Hello I'm Andrew, I got Harvest Moon for SNES a year ago and I loved it, so I decided to write a strategy guide using my game and several Nintendo Power issues. Then I read a Nintendo Power Magazine (May issue) and read that Harvest Moon GB finally came out. So here you are reading my Harvest Moon GB FAQ/Walkthrough! Before you go out and buy this game a word of WARNING! This is for RPG and/or SIM lovers! RPG and/or SIM haters BEWARE! If you have never played an RPG before the RPG stands for Role/Playing Game. It means it's sort of a story game instead of all that action. And SIM stands for Simulation. A SIM is a realistic game where you have to make choices, work, and deal with disasters that may destroy something you are working on (example: A farm, fence, or animal). RPGs for SNES does not mean Dungeons and Dragons. RPGs for SNES are not evil like D&D. These ones are just fun and won't turn anyone insane like D&D fans.
ENJOY MY FAQ/Walkthrough!!!!

{2} Story
You mean a different story? Yep! Ahem!
Your name is Jack you are sent by your dead grandfather to turn around his farm. You get exactly 1 year to become a Harvest Master. If you succeed, your grandfather will come back from Heaven and give you two gifts and you can continue your farming business, however if you don't succeed your grandfather will come back see what you did go back to Heaven and you will give up on the farm. Which path will you choose? So many things where to start? Plant, then buy animals and take care…Yeah! That's what I'll do!
Yes of course there are additions! That's why old Harvesters go out and by the GameBoy version, am I right, or am I right?
So you're a girl Harvester? You're sick of being Jack and having all the girls flirt with you? In Harvest Moon GB you can now be jack or a girl farmer that looks like Ellen! Jill! Yeah!
Not a dog person? Well that's not bad at all! Forget about throwing your dog in Ellen's room, now you can get a cat in Harvest Moon GB!
Hate it when you open up your game…and all your saved data is gone? Well now there's only one game to save on risking the chance of erased games. Also you don't have to save. Every time you wake up in your house it is automatically saved. So don't goof off because whatever you do is already saved.
Need a new animal to talk about? How about a Golden Chicken? That lays Golden eggs?
Mad because you can't plant vegetables in Fall and Winter? Well now you can plant Eggplant and peanuts in Fall and Broccoli and Carrots in Winter too help you become a Harvest Master faster!
Not enough tools to use in the original you think? Well, I think you know what's coming. In Harvest Moon GB there are new tools and items for you! Find them all in the Tools and Other Items sections.
Takes too long to get a horse and Sprinkler in the original? Well in Harvest Moon GB you get the Horse and Sprinkler the beginning of the first year! And if you have enough money you can get the Sprinkler the first Spring. You get the horse free the first Spring, anyway.
Did the game end too fast for ya in the original? Now in Harvest Moon GB if you keep your farm you can play for as long as you want afterwards! Why you could become a billionaire! You could make Bill Gates look like Steve Case! Whoa! I'm going too far…
No forest? Well there's no forest but even better! You get underground caverns under your farm, which includes your very own lake, your very own hot springs, your very own Mushroom garden, and a bunch of your Dwarf friends to talk to and give mushrooms, and time doesn't go by! You can't wander town? Well now to save time town is just a big path that leads to nothing but stores and the Church! No wasting time running around town anymore! And no you can't get married. You get to open the door in your tool shed the first time you start playing.
The BEST feature! Do you know someone who has a really great farm and they're about to erase it all and start over? Or are you going to? Well if they are or if you are hook up a link cable get on the phone and trade! You could have or help someone by having 4 full-grown cows, 4 grown chickens, trade pets, and seeds to someone in their first Spring! Which would really help! But you have to have cows, chickens, and seeds to trade. _______________________________________________________________________

{6} Animals
What kind of farming game would Harvest Moon GB be if there were no animals? Here I'll list all the animals in Harvest Moon GB and talk a bit about them.
Koro: This is the dog his name that is originally Koro from the Super NES hit, but you could always change his name. I kept Koro to keep Ellen happy. You can change his name. Koro is a house pet and fights Wild Dogs. Keep Dog away from Cows and Chickens.
