessary timeto get your hammer to level 3 before the Animal Festival/Spring 28(unless you are using your hammer extensively - boulders or mining).In that case, just wait until Spring 28 and the game will open thepath way for you so that you can attend the Animal Festival. If youdo break the boulder to Brownie Ranch early (Kathy greets/thanks you)then be sure to meet Renee so she will be at the Animal Festivalselling at her booth that same month.

- Till field- Plant seeds- Water crops- Build barn- Build chicken coop- Level up skill on tools (use them a lot)- Fish- Forage- Ship items- Work part-time jobs at shops- Build relationships (people & pets)- Start buying Telephone, TV, TV Guide, Calendar (star farm rank 1)

- Explore- Open new areas- Upgrading- ... and too many more to mention

- During all this, you need to continue on with the storyline bymaking 5 rainbows which connects the land pieces and save the Islandand Harvest Goddess by growing the Goddess Tree


50/386

Suggestions for Early Beginnings:

- I suggest getting the 1st rainbow done immediately so that theTailor Shop will move in and then other people will follow. If youthen wish to go slowly with the game then you will at least haveall the main characters moving onto the island. There is no rushto get married (no set year - you could marry at year 50 or beyondif you wished) but you do need to be careful about your rivalmarrying your choice of spouse if your spouse has a rival. SeeMarriage section.

- Also work on getting the rucksack upgrades early

- You can also buy the mix seed bags per each season to unlock cropsand other growable items that would not normally be available to buy

- Be careful to not use up all your stamina or you will collaspe andend up in Meringue Clinic where doctor Jin will lecture you forworking too hard and you will lose precious starting time

- Attend every festival and talk to everyone there to unlock mini-gamesand buy hard to make or rare items sold there especially at the start

- REMEMBER that you have to trigger the introduction scene (met the

person) of all the people that will have booths at the fleamarkets and festivals or else THEY WILL NOT be there selling itemsat their booth. Trigger their introduction scenes at least the daybefore the flea market or festival that they will be selling at abooth. They must also have already moved onto the island by comingon the ferry to the island (meet them - see Villagers section andlook under their name to find info on where to meet them).

- Note that working excessively at shops where the arriving person willwork may trigger the person to come to your door on a sunny day witha gift (usually the 2nd heart gift). This is because working at shopsslightly increases friendship with all those related to the shop. Soif you work excessively at a shop then it is possible to raise 2

heart levels with an individual that has not yet arrived on the island.This does not mean that the person is now on the island. They have tohave come on the ferry to permanently live on the island and be atflea markets and festivals.

- Probably the 1st two powerberries you can get will be the one at thebottom of Ganache Mines (30th floor) and the one from the fishing pole(level up skill to level 3). Those will help with stamina.

- Also, try to level up tools (do more work easier) and upgrade your toolmaterials (using tools uses less stamina):

- Basic Watering Can: received already from Craig

- Basic Hoe: received already from Craig- Basic Fishing Pole: receive from Toby at Waffle Town Beach near

On The Hook- Basic Sickle: receive from Cain when Brownie Ranch opens- Skill level 3 Hammer/hammer boulder or wait till Spring 28/auto open

- Basic Hammer: Ganache Mines/Blacksmith Shop from Owen- Walk past Blacksmith Shop going West to East to get cutscene

- Basic Axe: Talk to Dale at Carpenter Shop then go to Praline Forest- Receive from Luke (cutscene at Praline Forest) upper northeast past

Carpentry Shop and Blacksmith's


51/386

- Start saving money for Spring Flea Market and Animal Festival- To buy some 1st Rainbow recipe items (gets people moving onto island)- To buy Happy Fertilizer for high-quality crops- To buy Flax, Wool, and Thread products from Hannah for 3rd & 4th

Rucksacks- To get a jumpstart on beginning of game- Fishing, mining, foraging, part-time jobs- Don't forget mushroom gathering in mines

- Buy level 1 Barn & Chicken Coop

- Animal Barn (level 1): 3,000 G, 12 stone, 12 wood lumber

- Has 6 stalls- Holds 6 livestock (sheep/goat/cow/horse/ostrich)- Contains Yarn Maker/Dye Pot/Cheese Maker/Butter Maker)

- If purchased (processes items one-at-a-time/not entire stack)

- Chicken Coop (level 1): 2,400 G, 10 stone, 10 wood lumber

- Holds 8 chickens/ducks plus 6 silkworms = 14 total- Has 6 purple raised silkworm trays (feeds 8)

- Has 2 blue lower chicken/duck trays (feeds 4)- Hand feed rest or let all/others out to pasture daily- Contains (Mayonnaise Maker)- If purchased (processes items one-at-a-time/not entire stack)

- Buy level 2 Barn and Chicken Coop (no more upgrades)

