HARVEST MOON: More Friends of Mineral Town
GUIDE by Gwendy
version 1.5.1
made: 08/10/05
last updated: 07/12/06
***************************************************************************
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
+Updates+
07/12/06 - Hello again guys. I know it's been a while since my last update
and since I answered e-mails. It was mostly because of the
devastating death of my grandfather over the summer: something
that so far, I am having a very hard time coping with. Lolo Tanciong
was just the best grandfather ever! It was from him that I somewhat
inherited my talkativeness, my *humor* as most of you have said,
and he had supported me all throughout my life. He gave me and my
cousins his time, showing us how to fish, making fishing poles for
us, showing us how to feed pigs and chickens, telling us wonderful
stories of his life especially about the war, and most of all,
he gave us his undying and unconditional love which we still feel
today. I miss him something terrible...
Getting all choked up here. Back to business. This is now version
1.5.1, since I did a bit of changing in the TABLE OF CONTENTS,
as well as some instructions on easy navigation through the guide.
Added the guys' LOVE items (meaning items that they REALLY REALLY
like so you can get 'em to love you back real quick). Added a more
questions in the FAQs and some websites that are hosting this FAQ.
Also, there's an added section to this guide called Gamers' Tips,
which, is some tips on playing the game from you gamers, which I
can't seem to put up anywhere but another section. I also added
My Requests section, which is (you guessed it) my requests for
this guide. Added some more codes and tips too. Enjoy!
01/10/06 - Happy New year! Corrected some more stuff, added some URLs that
have been using this guide. Also added more credits to people
who added in some stuff. Also got the floor locations for the pink
diamond. Also added more to Cliff's info and the FAQs.
12/28/05 - Whoa! Long time since my last update huh? Been busy with school
lately and just found the time during the holidays. I added some
more sites that hosted this FAQ/Walkthrough and corrected a few
stuff as well as add in some credits. I'll need some time to
reoarganize my heaps of e-mails so please don't be mad if your
submission/addition/correction was overlooked.
09/20/05 - Made some corrections and such, esp. in the Kitchen Cassanova
section. Made some grammar corrections, added more events, more
tips and more credits to the respective people who helpfuly
provided some great info. Thanks, guys!
09/12/05 - Added some more info one where to acquire the "All BGM" and more
"Queen of the Night". Due credits are given to the people who
provided the information. Thanks guys! Also added one more link
to a site somewhere. Also added some master codes. A lot of people
don't seem to need it, but seems some still do. I don't know if it'll
work though. Someone also provided me another master code, though,
I don't use it myself. More questions in FAQs too.
09/01/05 - Completed the Heart Events description for all the guys. Also
corrected some schedules for those events, most esp. Cliff's.
I've finished making the guy schedules. More tips and warning in
Fencing it Up and more questions answered in FAQ. Except for some
minor details, the guide is pretty much complete now. WHEW!
08/29/05 - I finally found the e-mail where my cousin got most of the cheat
codes! Give your applause to Solomon Warrior, duely credited in the
CREDITS section. Also give a hand to Nate, who gave me a thorough
and detailed tip on using stones as fences. Thanks Nate! Also added
more Codebreaker codes of my own. The entire Character events section
has been revised and I added in more events. I'm not sure, but I
think it's complete now...or maybe I'll have to add more soon. Added
some more specialty items. I got to adding info on the seven rings.
I plan to make a codebreaker guide soon.
8/25/05 - Completed the descriptions of Doctor, Gray, Rick, Kai and Won's heart
events. Also completed the descriptions in "In Your Dreams". Some new
sections will be added very very soon as well. And I've started revi-
sing my CHARACTER EVENTS section. Also completed the fising guide in
FISHERY. More questions answered in FAQS.
8/19/05 - I've completed the Girl Events. Added more prices & items to Sold.
I've also put some wonderful money-making tips under Gold-Digger.
To those wondering about Van's Favorite Thing, check Specialty
Items. Also added a great purpose to the Golden Lumber. See FAQs.
8/18/05 - My first official update! Just decided to edit some more stuff. I
added some more cheats, more tips and the descriptions of the guys.
Some new sections have been added as well. Just go over the table of
contents as well as the whole of the guide. I think that's all for
now. Please note that these are only work in progress and more will
be added in the next few updates so please don't send any additions
until I announce the completion of this guide (seen in gamefaqs as a
full-circle, not half) or else you may not be credited for your
contributions.
________________________________________________________________________________
Got comments? Suggestions? Questions? Additions? E-mail me and I'll answer
them or credit you!
Because of the enormous SPAM mail that I've been getting, I decided to
open up a new e-mail for all questions and I won't be displaying it as
prominently as before. The new e-mail is
hmUNDERSCOREgwendyATyahooDOTcomDOTph
Try deciphering that for change! Hah! That way, only truly desperate people
can e-mail me.
If you have any questions regarding gameplay, please see FAQs to see
if your questions have already been answered.

Please ask my permission first before posting this in your website
or whatever. And do not claim this guide as your own and don't even think of
changing anything here! I put a lotta work on this!
If I am unable to answer your e-mail, I'm so sorry. I am a very busy girl.
I'm just gonna shorten what I previously wrote and say that I have my own
life to live beyond Harvest Moon (though don't you just wish you could have
a farm with rapidly growing crops and watch the dough roll in?). So please
don't get angry if I can't respond immediately.
Also, I DO NOT claim to be the supreme master of Harvest Moon so if I can't
answer your question, don't be mad. I only wrote this guide (I claim to
be a master writer hehehe) to help fellow gamers like myself. Enjoy!