Roko: Yes you can choose your pet! You can have a Dog and now a Cat! The cat is only a pet. But likes to wander outside at daytime. Keep her inside at nighttime so the wild dogs don't hurt her. What will you name your cat? I named her Roko. Keep Cat away from cows and Chickens.
Chicken: Pretty good animals to have. You only need to have 4 chickens. They grow up fast and you only have to buy 1. The rest you breed for free! You get 4 eggs a day without needing any equipment to get the eggs. Also if you have 4 chickens and 4 cows that's only 8 pieces of grass a day!
Chic: To breed a Chic put an egg on the breeding nest. 2 or 3 days later you'll have a Chic!
Cow: Your most profitable animal in the game, the cow. Large milks can be sold for a ton of money each day. And now cows are a time saver since you only have to take care of 4 cows! Meaning only 4 pieces of grass for cows, a day! Remember to brush, talk to, and milk your cow each day. Only milk when your cow is grown. Try to walk them on sunny days too. Don't forget to feed.
Horse: You get a horse the 10th of Spring. He's your pet until it grows up. When your horse matures he's your pet and your ride. When you buy the Saddlebags the second year he's your pet, your ride, AND your new fast shipping box!
P-Chan: Ellen has a pet bird, which she will lose the 20th of Winter. It's up to you to find it.
Moles: You sometimes find moles when you plow field spaces. If you find them get rid of them right away.
Time wasters: There are a few time wasters in this game like birds, butterflies, foxes, and squirrels. Just ignore those animals.
Golden Chicken: Yep! Lays Golden Eggs! You get it by trading chickens with another farmer. It is 1/64 chance of finding it.
Prices for animals: Dog-Free Cat-Free Chicken-1,000 GP Chic-Free Cow-5,000 GP Breeding a cow-4,000 GP Horse-Free Golden Chicken-Free, hard to get _______________________________________________________________________
{7} Plants
4 more vegetables to plant, and get this, you can plant them in fall and Winter!!!
Spring Potatoes: 150 GP a Bag Potatoes take longer to grow than turnips but they make you more money! Each potato is 80 G each. Grow them in lines: _ _ _ _ _ _
Or C's: _ _ _ |_ _ _
Lines get you 6 and save space, but C's give you 7 and give you 80 G more.
Turnips: 120 GP a Bag Turnips grow faster than potatoes but only give you 60 GP each turnip that grows. Best thing to plant in Spring.
Reminder: All veggies should use the same two designs as potatoes!
Summer Tomatoes: 200 GP a Bag Tomatoes grow really fast and can be sold for 100 GP each Tomato! It's good to have a lot of tomatoes along with corn.
Corn: 300 GP a Bag Corn doesn't grow as fast as Tomatoes but they can be sold for 120 each ear of corn! Make sure to grow even more Tomato in Summer, too!
Fall Eggplant: 150 GP a Bag Eggplant should be the only thing you grow in Fall! It is sold for 60 GP a piece, just like peanuts but they are 50 GP cheaper than peanuts. Eggplant is the best thing to grow in Fall.
Peanuts: 200 GP a Bag I don't advise you to plant Peanuts. Seeds are more expensive than Eggplant and you get the same amount if you grow eggplant. Grow Eggplant in Fall!!! At least grow ONLY ONE patch of peanuts.
Winter Broccoli: 500 GP a Bag It's the least famous vegetable out there, the seeds are WAY too expensive, and it takes WAY too long to grow! You get 120 GP for every piece. I do advise you to grow these plants since they stay all winter. Best thing to plant in winter, but leave room for lots of carrots.
Carrots: 300 GP a Bag Carrots are great! Just like corn and tomatoes, EVERYONE likes carrots! They grow almost as fast as Eggplant and they can be sold for 120 GP a carrot!
