 My wife's playing it... March 29, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
My wife loves these games, and now that she flew through Professor Layton, she's deep into this. Some of the controls take getting used to, but it's the classic Harvest Moon formula mixed up with some RPG and adventure elements. A must-have for Harvest Moon fans.
Rune Factory: A Harvest Moon Fantasy & Patience March 25, 2008

A good game for a person willing to put in the time and patience in "farming" and "logging." I play it while watching TV. It has become a bit addictive, since I do have the time and patience. This is a game that I bought a guide for, as things need to be done in the proper sequence and time to get anywhere with the peripherals. You could just do the minimum and hack your way thru the caves, but there are a lot of "daily living" features that you would miss and is really the over-all purpose of the game.
 A great game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! March 25, 2008
I bought Rune Factory several months ago, and it is a lot of fun!!
It has good Graphics, a Good storyline, and doesent get boring.
Harvest Moon on the rocks. March 24, 2008

basically this game is everything you love from the harvest moons of the past, minus crappy controls and camera angles, and mindless droning at the fields day by day, you gain the ability to control beasts found throughout the game that have multiple purposes.
Though it is not all an improvement, the fact that you capture these beasts in a cave makes the game much less interactive, often spending strings of days in a cave for great fortune, and there is no farm, or vineyard, or other sort of section in the town that gives you a little change on your day to day basis.
The mining aspect is a nice system, and you can make SUBSTANTIAL income early in the game through it. The monsters need work, if you set them to water your field, only one preforms at a time, and waters every tilled plot, whether there is a plant in it or not.. which wastes time and make it somewhat worthless.
The game is fun, worth a measly what, thirty some dollars, if your an addict to games you'll play it for hours, but thats like saying if you like milk you'll drink it for breakfast... Either way, if you like harvest moon.. and the gameplay of pokemon and harvest moon.. this is the byproduct of the two.
Super freaking addictive!!! March 14, 2008

I am someone who loves Harvest Moon games anyway, but this one takes the cake! Even though it's just for the DS, the graphics are great and the gameplay is highly addictive. Where other Harvest Moons can finally get boring when you have made more money than you can possibly spend, have bought every type of cow, crop and tree, this Harvest moon has numerous things for you to work on for awhile. There are several caves in the game, with different seasons and monsters, and you can't enter them automatically, you have to earn a pass. You can grow crops in the caves, but they have monsters, and in the second cave, the monsters are pretty tough so I am trying to work myself up to conquering that cave. Upgrading tools is much more of a processes than in the other Harvest moons so I am still working on upgrading mine. Instead of cows and chickens you have monsters for livestock, and they can do different things, like bees that make honey for you, and I have an archer monster I like to take in the caves with me to help me fight. Once a monster likes you more (you can see your rating on the menu of how friendly they are) you can get some of them to water or harvest crops for you!
There are many women to choose from for marriage this time, and you can also check your friend levels with guys on the game as well. Everyone has a friend and love level for you. You can upgrade your house but it costs $200,000 so it will be awhile before I get that much money. There are things called runes in the game that appear when you have 9 new crops to harvest, and they replenish your rune power energy. Gone are the days where you had to keep watching your farmer pause because he was too tired, and having to quit doing stuff because he was too tired! This time there is a rune meter that shows the energy you have left to do work, and when that is gone you still have your hit point gauge, so plenty of energy and if you have runes to pick up, you can extend the amount of work you do in a day. Also at 3pm you can take a bath at the bathhouse and that gives you full runepower and hitpoints.
I think this game will keep me entertained longer than other Harvest moons have, and it's so addicting I have to limit myself on what days I can play it, because once I pick it up, the evening is gone!