FIRST THING'S FIRST!!!
This guide is for those who already have a bit of knowledge using GBA and have
preferably played this game before. This guide contains very little details on
controlling the game but simply gives some tips and tricks to make your gaming
experience enjoyable.
ANOTHER THING you have to remember is that this guide is more for Visualboy
Advance users so if you don't have that program (which is illegal BTW), you
may not understand some stuff here.
ALSO, you have to know of course, that a rom is ILLEGAL if you don't have the
actual game cartridge/cd and should be deleted from your PC within 24 hours.
I share one with a cousin, since we both paid for it.
If you have anything to add, questions, comments and suggestions, e-mail or PM
me and I'll gladly answer your queries and credit you for anything that will
be added here (See top or E-mailing Queries). Make sure to read the
E-mailing Queries section first!

I. ABOUT
+ABOUT HARVEST MOON: More Friends of Mineral Town+
Created by: NATSUME
Harvest Moon is the only farming game in the world. It's fun and you can play
it for months and never get everything in the game. It's somewhat similar to
an RPG and the Sims. If you've played Friends of Mineral Town before, get
ready for a nostalgic feel! Other than you the fact that you get to play the
girl, many exciting changes have been made since the boy version.
You can grow crops, buy and sell things, go fishing, make friends, get a
boyfriend, get married, have a family, expand your farm and loads more stuff!
There are even great festivals which you can attend throughout all four
seasons!
One set back is that this game requires loads of patience (which I have) so
if you have A.D.D.** or something, you might wanna go cheat (Hey! Even
someone as patient as me do it!) **Attention Deficit Disorder...you fool...
+About Me+
Hi! My name's Gwendy (not that anyone cares). I'm a girl, and as you can
see, I'm an absolute fan of Harvest Moon games, particularly Friends of
Mineral Town. I just got so hooked in the series. I saw that some guides
don't provide as much infos so I decided to make my own. I studied hard
and found some neato tricks that I would like to share with everyone else.
Harvest Moon first came to the SNES Consoles and GB Color consoles even
then, I couldn't stop playing. Until that is, Harvest Moon: Friends of
Mineral Town came to GBA. I knew I just gotta grab it and when I did, I
got hooked. I went crazier the moment I finally got my copy of More Friends
of Mineral Town. And so comes this guide. I hope this will help you.
It's my 2nd game guide after my FoMT guide!
Oh, just to inform you. I didn't think people would ask more stuff about me,
so I decided to add in some stuff. I'm a Filipina, born and raised in
Mindanao, Philippines. I can speak fluent Bisaya, Tagalog and English.
I was born on July 30, 1985. I am a cartoonist, writer and student all
rolled into one.

III. BEGINNING
+Starting the Game+
Click start. Enter your name. Enter your Birthday. Enter you farm's name.
Enter your dog's name and you're all set!
+Prologue+
You start as a young woman (maybe 18-20 yrs old). You live in the city and
dream of getting away from all the hustle and bustles of your boring life.
You decide to read the morning paper and lo and behold! There's an ad of a
supposedly wonderful farm up for sale and at a pretty low price! You start
imagining what a great life you'd have there: riding a horse, playing with
your dog, relaxing in the mountains...EUREKA! You'll buy it! You then call
the realtor and close the deal.
However, when you arrive, you find nothing but a beat down old farm in need
of a major overhaul: definitely nothing like the one described in the ad.
A man comes by and asks if you're a tourist. You explain that you're the one
who bought the farm after seeing the ad and he starts laughing at you. He is
Mayor Thomas. He says that you're not the first one who got tricked into
buying the farm. He continues to laugh at your expense and you get so angry,
you hit him with a hammer! WHAM! He yelps and apologizes, asking you to stop
hitting him. You have the option to continue hitting or not, though I don't
really know how this affects the game.
After you calm down, the mayor apologizes again. He then learns that you've
quit your job and left your apartment just to buy the farm. He sympathizes
and tells you that you can stay and he'll do his best to help you. If you
don't want to, credits will roll and the game ends. If you choose to stay,
your new Harvest Moon adventure begins!

