Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life - Strategy Guide (Page 02)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life - Strategy Guide (Page 02).

Sheep aren't that lucrative and don't require much care. They eat once a day.
Leave them outside and they will feed themselves. They produce wool. They
produce wool once every season (10 days). To shear them you will need the
clippers. Buy them from the Ledger or use the ones from Wally. Sheep cost
1500G. If your sheep get dirty take them outside and push them over to that
little water box. Then use your brush to wash them by pressing "Y".

You can't ship your wool so you will have to sell it to Van or one of the
townspeople.

Wool:

Normal Wool- 75G
Golden Wool- 600G

Don't leave your sheep out in the rain.

D. Chickens

Chickens do not live in the barn. They live in the Chicken Coop. There are male
and female chickens (roosters, hens). The females lay eggs without the rooster,
but you need a rooster for them to lay Fertilized Eggs. Male and female chickens
cost 900G. They eat bird feed which you will have to buy from the Ledger. If you
leave them outside they will eat the grass. You can hatch your own chickens by
putting a fertilized egg in the incubator. Don't show your chickens or anything
to your chickens. They don't like that.

Eggs:

Egg- 40G
Fertilized Egg- 50G
Golden Egg- 300G

Take the chickens inside when it rains otherwise they might get sick.

E. Ducks

You will only get ducks if you built a pond in the first chapter or beginning
of the second. Wake up after your wife and you will get a scene where ducks
come to your pond and your wife asks to keep them. You cannot buy ducks so do
not sell either of these ducks if you want more. The ducks won't lay eggs, but
if you have ducks sometimes a duck will hatch from a fertilized egg. Just think
of it like ducks lay eggs, but make the chickens sit on them. Ducks also need
to eat bird feed and will eat grass if you leave them outside. They will also
sometimes sit in the pond. Ducks can be sold for 500G. Don't show your ducks or
anything to your ducks. They don't like that.

Take the ducks inside when it rains otherwise they might get sick.

F. Goat

Now the goat is only available from Van beginning in the second chapter and
only available in Spring. The goat costs 4000G. It comes with a goat milker,
but again you do not need to use it. Just use your hands if you want. You can
only get a female goat and the goat gives milk only for 40 days like the cows,
but unlike the cows the goat cannot get pregnant to give more milk. You cannot
sell the goat either. The only way to get rid of it is to let it die. Leave it
out in the rain, don't feed it, or don't give it medicine. You might as well
keep it though, you'll eventually have all the money you need. The goat eats
once a day and can be milked only once a day. Leave it outside and it will feed
itself. You can only buy one goat. If your goat gets dirty take it outside and
push it over to that little water box. Then use your brush to wash it by
pressing "Y".

Goat Milk:

Goat Milk- 115G
Good Goat Milk- 300G

If you have the Food Processing Room you can make goat cheese and butter.

Goat Cheese- 155G
Goat Butter- 150G

Don't leave your goat out in the rain.

G. Horse

The horse doesn't really require much care since I don't think it can die. It
eats once a day and it will feed itself if outside. You can also feed it apples
by holding an apple and showing it to it. You can ride your horse anywhere in
town and call it by pressin "R" twice. In the Summer or Fall of the first year
Takakura will return from Town and give you the horse. If your horse gets dirty
take it outside and push it over to that little water box. Then use your brush
to wash it by pressing "Y".

H. Dog

You get a dog at the very beginning. Choose either a pointy-eared or a
floppy-eared dog. They don't require much care either. When you're on your farm
call it by pressing "R" once. It has a food dish where you can feed it. If you
feed it once a day it will prevent Murrey from stealing your food in the Food
Storage, but only for that day.

I. Cat

If you are friends with Romana, in the Fall of Chapter 2, wake up at around
9 AM and Romana will visit your farm and present you with a black cat. It
really doesn't do anything. You can feed it in the dog's dish, but it pretty
much just hangs around.

J. Chihuahua

To get this dog you need to be friends with Carter and Flora. You also need to
have dug up all 6 strange tablets in the dig site. One a chapter. This dog is
the same as the cat. You can feed it, but it does nothing. You can see this dog
at Carter's Dig every now and then. It just sits around. It's tiny.

++++++++++++
+ 6. Crops +
++++++++++++

To grow crops you will need a hoe. Use the hoe to till a square on one of the
fields. Then you can plant your crop. The big field in the back is the most
fertile field. All crops can grow there, but if you use the other fields you
might have to use fertilizer for a particular crop. You will have to water your
crop. You should water it twice a day. Trees grow in any field without
fertilizer or water. Watering trees makes them grow faster and fertilizer
increases their fruit's rank.

