"Almost a copy"

It's basically the same as Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town.

To start off, the beginning was rather cheesy. You were apparently cheated into coming to the farm by some advertisment which the Mayor put up to attract people to come attend to the farm.

The most different thing is - you play as a girl. Of course, you'd be proposing to the guys. They are your rivals in the prequel, Rick (nerd), Gray (blacksmith's grandson), Kai (the summer shack dude), Cliff (the new guy) and the Doctor.

The weirdest thing is you have to be the one who proposes, using the same ol' Blue Feather. It's basically the same as Friends of Mineral Town, but in the female point of view. Yes, the girls /will/ rival you, and 'try' to snatch your husband-to-be away from you. So, to all players out there, act fast!

There are several glitches, such as... you have about 1000G yet you cannot purchase an item of 50G. And sometimes, the people can walk right /through/ you where else you can normally block them.

There is nothing much different, to be honest. The items you can collect for each season, the animals, characters... same! But extremely additive, trust me. I was hooked, and had to get my daily fix of a minimum of 2 hours.

The graphics are rather fine, but they are like the same as Friends of Mineral Town - not a pixel out of place.

Of course, there will be new events for you to find out... since all the Black/Blue whatever heart events'd be different somehow, since there are different people.

The music ... is basically the same, although I swear the background music for the season Autumn is a tad bit different. There's still those cute beeping sound when you try to put something in your fridge or exchange the placing of items in your rucksack...

I would strongly encourage you to play, especially if you're a fan of the series, like. Be careful not to get addicted!