________________________________________________________________________________
V. TOOLS & ACTIONS:
Press START and go to RUCKSACK MENU. Select tool/item.
Press B to use tool/item.
+Basic Tools & Actions+
1.) Chop Branches/Wood
Tool: Axe (free)
2.) Break Rocks/Boulders
Tool: Hammer (free)
3.) Cut Grass/Weeds/Plants/Crops
Tool: Sickle (free)
4.) Till Ground (for planting or searching buried items)
Tool: Hoe (free)
5.) Water Plants
Tool: Watering Can (free)
6.) Fishing/Angling
Tool: Fishing Rod (free from Zack)
+Other Tools+ (buy these from Saibara the blacksmith)
Brush = brush cows, sheep & horse to increase affection
Milker = used for milking cows
Shears = used to cut wool from sheep
+Upgradable Tools+
Upgraded tools are tools which are much more powerful and much more
helpful around the farm. There are six upgradable tools: axe, hammer,
sickle, hoe, watering can and fishing rod. First things you'll need are
the right ores and money. You can find the ores in the Spring Mine
(cave near hotspring) by breaking the rocks with your hammer.
*Ore Locations:
1.)Copper = Level 1 & Lower
2.)Silver = Level 1 & Lower
3.)Gold = Level 3 & Lower
4.)Mystrile = Level 7 & Lower
5.)Mythic = Level 60 & Lower (discussed later)
+How to Upgrade+
Go to Saibara, the blacksmith(he's a grumpy old man who lives in the
first house you see when going to town from the main entrance of your
farm). Bring the ore you want your tool to be upgraded with and of course,
the tool you want to have upgraded. Make sure you have the money too.
It'll take a few days for him to finish a tool, depending on the ore but
it usually takes 2-3 days.
*Upgrading Costs:
1.)Copper = 1,000 G
2.)Silver = 2,000 G
3.)Gold = 3,000 G
4.)Mystrile = 4,000 G
5.)Mythic = 50,000G (discussed later)
+Using Upgraded Tools+
Upgraded tools require more power than your previous normal tools.
To harness that power, hold B and let go. The higher the upgrade, the
longer it will need for you to hold the B button. If it doesn't work the
first time, you'll have to do it again.
MAJOR TIP:
If you want to save money, you can wait until all tools can be upgraded
for Mystrile. You can see this by pressing SELECT to go to the MAIN MENU.
Press LEFT or RIGHT until you reach a TOOLS GRAPH, where you can see as
to what ore your tool can be upgraded to. You can also hang out by the
hotspring and use the tool several times until you get it to be upgraded
for Mystrile. Once you turn blue, just take a dip in the hotspring for
1-2 hours(game time). Get out and start using the tool again. Jumping to
Mystrile saves on the money since it's only 4000G upgrade per tool unlike
the normal step-by-step upgrading, which can cost up to 10,000G per tool!
And to think you have 6 upgradable tools!
+Using Items+
Like the tools, you can also use some items (seeds, medicine, magic medicine).
To do this, select an item from the RUCKSACK MENU and equip it. Press B.
+Eating Items+
Food items of course, can be eaten (while drinks can be drank). To do this,
select a food item in the RUCKSACK MENU and equip it. Once you have it in
your hands, hold L while pressing B or press them both at the same time.(L+B)
+Special Tools+
There are 3 particular types of special tools which are several times more
powerful than Mystrile Tools. These are the Cursed Tools, Blessed Tools and
the Mythic Tools.
<<Cursed Tools>>
These are really powerful tools which you can find on certain levels of the
Winter/Lake Mine. To acquire these, you have to dig up on the floor until
you eventually find it. Note that when you equip these, it won't come off.
The only way to remove it is to have the curse lifted by Carter at
the church. Also, cursed tools suck up a lot of stamina.
Tool Name: Where to get: How to Bless:
C.Fishing Rod Level 29 Use 225 times
C.Hoe Level 39 Have Carter bless it 10 times
C.Axe Level 49 Use 225 times
C.Hammer Level 59 Equip 10 days straight
C.Watering Can Level 69 Bless 10 times
C.Sickle Level 79 Equip 10 days straight
TIP: For cursed tools that need to be used 225 times, you can do this
during a festival since you NEVER collapse during a festival.
Make sure you're in the venue. This also works with some
CHARACTER EVENTS. Also, for those that needed to be equipped 10
days STRAIGHT, that's exactly what you have to do so you can only
gather stuff until the 10 days is over. DO NOT HAVE CARTER REMOVE
THE CURSED TOOL at any point in time until the 10 days is over.
It's best you enlist the help of the harvest sprites.
<<Blessed Tools>>
These are tools whose curse has been lifted. Meaning, they were once your
cursed tools. The obvious advantages are that they don't suck up as much
stamina and you can remove them whenever you like.
<<Mythic Tools>>
These are the most powerful tools in the game and they suck up less stamina
than the blessed tools. Requirements are a TRUCKLOAD of money, all 6 blessed
tools and a Mythic stone for the tool you want to make Mythic. You can get
the Mythic stone by going to the Spring Mine and digging around level 60 and
some lower. These ores will only appear once you have all your cursed tools
turned to blessed tools.
Want the easy way out? Go to the MAKING MONEY Section under the GOLD-DIGGER
chapter and check out the Mythic Money tip (needs emulator). Yes, you can
get the Mythic stones through there without all the trouble of digging up in
mines where the possibility of getting one is very slim. Also, if you follow
that Mythic Money tip, you don't have to have all 6 of the blessed tools.
Just have enough money and Mythic stones to use for upgrading. The cheats are
provided in the later part of this guide.
Get around 24 mythic stones from the H.Goddess Rock-Paper-Scissors game in
your Vacation House/Town Cottage. That's four for each tool. Why? One is for
upgrading while the other 3 you can ship. That's 60,000G all in all since one
upgrade to Mythic costs 50,000G. That way, you earn an extra 10,000G per tool.
Great way to make money! That means the upgrading is practically free!
It's like Saibara's paying you 10,000G to get your tool upgraded to Mythic!
(Mwahahahaha! Revenge on the old fart! Hehehe...)
Want the even EASIER way out? There are cheats in the BREAKING THE CODES
section where you can have all 6 mythic tools even at the beginning
of the game! Cool, huh?
________________________________________________________________________________
VI. SPECIAL ITEMS:
+Power Berries+
These are berries which give you more stamina. Think of it as an energy level.
Hehehe. You can find it all over the game.
<<Regular Power Berries>>
- Dig in your field
- Throw an egg in the H.Goddess Spring for several days
- Win the horse race. Make sure you don't have anything in your hands.
- Win the frisbee contest. Practice with your dog beforehand to make sure
he wins.
- Use Mystrile Pole to fish it at the dock
- The T.V. Shopping network will sell it for 10,000G if you bought
everything they sell (and I mean EVERYTHING)
- When Mother's Hill Lake freezes, go behind the cave and hit the A button
- Dig in level 19 of Winter/Lake Mine
- Dig in 100th level of Spring Mine
<<Blue Power Berry>>
- Throw a cucumber in Mother's Hill Lake for 10 days straight. The Kappa
will give you a blue power berry, which decreases the effect of bad
weather on your health
+Special Gems+
These are special orbs that can help you a lot esp. with your health.
I'll tell you where and how to find it here.
1.)Truth Gems - Black orbs. Once you collect all 9, you won't need to go to
the Clinic for check-ups
Where/How to get:
- Exchange for 1000 medals at the horse race
- Buy for 50,000G from Won
- 2nd floor of the library, middle shelves, furthest shelf to the right
- Lamp post between the church and the path to Rose Square
- Look in horse's trough in stable
- Examine your doghouse (once you have your house upgraded)
- Play New Year's TV gameshow in your Vacation House/Town Cottage
- Investigate the Calendar in your Mountain Cottage
- Take 8 gems of truth to the Mayor's house and investigate his refrigerator
2.) Goddess Gem - Collect 9 of these white orbs and it will restore some stamina