- Animal Barn upgrade (level 2): 6,000 G, 22 stone, 22 wood lumber

- Has 8 stalls- Holds 8 livestock (sheep/goat/cow/horse/ostrich)- Contains Yarn Maker/Dye Pot/Cheese Maker/Butter Maker)

- If purchased (processes items one-at-a-time/not entire stack)

- Chicken Coop upgrade (level 2): 4,800 G, 22 stone, 22 wood

- Holds 10 chickens/ducks & 8 silkworms = 18 total- Has 8 purple raised silkworm trays (feeds 8)- Has 2 longer blue lower chicken/duck trays (feeds 6)- Hand feed rest or let all/others out to pasture daily

- Contains (Mayonnaise Maker)- If purchased (processes items one-at-a-time/not entire stack)

- While the coop can hold up to 18 you may only want 12 or less

in one building considering space and time- It is better to let all ducks/chickens out to pasture to feedon sunny & cloudy days (even in winter). Most of your time willbe consumed with trying to pick up products and feed the rightfowl as you pull your hair out unless you let them out to feed.

- Always hand feed or tray feed the silkworms as they can not gooutside.

Note:An egg in the coop incubator takes one available bird space.


52/386

An ostrich egg in the barn incubator takes one available space.Expected baby animal arrival takes one available animal space.

- Don't forget to start shipping crop products and animal products to raisethe star farm ranks of your farm which then raise the shop ranks so theyoffer more crop related products and animals/animal related products- General Store and Souffle Farm both can have up to 3 star ranks andboth start the game off with one star rank.

- Your horse requires an Animal star farm rank of 2 to be able to buy itfrom Brownie Ranch and then it takes a full season to grow up so youcan ride it (so start early). Raise the horses hearts to increase itsspeed. An ostrich takes a 3 star rank before it is sold at BrownieRanch. You will definitely want a faster way to get around as soonas possible.

- Meet Mira at the graveyard by the church (west & back from church) soshe will open up the accessories and gem/ore inspection/appraisal atthe blacksmith's shop (right side/inside).

- Meet Maya (golden/orange hair) at Waffle Town Square so she will be atthe Spring Flea Market selling at her booth (gives you Cooking & You).

- Meet Renee at Brownie Ranch (after boulder gone/broken) so she will be

selling at her booth at the Animal Festival. Also, at 1 heart and aftercompleting the 1st rainbow than go back to the windmill at BrownieRanch to trigger the windmill cutscene (for both girl & boy characters,for boy character this will be her 5th heart request).

- Meet all other characters as they move in. Don't forget to meet Sampsonand Sue on Toucan Island (take ferry) after 1st rainbow completed.

Rainbows & Goddess Tree:------------------------

This is a simplified explanation on rainbows/sprites:

- There are 5 rainbows that you need to make re-appear plus the HarvestGoddess Tree. Each rainbow has a corresponding sprite badge that youwill recieve when you bring the rainbow recipes to each of the spritesand they make the rainbows (all except Ben who needs help finding hisbadge).

- This is essentially the gist/walkthrough of the game -- reviving theisland.

- Of course, like any other Harvest Moon game, there is a WHOLE lot ofin-between things going on and everything is tied to each other to

complete tasks so it is not as easy as it sounds.

- You literally "make" each rainbow- Since you can have more than one fridge and more than one shelf per

house then you may want to reserve one fridge and one shelf forthe entire list of rainbow items so that you don't accidently usethem for other things

- See the entire rainbow recipe list under the Cooking section

- Each rainbow has a specific sprite associated with it and that sprite


53/386

will give you a recipe to "make"

- Daren: green sprite - Waffle Town (opens West Gull Island & Ferry)- Ben: blue sprite - Maple Lake Area (Opens base/middle of Mt. Gelato)- Collin: yellow sprite - Gull Island (opens East Gull Island)- Alan: red sprite - Brownie Ranch (Opens summit of Mt. Gelato)- Edge: purple sprite - Mt. Gelato (Opens top of Goddess tree)

- Basically, the recipe is a list of needed items - some cooked, some not,etc.

- See the Rainbow Recipe Collection List for an easy list of allitems needed for all the rainbows. They are all also listed below.

- When you get these items (some rare), then you go back to the specificsprite with the items in your rucksack and re-water the flower under thespecific sprite tree (watering flower allows you to talk to and interactwith the sprite). This then gives the items to the sprite who makes therainbow appear.

- At the end of completing the 5 sprite trees/rainbows then you need torevive the Goddess Tree (has about 3 stages/steps to it). This also opensup Empire Falls/Secret Cave (hole behind Caramel Falls).

- Then you have the option of passing on your rucksack to your child (onceyou make the special rucksack - newgame+) or playing your original fileforever.

- You can run through the basic reviving part of the game for a entailedbut shorter version of the game OR you can finish everything else leftundone in the game (there will still b