Can't grow some of the veggies? There's something wrong with your name! To find out how to fix this go to "The Name Game" in the Codes and Secrets section. _______________________________________________________________________

{9} Time, days, and Seasons
Time: Each day starts at 6:00 A.M. and ends at...well 6:00 A.M. 15 seconds equal an hour, so make sure you plan your day right. Time stops if you step inside a building. When the music stops that means it is the end of the day. You should take care of animals when you wake up, then pick mushrooms and/or vegetables the rest of the day, and water your veggies at night. Update!: You can stay up all night! But once 6 am hits you go to sleep automatically. More challenge than ya thought, huh?
Days: The week starts on Sunday and ends at Saturday (obviously). The church is open everyday but you must get there at daytime and it closes at nighttime. All stores are open daytime on weekdays and weekends. The Bar is open at nighttime (5 pm - 9 pm)
Seasons: Spring - Clear farm the first day. Buy Cows, and chickens, plant Potatoes, and get new equipment like the Sprinkler. Make sure you attend the picnic. Take care of pet and horse. Summer - Finish up your animal collection by having 4 chickens (buy 1 raise the rest) and 3 cows (raise one in Fall) if you haven't already. Take care of animals, plant tomatoes and corn, prepare for the earthquake and typhoons. After earthquake get the Golden Axe from the Goddess. Fall - Raise a cow, plant eggplant, stock up your food, take care of animals, remodel your house if you haven't in Summer, get new equipment.

{15} How to be a Harvest Master
Want to become a Harvest Master so YOU can decide what the ending is? Well here are all the tips to get you on the way!
Now at the beginning you have to make some choices.
Boy or Girl? Dog or Cat?
REMINDER: This is all for the 1st year!
Spring 1st Ok, now it's time to start your farm life. The chance you get hurry to your house and get a free 1,000 GP from your dresser. Now go buy potato seeds and a bag of grass seeds. Clear a portion of your farm. Plow near the shipping box so you can get more money on picking potatoes. Pick a smart spot to plant grass.
Spring 2nd through Spring 9th Save up for a chicken. Buy grass and potatoe seeds. Water seeds at night. When potatoes grow pick them in day.
Spring 10th You get a horse today! Wait until it matures to ride it.
Spring 11th through 23rd You should have bought a chicken and raised three by now. Save up for cows if you haven't already. Pick potatoes in day water them at night.
Spring 24th Last day to plant potatoes. Buy your last bags of potatoes and plant them now! Take care of animals in morning, pick potatoes in day, and water them at night. The 25th is the last day to plant turnips.
Spring 27th Today it is optional to have a picnic on your farm. Tell Nina yes if you want a lot of happiness points.
Summer 1st If you haven't bought the Sprinkler the 19th of Spring, buy it now! Take care of animals, buy tomato and corn seeds and plant and water them at night, remember to have a lot of grass. Earthquake MAY occur today.
Summer 2nd through 10th Earthquake!!! Now thus may happen the 1st of Summer too but usually one of these days. But don't worry no one will get hurt. Just do your things regularly because it happens when you are sleeping. Take care of animals in morning, pick tomatoes and corn at day and water them at night.
Typhoon Season There will be one Typhoon that strikes every Summer. Watch the news to find out when so you can get all your animals inside, besides the horse whom shelters himself.
Summer 11th through 25th Take care of animals in morning, pick tomatoes and corn at day, and help the Harvest Sprites and get special tools and water plants at night.
Summer 26th Last day to water Tomatoes before your last harvest of tomatoes.
Summer 27th Last day to water corn before your last harvest of corn. Concentrate on cutting grass for winter.
Summer 28th through 29th Take care of animals in the morning, pick corn and tomatoes at day, and cut grass at night.
Summer 30th Last day to pick corn and tomatoes. Take care of animals in morning, pick corn at day and if you run out of corn pick the rest of tomatoes. At night find something useful to do with the vegetables you weren't able to sell, and cut grass.
Fall 1st Take care of animals in the morning, buy eggplant seeds, and pick mushrooms at day, and water plants, and cut grass at night. Fall is the season you cut a lot of grass for Winter.