+The Seven Rings+
Do I hear someone in the back mumbling "My precious"? Hehehe. No, this ain't a
LoTR kind of thing, but there are 7 rings which you can collect throughout the
game. You can acquire these after finishing some tasks. The rings don't serve
much purpose though, other than each one is worth 30 Heroine points.
Mailbox Ring
- This ring just appears in your mailbox one day.
Thanksgiving Ring
- During the Winter 14 Thanksgiving, make sure you give these boys some
chocolate: Cliff, Doctor, Gray, Rick (Kai's in the city). By the Spring
14 Thanksgiving, the first guy to come to your house (to give you cookies)
will give you one of the rings instead. This can also happen if the guy
has a red heart for you by the Spring Thanksgiving, though you didn't
give him chocolate the previous winter. Also note that the ring CAN be
received from Kai through checking the mailbox first before getting
the Spring Thanksgiving present from the guy in front of your doorstep.
Starry Night Ring
- The first time you participate in the Starry Night Festival (Winter 23&24),
the guy you chose to dine with will give you one of the rings.
Wedding Ring
- Obvious, isn't it? You get this after your wedding. You don't get to see
your hubby put it on your finger or anything. You'll just see it in
your EARNINGS menu.
Wife's Birthday Ring
- On your first birthday as a married woman, your husband will give you this
ring as a present.
10th Year Anniversary Ring
- After you've been married for 10 years, you're husband will give you this
as an anniversary gift
10,000,000 steps
- Once you've acquired that number of steps in your pedometer, the H.Goddess
will appear and give you a ring.
+Specialty Items+
For the most part, I got these off cheats. Except for Van's Favorite
Thing and the Goddess Gift, the rest of the items here can be retrieved
by connecting to Gamecube's Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful Life and
giving "Van" his "Favorite Thing" so he'll be able to sell those special
items for you.
Van's Favorite Thing
- You'll receive a note in the mail, saying you've won the lottery.
The prize you get is Van's favorite thing(looks like Karen's wine
from FoMT). You're supposed to take it to Van but unless you're able
to connect to Gamecube's Another Wonderful Life, you won't be able
to do so. Instead, you can keep it in your shelf or sell it to Won
for 48,000-57,000G(this only happens if you've unlocked Won's selling
feature) You'll win the lottery ever so often so I suggest you start
collecting these bottles to gain more income.
Goddess Gift
- You'll recall this as Elli's pressed flower in the boy version.
It is said that this thing is rare, but not valuable. The latter part
is wrong. Indeed, this pretty white flower is rare, but IT IS valuable!
You can sell it to Won for 1 million G!!! How do you get it? You need
to give the Harvest Goddess 10 Mystery flower (aka Queen of the Night/
White flower), which blooms at the peak of Mother's Hill on summer nights.
You can get this after an event with Ellen. See CHARACTER EVENTS for more
details. The easiest way to get the flower, however, is to play Won's
Apple Game. After the final event with him, you can challenge Won to an
apple shuffle. If you win 10 times in a row, he'll stop the game, say
you're no ordinary farmer and gives you a Queen of the Night instead
of the usual tickets. Thanks to timmytation for this info!
TV Changer
- You'll recall this as Popuri's Mudball in the boy version. This thing
is used to fast forward the episodes of extra shows (My Dear Princess,
Aaron Changes, Mechabot Ultror, etc) and it also works with the TV in
your cottage(though this doesn't affect the TV Shopping Network).
To use, hold the TV Changer in your hands and approach the TV.
When you get to the extra channel, press A and you'll be able to surf
through the episodes.
Shopping Master
- You'll recall this as Ann's Broken Music Box in the boy version.
This thing is quite possibly the most useful specialty item of all.
You can shop at all shops, even Van's Wednesday shop (even if you
don't have AWL) through the comfort of your own home and at any time.
Just hold it in your hands and "Talk" to your mirror. It's also the most
valuable item in the game, worth 999,999,999G if you sell it to Won!!!!
(and so goes my theory of Ann being the one meant for the boy in FoMT).
Sorry. Only usable in your farmhouse.
Riddle Book
- You'll recall this as Mary's Great Book in the boy version. It's a quiz
book with some rather interesting and difficult questions. To use it,
hold it up your hands and check out the farthest left shelf on the
first floor of the library. If you get all 100 questions right, it will
Congratulate you and say your farming game points have gone up, though
I didn't see any change in my Farm Degree points. Weird.
All About Books
- You'll recall this as the Plant Encyclopedia in the boy version.
It has every book in the library, and even contains info on some
HM: Another Wonderful Life characters. To use it, hold it up your hands
and check out the farthest left shelf on the first floor of the library.
All About Letters
- You'll recall this as the Harvest Goddess 100 wins book in the boy
version. It's a book that contains all the letters you will ever receive
in the game. To use it, hold it up your hands and check out the farthest
left shelf on the first floor of the library.
All About BGM
- This is a recording of all BGMs in the game. You'll only be able to
listen for a moment though, and you can't use the music here as your
farm's background music. Put it in the record player to listen.
For the most part, I got the TV Changer, Shopping Master, Riddle Book,
All About Books, All About Letters, and All about BGM off cheats, since
I don't have a gamecube but you can buy it if you connect to Gamecube's
HM: Another Wonderful Life. Go to Van and give him that bottle you won
in the lottery (Van's Favorite Thing). WARNING! Make sure you already
have over 1 MILLION G in your invoice so that the item will be available.
If your money is lower than 1 MILLION, Van will only offer to sell you
Van's Favorite Thing for 10,000g, which is a rip-off considering you gave
him one for free. Be careful with this! To those who do not have Gamecube
or AWL, you can only get the other items thru cheats. Thanks a million to
sierramut, for giving me the info on how to acquire these.

