Harvest Moon: A New Beginning for Nintendo 3DS Reviews by Gamers

This game starts out rather slow but picks up speed after about a month of game time. Before long there isn't enough time in the day to do everything you want to. Try to ship 30 yams and potatoes in the 1rst spring and fall because they are requirements in the town restoration plans. I had to wait an extra year because I didn't ship enough potatoes. It's also a good idea to save everything you can until you need them(branches, bottles etc.) because you will need them for some of the blueprints. You should also save one of each of the herbs and other plants so you can make seeds once you have makers. Once you have all 3 areas of your farm open you can have up to 3 barns/coops but only one pet barn. If you have a dog/cat you can select them from the barn menu and ask them to help with either the livestock or the chickens so it's a good idea to have at least 2(you're only allow a total of 4 pets and one horse, the horse lives in the livestock barn). Raise your quality of flowers so you can make high quality perfume and get high quality honey/royal jelly but the hives are abandoned for the winter and have to be refilled the next spring so it's a good idea to save bees as well. This game has so many things to do and things to focus on it could have unlimitted replay value, at least until the new one comes out.