Fall 2nd through 8th Take care of animals in morning, which should be one bought chicken, three raised chickens, and three bought cows. Pick eggplant and mushrooms at day, and water plants and cut grass at night.
Fall 9th Raise a cow. This is optional but gives you a very high happiness score. You can't get milk from your expectant cow for a whole season. It's up to you. To raise a cow buy Cow Potion at the Animal Shop.
Fall 10th Stock the Pantry. Before you blow all your money from your Summer crops, buy up to 99 croissants, rice balls, and dumplings. This is not optional. If you don't do this you'll be too weak to work, because you'll run out of food. Stay up late tonight outside. The Vegetable Festival takes place today!
Fall 11th through 15th Take care of animals in the morning, pick eggplant and mushrooms at day and buy anything that's necessary, and water plants, and cut grass at night. Remember to get all the best tools. Fall is a good season to remodel your house and get the Golden Hammer.
Fall 16th through 19th Take care of animals in the morning, pick eggplant and mushrooms at day, and water eggplant, and cut grass at night. It would be wise to remodel your house one of these days.
Fall 20th Last day to plant grass. Go out and buy your last bags of grass and plant them at night. Try to pick a little bit of eggplant today, also. Also at night water eggplant.
Fall 21st through 30th Take care of animals in the morning, pick eggplant and mushrooms at day. Buy anything necessary. And water eggplant and cut grass at night. The 30th is the last day to cut grass, make sure you have enough grass in your silo for Winter.
Winter 1st Take care of animals in morning, then go out and buy carrot seeds. At night make room for carrots and water them.
Winter 2nd through 18th Take care of animals in morning, pick carrots and mushrooms at day, and water carrots at night. Make sure you get ALL the best tools this season since this is your last season to prove yourself a Harvest Master. If you already have all the Golden Tools by now, good for you and that's not sarcasm! Honestly! Look for all the Power Berries this season! Plow your whole farm and help the Harvest Sprite.
Winter 19th Last day to plant Broccoli…like anybody cares.
Winter 20th Catch the bird. Ellen will come to you asking if you can help her find her pet bird. Take care of your animals then go find that bird!
Winter 21st through 22nd Take care of your animals in the morning, pick carrots and mushrooms at day, and water carrots at night.
Winter 23rd Last day to plant carrots. Take care of animals in the morning, then go buy last carrot seeds and plant and water them at night. If you have time pick mushrooms at day or carrots if you have some.
Winter 24th Christmas Party. Take care of animals in the morning and make sure you get invited to the Christmas party today.
Winter 25th through 29th Take care of animals in the morning. Do your best work the last days of Winter! Get anything you don't have now! Pick carrots only! Lots of carrots! At night water your carrots. You should have put at least a few pieces of broccoli in the shipping crate.
Winter 30th This is it! Your grandfather's spirit is here to see you? What will he say? If you're lucky he'll say "Good job" and give you two farm gifts. If you didn't do too good then he'll leave angry and you'll give up on the farm. If you keep the farm, then you will be able to play as long as you want and there will be new farm tools to use like a cheese maker, butter churn, pick axe, First Aid Kit, Fishing Pole, saddlebags, and Magical Umbrella! Good Luck Harvesters! _______________________________________________________________________
{16} Do's And Don'ts
Do's: Get 4 Chickens Get 4 Cows Breed and raise a cow Breed and raise 3 chickens Get all Golden Tools Buy new equipment Stay alive by buying food and drinks when needed Become a Ranch Master Be nice to the Harvest Sprites
Don'ts: Sit on your butt and do nothing Lose the game Buy 4 chickens Lose concentration, nighttime doesn't last forever anymore! _______________________________________________________________________
{17} Bugs and Strange Stuff
Koro! Roko!?: I've heard someone complain that her dog messed up a lot and turned into a cat a lot. If you have problems with this you have choices. A: Trade your pet to someone else. B: Put it outside somewhere you can't see it. C: Ignore it. D: Call your local exorcist.