VII. PLACES & SUCH:
+Maps+
This is a simple enough map, which indicates some important locations
in the game. You'll just have to search for the rivers and stuff yourself.
Please do not steal (even though I suck at ASCII art). :P

________________________________________________________________________________
IX. PREPARING YOUR FARM:
+Preparing the Land+
The farm has really been neglected for a long long time. That means a ton of
work for you. Here are some things you may have to do.
1.) Break boulders (upgrade your hammer 'til Mystrile or Gold)
2.) Break/remove rocks (your current hammer can break small rocks)
3.) Chop large tree trunks (upgrade your axe 'til Mystrile or Gold)
4.) Chop/remove branches (your current axe can break small rocks)
5.) Remove weeds (cutting with a sickle is good, but it takes stamina)
Yes, you may have to do a lot of upgrades before you can get your farm ready.
I suggest you finish upgrading your tools and preparing at least 1/4 or 1/6
of your land area before you start planting. Me, I finished all the
preparations in 8 days by working non-stop. Just take a dip in the hot springs
to rejuvenate. Don't have money for upgrading your tools? Check out the
MAKING MONEY section in the lower part of the guide.
+Planting Crops+
Once you have prepared the land, it's time to plant your crops. Buy seeds from
the Supermarket on the northern part of town or from Won (Zack's House).
Till your land with your HOE (if you're playing the first time, you'll very
likely find a POWER BERRY).
_ _ _
|_|_|_|
|_|_|_|
|_|_|_|
Yup, a 3x3 square since that's the maximum perimeter per bag of seeds.
Refer to this as one patch. You'll also have to make sure that your other
patches aren't as close. That way, you can still water and harvest your crops.
For a more organized farm, this is my suggestion:
- = Crop
V = Grass
---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVVVVV
---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVVVVV
---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVVVVV
VVV---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVV
VVV---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVV
VVV---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVV
---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVVVVV As you can see, I have the crops and grass in
---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVVVVV alternate portions so that I can easily harvest and
---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVVVVV water my crops. It may not be as good as others, but
VVV---VVVVVVVVV---VVVVVV it looks prettier.

+Fencing it Up+
Just like the first Harvest Moon game, you can put up fences to protect your
farm against wild dogs. I don't really bother with these though. Not only is
it a waste of time and lumber, you have to maintain it: taking it down when
it rots and replacing it. Sure, your animals will be safe, but who says you
have to let your animals out all the time? I myself keep my animals only in
my barn and I still end up with ten hearts (though it does take longer to get
this). But if you want your sheep and cows outside all the time to get more
wool and milk, build the fence. You can also just let your dog out. Try
letting it out once a wild dog is out. It's fun to watch!
To make a fence, simply take some lumber from your woodbin and put it on your
land. NOT THE GRASSY PART! The land you have to till. You can return the
lumber if you like by picking it up and returning it to the woodbin.
An advantage of getting your animals out is that you don't need to feed
them (if you have mature grass in the fenced area). Another, is that their
affection for you will rise quicker. Also, if they spend 600+ game hours
(or a little over 25 days, as added by JTR1029. Thanks!) outside, they'll
eventually produce (P)products and on occassion,(X)products, which both sell
for a lot of money. Just get your animals in during bad weather, as they won't
produce anything and they'll hate you.
And don't believe the myth that a rotten fence works as well as the good
fence. Once your fence rots, a wild dog CAN ENTER the area and scare your
animals. I saw this myself and had to whack it with a hammer. Always replace
rotting fences to prevent this. And don't be tempted to use the Golden Lumber!
There is however, one sure fire way to prevent wild dogs from entering your
fenced area and keep your animals safe: the stones. By using the stones as
your fences, the wild dogs will forever be kept at bay, especially since the
stones, of course, don't rot. But there are only a few in your farm. You'll
get more stones from hurricanes. This was suggested to me by Nate Bodine a
while back but I didn't want to put it in the guide without actually testing
it for myself and so I did and voila! The wild dog can't enter! You, your
horse, and your dog are the only ones (aside from the Harvest Sprites) who can
go in and out of the stone-fenced area. Thanks Nate!
This one was sent in by many gamers (far too many to mention and filled up
half my mailbox). You can actually use branches as alternatives for the
stones! They keep the dogs away and they don't rot too! I tried it out myself.
I use it to fence my chickens. Thanks to all those who sent in this useful
tip. You helped me there too :)
Of course, not everything in the game is perfect. Every 3 days or so, an animal
or a few more can get out of the stone fence but don't worry. This only happens
during mornings, a long long time before a wild dog gets to them. Just see to
your farm in the farm map every morning to find out how many got out. Then,
bring a bell and get 'em back in the fence.

+Plants+
These are some plants which you can...er...plant in your farm! Most of these
are flowers to...beautify your farm and all. Also, some can be shipped!
This is for farm beautification or if you want the flowers to be closer so you
can quickly give 'em to the townspeople. Also, unlike the boy version, these
flowers can be sold directly to Won. Oh, and some flowers rejuvenate your
stamina. I plant a lot of flowers and found that it takes longer for me to pass
out. That's just me so I dunno about you. The flower that rejuvenates the most
is the Autumn Red Magic Grass (not blue!). I recommend buying these if you're
rich
enough. The only important thing to buy here is GRASS for your animals. You'll
need to water your flowers so their growth won't be stunted.

XI. FISHERY
Fishing is one of the many ways you can earn money in this game. To fish,
you'll of course, need a fishing rod. Just go to Zack's house. You'll see an
event wherein he gives you the fishing rod for free (see CHARACTER EVENTS).
You can then start fishing. Of course, you'll have to upgrade your rod to
catch the bigger fishes.
The fishing rod is considered as one of the hardest things to upgrade (see
TOOLS GRAPH in your EARNINGS MENU) since it can take a while. The best you
can do is stand by the Hot Springs and press B over and over again. Once
you turn blue, jump in the hotsprings to recuperate. I once sacrificed a day's
worth just to have my fishing rod jump upgrade to mystrile.
**For more info on the Fishing rod, see TOOLS (scroll up).
**Note that for rod levels, you need at least that to catch the specified fish.
Once you catch the fish, you don't have to store it in your fridge. You now
have a fish pond (formerly a watering hole in the boy version) and it holds
100 of each fish (small, medium or large). Just approach the north side,
press A and choose a fish.
+River Fishes+
These are fishes you can find, where else, in the river! There are two parts:
Upstream, which is the river connected to Mother's Hill Lake, and Downstream,
which are the rivers found in the town (Poultry, Yodel and your Farm).
*Downstream - Down
*Upstream - Up
Fish Species: Rod Level: Where: Season:

can be fished off the rivers.

+Harvest Goddess Pond Fishes+
Yup! The site of the beautiful Harvest Goddess Falls and the "shrine" to the
Harvest Goddess. Other than offering stuff, you can fish here as well. Just
remember not to throw in your junk and discarded fishes in here, as the
goddess will think it's an offering (and hate you for it). Fishes here can
also be fished off the lake and rivers (except Silver Carp).

________________________________________________________________________________
XII. MINING BUSINESS:
I dunno if this was the source of Mineral Town's name, but it's in the mines
where you can find minerals and ores which are very important in the game.
There are two mines: Spring Mine and the Winter/Lake Mine.
Here's a list of the mines and what can be found in them. You'll need your
hoe to dig up the ground and your hammer to break the rocks. You may also want
to get some stamina recovering items like black grass (which you can dig up in
mines, eat immediately)or if you want to go deep down, you can buy BODIGIZERXL
and TURBOJOLTXL from the Clinic. Use these wisely. The best item to use
however, is the Elli Leaves.
<<SPRING MINE>>
Name: Level:
Copper All
Silver All
Gold 3 & lower
Mystrile 7 & lower
Orichalc 10 & lower
Adamantite 10 & lower

your fatigue as time passes.
- Levels: 0,40,60,80,120,140,160,180,255
NOTE: These can be found at random so don't blame me if you can't find it.
Careful not to go up the stairs immediately 'coz you'll go back to the
surface.
SEARCHING FOR STAIRS TIP:
Just to save you a bit of energy, there are places in the mine wherein you
can NEVER find the stairs going down: it's the perimeter around the stairs
going up. Here's what I mean:
X = Stairs going up/Where you came from
o = No stairs here EVER
ooo
oXo I think this was fixed during the game programming, so you can
ooo still manage to walk some spaces.
________________________________________________________________________________
XIII. FURNITURE & SUCH
+Big Bed+
This is one of the most important furnitures of the game. It's where you sleep.
You can buy a bigger bed from the T.V. Shopping Network. Buy it if you want to
get married.
+Bookshelf+
It's where your books and letters are stored. Books can be acquired once
you've purchased something new. The books are actually very useful tutorials.
Think of it as a mini-library. The letters, on the other hand, are mail that
you get from your mailbox. Once you investigate your mailbox, all your
letters will immediately be put here so you can read them again.
+Mirror+
Unlike in the boy version, wherein the mirror only tells you about the day
and your current physical condition, this time, the mirror allows you to change
the color of your overalls! Choose from the default blue or the other options:
blue, pink, red, green, white and orange. I personally prefer pink.
Makes my character more feminine. Frequently changing your clothes will impress
the boys. By changing clothes, I mean talk to him in one outfit, change, then
talk to him again.
+Clock+
Indicates the exact hours and minutes of the day.

slot, you can store up to 99 of one item.