When do I get the Sprinkler!? And what about the Butter and Cheese maker!: I hear a lot of people complain that they don't get a chance to buy a Sprinkler. Also the same with the Butter Churn and Cheese Maker. My advice is to buy the items right away if you can. If you can't your game is messed up. Remember you must buy the watering can before you can get the sprinkler and you can only get the Cheese Maker and Butter Churn if all your cows are producing large milk.
The Harvest Sprite won't give me back my Hoe or Sickle!!!: HUNDREDS of people email me about this! Now before you email me, read this! The Sprites don't give the tools back! If ya can't find them within 3 days you have a common bug and need gamegenie or gameshark to get the tools. This is mostly a common bug with the Harvest Moon rom game. Wait for the REAL Harvest Moon GBC!
Oh...Bessie!!!!: I've heard someone say their Cow has turned into a cat... My advice is to walk it off. Get some cat litter.
Send any bugs to LoudKing@aol.com and I'll see if I can help. _______________________________________________________________________
The Name Game: Here's a very useful code! Natsume put it in themselves! This code makes it so you can pick the vegetables you want to plant in Fall and Winter! I advise EVERYONE who plays Harvest Moon GB to read this NOW!
The worst- If your name starts with a lower case letter (ex=jack or jill) you will only be able to plant peanuts and broccoli in Fall and Winter. Do not lowercase the first letter in your name.
Better- If you put a symbol instead of a letter (ex=&Man or %ill) you will be able to plant eggplant, peanuts, broccoli, and carrots in Fall and Winter, but you'll have a really stupid name.
Best- If you capitalize the first letter in your name (ex=Jack or Jill) you'll keep a cool name and you'll be able to plant the best veggies, eggplant and carrots in Fall and Winter.
Special! Free Stuff: Pick a girl with a heart in the first letter space. You'll get grass seeds, potato seeds, turnip seeds, and a watering can to start out with!
Infinite Eggs: You need the Watering Can to do this. Wait until you have an egg near the Shipping Box (for eggs) and water it. The egg will turn into a fence piece. Pick up the fence and it will be an egg. Keep on picking up the fence. Unlimited eggs!
Secrets
There are VERY good secrets in here for you!
Start up 1,000 GP: Only have enough for one starting bag of turnips? Want a couple bags of Potatoes? Well good! I have a very important secret for you.
Look in your dresser, in your cabin.
How to get the gifts! You need the exact things to get each of these 3 gifts:
Pickax If the player fills four of these conditions, they will get it at the end of the year: 4 Cows 4 Chickens Hoed over 1600 squares Shipped 4500 pieces of Produce Ultra Deluxe House
Magic Umbrella If the player fills all of these conditions, they will get it at the end of the year: 4 Cows 4 Chickens Hoed over 1600 squares Shipped 4500 pieces of Produce Ultra Deluxe House
Fishing Rod At the end of the second year you get it even if you didn't do too good.
Golden Chicken: The Golden Hen will appear randomly when you trade chickens with the Game Link Cable.
Blessed Cow: Go to church and pray ten times a day or more...EVERY SINBGLE DAY! The Harvest Goddess will EVENTUALLY one day answer your prayers and bless a cow. That cow will never be unhappy again and will produce large milk immediatly! It might never become sick again but I'm not really sure.

{19} Tips
Pro tips straight from Natsume Serious Fun and me!
? When planting vegetable gardens plant them near ponds near the Shipping Box. When you get the sprinkler put all vegetables near the Shipping Box. ? Grass grows on it's own, don't water it. ? When you get a lot of money buy grass. To buy livestock you need a lot of grass. ? When it rains you don't need to water vegetables, and keep all animals inside except the horse. ? Water your vegetables and feed your animals daily. ? You only need to feed grown chickens; chics just eat leftover scraps. ? Feeding animals is VERY important! If you forget they won't produce milk or eggs for three days. ? Using bare hands doesn't waste energy. Only tools do. ? Don't plant after the 25th of each season. ? Plant your grass away from the shipping box. ? Give presents to the harvest sprites whenever you can.