This is where you can store non-food items likes ores, branches, flowers,
accessories and such. Like the fridge, it has 32 slots all in all and in each
slot, you can store up to 99 of one item.
+Makers+
Makers are machines that instantly convert one product to another, more
expensive product. There are three makers in this game:
Cheese Maker = turns milk into cheese
Yarn Maker = turns wool into yarn
Mayonnaise Maker = turns eggs into mayonnaise
To get a maker, go to Saibara, the blacksmith and have him make one for you.
The requirements are as follows:
- fully expanded chicken coop and/or barn
- one adamantite per maker
- 20,000G per maker
It's expensive, I know. But well worth it once you have the gold eggs,
gold wool and gold milk 'coz it sells for more and it lasts a lifetime.
+The Bath+
Once you have fully expanded your farm, you can ask Gotz to make you a bath.
This is where you can rejuvenate a bit of stamina and fatigue though it
takes 30 minutes of your (game)time.
+Vase+
Put flowers in to rejuvenate stamina. Buy from Won. I highly recommend the
Red Magic Grass which grows in fall, since it rejuvenates +10 stamina.
+Kitchen+
Cook Food here. Buy the complete set from the TV Shopping Network.
________________________________________________________________________________
XIV. GOLD-DIGGER:
+Making Money+
If you're just starting off on the game and have not yet upgraded or planted
anything in your farm, here are some ways to make quick bucks.
NOTE: Cheat codes are provided in the later part of the guide.
1.) 250,000G in one week (needs vba emulator)
- During the first five days of spring, the H.Goddess will have a
New Year's game show where you'll have to guess if the number is higher
or lower. Just surf the channels by going to your TV, press the B button
and use the directional buttons to locate the H. Goddess show
(try pressing the RIGHT button constantly). Play the New Year's Game Show.
Save game state(Shift+F1) then guess. If you get it wrong, hit F1 and it
will take you back to before you got the answer wrong. Just keep trying
until you get it right. Play until 70 wins to get the Pirate Treasure,
which is worth 10,000G. Play 5 times(since the show runs 5 times a day)
and you get 50,000G a day, which is 250,000G in 5 days. Sure, it may get
monotonous, but if you want quick bucks, this is the way to do it.
You can also try for 25,000G a day or 125,000G in five days by winning
until 60 to get the Fish Fossil worth 5000G. Another one would be for
10,000G a day or 50,000G in 5 days by winning until 10 to get the
Relaxation Tea Leaves worth 2000G. Just remember to play the game 5
times a day.
2.) Free Money
- I dunno why I named this that. It's mostly 'coz you get these money
making items for free in places in town. Gather as many medicinal herbs
as you can 'coz they sell quite well. Fishes are great sources of money
too but you'll need to upgrade your pole to get bigger fishes.
Mushrooms, esp. poisonous ones, sell a lot. Digging in the mines also
helps. There's also honey every morning at the tree in your farm.
If you turn blue, simply go to sleep, go to your bath or dip in the
hotspring for a few hours.
3.) Non-stop Mine Digging
- Dig in the mines (preferably Winter Mine) and fill your basket and
rucksack with expensive minerals. Dig up as much gold coins as you can
too(which doesn't take a slot in your rucksack and is instantly added to
your invoice)until you turn blue. Then, go to hotspring and dip for
2-3 hours(game time)before going back to the mine and digging up again
(empty your rucksack first by putting items in your shelf)
4.) Horse Race Gamble
- During the Spring and Fall Horse Festivals, place your bets and win lots
of medals. Exchange the medals for broaches, which sells for 2,000G each
(necklaces cost the same but it takes 20 medals so broaches, which
takes only 18, costs less but sells for the same price). Fill up your
rucksack and your basket. You can even carry an extra one in your hands.
WARNING: If you entered the festival with your horse and won for the
first time, you must not have anything in your hands or else you won't
get the Power Berry.
5.) Crop Madness
- In spring, plant cabbages (250G a piece) and lots of turnips (prepare for
busy weeks since it grows very fast)
- In summer, plant pineapples (500G a piece), preferably 8 patches.
Buy pineapple seeds from Won during spring so you can plant it as early
as the first day of summer. That way, you can harvest twice since it
takes 20 days for these money-making babies to grow.
- In Fall, plant Sweet Potatoes. Lots and lots of it! You can even make
this the exclusive crop for your farm (at least during the season).
It grows fast and costs a lot (120G a piece). Get ready for busy weeks
'coz you're gonna need a lot of time harvesting everything
6.) Non-stop Fishing
- During the Summer Beach Festival, you can fish without wasting time or
stamina. Just bring your basket with you and fish lots of fish.
If you have the blessed or mythic fishing rod, you can fill your basket
with pirate treasure. Another festival wherein you can do this is the
Summer Fireworks Festival.
WARNING!!! If you already have a husband, DO NOT FISH DURING FESTIVALS!
If you do, his affection rate for you WILL drop.
7.) Mythic Money (needs vba emulator)
- You can only get this in the later parts of the game, when you have the
Vacation House. You can use cheats to earn loads of cash and get the
V.House early. Anyway, once in the V. House, you get a T.V with 3
different channels. Every Saturday, the Harvest Goddess plays the Rock-
Paper-Scissors game with you. Just like tip#1, save game state(Shift+F1)
then guess. If you get it wrong, hit F1 and it will take you back to
before you got the answer wrong. Just keep trying until you get
it right. Play until 40 wins to get the Mythic Stone, which is worth
20,000G! If you don't want to use it for upgrades, you can ship it.
Problem is, you can only play this once a day. You may also play up to
20 to get the Alexandrite(10,000G) or 30 to get the Pink Diamond(10,000G)
8.) Bargaining with Won
- This is one of the latest features of the mineral town series. After the
second event with Won, you'll be able to sell your products to him,
mostly, at a higher price. Just be careful not to get tricked into
selling for lower. To sell, bring your items in your rucksack and hands.
Approach Won's Orange box counter and talk to him from there. Select the
selling feature. Make sure you have the item in your hands. Won will name
a price and you can either agree or not. I suggest you try and sell
expensive stuff like the pink diamond since he throws in some major
incentive to it. But just be careful. This guy can be sneaky.
9.) 25 MILLION G in one week (needs vba emulator)
- You heard me. I said 25 MILLION G! Too good to be true but it's true!
However, this only happens if you've unlocked Won's selling feature.
During the first five days of spring, the H.Goddess will have a
New Year's game show where you'll have to guess if the number is higher
or lower. Just surf the channels by going to your TV, press the B button
and use the directional buttons to locate the H. Goddess show
(try pressing the RIGHT button constantly). Play the New Year's Game Show.
Save game state(Shift+F1) then guess. If you get it wrong, hit F1 and it
will take you back to before you got the answer wrong. Just keep trying
until you get it right. Play until 100 wins to get the H.G High/Low 100
wins, which is worth 1 MILLION G when you sell it to Won! Play 5 times
(since the show runs 5 times a day) and you get 5 MILLION G a day, which
is 25 MILLION G in 5 days. Sure, it may get monotonous, but if you want
quick bucks, this is the way to do it. Just remember to play the game 5
times a day and sell it to Won, not to Zack (shipping box).
10.) 1 MILLION G per week (needs vba emulator)
- This only happens if you've unlocked Won's selling feature and when you
have the Vacation House/Town Cottage. Once in the V. House, you get a
T.V with 3 different channels. Every Saturday, the Harvest Goddess plays
the Rock-Paper-Scissors game with you. Just like tip#1, save game state
(Shift+F1) then guess. If you get it wrong, hit F1 and it will take you
back to before you got the answer wrong. Just keep trying until you get
it right. Play until 100 wins to get the R-P-S Certificate, which is
worth 1 MILLION G when you sell it to Won! Problem is, you can only play
this once a day. You may also play up to 40 to get the Mythic stone
(20,000G), 20 to get the Alexandrite(10,000G) or 30 to get the Pink
Diamond(10,000G). But better choices would be the unused items ranging
from 50-90+ wins, worth no less than 580,000G-970,000G. Just remember to
sell it to Won, not to Zack (shipping box).
11.) Lottery winner
- This only happens if you've unlocked Won's selling feature. Some time
in Winter, you'll receive a note in the mail, saying you've won the
lottery. The prize you get is Van's favorite thing(looks like Karen's
wine from FoMT). You're supposed to take it to Van but unless you're
able to connect to Gamecube's Another Wonderful Life, you won't be able
to do so. Instead, you can keep it in your shelf or sell it to Won for
48,000-57,000G! You'll win the lottery ever so often so I suggest you
start collecting these bottles.
12.) Helping the Mayor
- This only happens if you've unlocked Won's selling feature. Sometimes,
Mayor Thomas will come over and ask you a favor. If you succeed in the
task, he'll give you a Golden lumber, which you can sell to Won for
48,000-57,000G! He'll ask favors ever so often so I suggest you
start collecting these lumber. Nice to be helpful, ain't it?
+Sold+
Here's a listing of the things you can sell and how much they are worth.
Unlike in FoMT, this time, after one of his events, you can actually sell
stuff directly to Won, mostly at a higher price! For animal products, this
depends on the day. For other items, it's a touch and go thing. Just keep
turning down offers 'til you're satisfied with the price. But the profit
may sometimes only amount to 30G more than Zack's and you have to rush to
Won's shop and sell stuff to him individually. You can have your pick of
Won and Zack, depending on your need for extra income.

+Girl Events+
These are events which are triggered as you expand your farm and strengthen
your friendship with your fellow girls.
Slumber Party
- This event happens once you buy the big bed. Just before you dive
under the covers, you hear an unexpected knock on the door. All the
rival girls barge in the house. They've heard about your big bed and
came to see it. They then decide to have a slumber party and you
agree but the bed doesn't hold all 5 of them so they decide to leave.
After that, you can finally go to sleep.
Cooking for Friends
- This event happens once you expand your house and buy the kitchen.
Go to your complete kitchen and try to cook after 8AM. There'll be a
knock on the door and the rival girls will enter the house. They wanna
see your cooking skills first hand and so they each take a seat and wait
for you to whip up something. Each girl will ask for a different dish so
talk to them to find out what it is. If you're able to cook the dish and
give it to the girl, you'll increase your friendship with her. This event
may be triggered more than once.
Here's a list of their requested food:
Ann - Cheese Fondue, Hotcake, or Mushroom Rice
Elli - Hot Milk, Sandwich, or Strawberry Milk
Karen - Fried Potato, Popcorn, or Tempura
Mary - Chocolate Cake, Relaxation Tea, or Veggie Juice
Popuri - Fried Rice, Omlette, or Scrambled Eggs
+Individual Girl Events+
If these events seem familiar to you, that's 'coz these are the Black Heart
events for the boy version.
Name: Schedule/Events:
Ann - Any day bet. 10:40AM-1PM; Doug's Inn
Walk into the inn. Ann will welcome you and have her dad give
you a free meal. Agree to have the meal and she and Doug will be
delighted. Of course, Doug says it's only free the first time.
Elli - Any day; Any time; Clinic
Stu is in the clinic with Elli. Stu shows her a bug and Elli
freaks out. She scolds Stu. Stu says that you understand him
because you're still young at heart. Say 'not really'. Oh, he
cries but Elli is happier that someone else reprimanded her
bratty brother.
Karen - Wed/Fri; 10AM-1PM; Supermarket
Karen will welcome you to her store. She says how hard it must
be for you in the farm and asks if you could use some help.
Say yes and she goes to her dad and asks him to give you a bag of
grass seeds free. Jeff starts to protest but Karen tells him they
should share. You then receive the grass seeds free of charge.
Mary - Any day except Monday; 10AM-1PM; Library
Mary is thinking so hard about something, she didn't see you and
almost bumped into you. She apologizes, saying that she had a lot
on her mind. Ask her if you could help and she'll talk about it and
stuff like that.
Popuri - Wed/Fri; 10AM-6PM; Poultry Farm; As you exit from the Blacksmith shop
You must not have anything in your hands. A chicken will run at you
and you will catch it. Popuri will thank you and ask if you like
chickens. Say yes and she'll be happy.
+Character Events+
Just as there are Heart events with the bachelors(later part of the guide),
you also have character events. I don't have the exact schedules of all of
them since I'm still trying to make good friends with the people. If you can't
see the event, it's either the weather is wrong or you haven't made good enough
friends with the people around you. Also, I don't know how many events each
character has so don't ask me. If you have additions/corrections, e-mail me and
I'll credit you. WARNINGS: Spoilers ahead!
*** All events are arranged randomly
How to know if you're good friends:
1.) Change in the way he/she talks to you(for most characters)
2.) Allows you in the house/shop as early as 6AM(for some characters only)
3.) Allows you in rooms previously locked before