I will only place the first generation crops here. Not hybrids. Buy them at
Vesta's Farm.
This is how they will be laid out:

Crop- Seed Price
Growing Season
Class
B Rank Selling Price
A Rank Selling Price
S Rank Selling Price

Tomato- 30G
Spring-Fall
Vine
35G

Watermelon- 60G
Spring-Summer
Vine
75G

Turnip- 20G
Summer-Winter
Root

Melon- 50G
Summer-Fall

Root

Carrot- 30G
Fall-Winter

45G

Potato- 40G
Winter-Spring
Root

Strawberry- 30G
Fall-Spring
Vine

Trees take about a year to grow and you do not need to water them. If you plant
them adjacent to another tree or crop they will not grow. Trees stop growing in
their harvest season and they grow for the rest of the year and in any soil. But
they only have one harvest season.
Plant them like this:

O-Tree X-Soil

XXXXXXX
XOXOXOX
XXXXXXX
XOXOXOX
XXXXXXX

Apple- 820G
Fall

Orange- 820G
Summer

Grapes- 900G
Fall

Peach- 1120G
Summer

Banana- 1500G
Summer

Vesta's Farm only sells B rank seeds. To raise the rank. Place fertilizer on
your crops every day. That should raise them to S rank. Then you should place
them in the seed maker and you won't need fertilizer anymore. You still have to
water them.

A good way to get S rank seeds without blowing all your money is to raise them
to S rank and then place them in the Seed Maker. You will then get two new bags
of S rank seeds. Keep this up to continue to get S rank seeds.

Carter's Dig is located up the path from Vesta's Farm. You can spend time here
excavating. When Carter is in the dig site talk to him and he will give you a
little shovel. You can dig in each of the tiled areas. You can dig after you
dig once in an area. Sometimes you'll find something this way. The site expands
every chapter giving more tiles and different items. Every chapter you can dig
up a strange tablet. This is the only item you cannot keep. Carter will take
this. There are six of these and after getting all six you can get a chihuahua.
Sell any other items to Van or give them as gifts. At 5 PM you cannot dig

+ 11. Marriage +
++++++++++++++++

Unlike previous Harvest Moon games, there are only three girls you can marry.
Nami, Celia, and Muffy. You also have to get married in this one. If you don't
the game will end after the first chapter. To win the hearts of these ladies
you must give them gifts to raise their affection levels. Once their levels are
up to 4 you can propose and they will say yes. View their heart levels in their
diaries. The harvest sprites will give you the Blue Feather in the first year.

Nami- Nami is an intelligent, quiet wanderer. She will leave town if you do not
marry her. She likes Statues and Fossils from the Dig Site and also Trick blue
flowers. They are around only in Fall. She is the hardest of the 3 to marry.
(Still easy though) Her diary is in her room at the inn. It's on the desk and
get there early in the morning or late at night to view it.

To raise Nami's affection faster give her a recipe, something from the dig site,
and a crop. She can accept these three gifts in one day.

Celia- Celia is a down to earth farm girl. Marlin won't like you if you marry
her. She likes flowers and crops. She is the easiest to marry. Her diary is in
her room at Vesta's Farm. It's on the bed, you won't be able to see it, but
press "A" near the bed to view it.

To raise Celia's affection faster give her a flower, a milk, and a crop. She can
accept these three gifts in one day.

Muffy- Muffy is a nice girl who wants a man to start a family. She likes
flowers and coins. She's in between to marry. Her diary is hidden in the
colorful lamp at the Blue Bar.

To raise Muffy's affection faster give her a flower, a milk, and a crop. She can
accept these three gifts in one day.

++++++++++++++++
+ 12. Children +
++++++++++++++++

In this game you have the ability of raising your child from a baby to an
adult. When he gets older he will choose a career. This section explains on how
to influence him to a certain career.

Your son has 6 career options.
Farmer
Rancher
Athlete
Musician
Artist
Scholar

Your son will be different depending on who you marry. They will have different
strengths and interests which lead to their careers. Strengths are what they
are good at and interests are what they like. Keep in mind, you will only alter
their interests. Their strengths stay the same.

They will be based on a scale of 1-5, 1 being the lowest, and 5 being the
highest.

Nami's Son's Strengths:
Plants- 4
Animals- 4
Athletics- 1
Music- 4
Art- 5
Study- 5

Celia's Son's Strengths:
Plants- 5
Animals- 5

Art- 2
Study- 1

Muffy's Son's Interests:
Plants- 1

Art- 1
Study- 1

Now here I will say how to influence your son to a certain career.

Farmer-
Give your son seeds, crops and flowers
Befriend Vesta
Take him to Vesta's farm as a baby

Rancher-
Show him animals
Have one of every animal
Show him milk and eggs
Keep him on the farm
Milk cows by hand
Keep animals outside

Athlete-
Befriend Wally and Hugh
Take him to Wally's house
Keep only the ball in the toy box
Let him walk home as a baby
Use your horse sparingly

Musician-
Befriend Gustafa and Lumina
Take him to Gustafa's Yurt and Romana's Villa when Lumina is playing the piano.

Artist-
Befriend Cody
Take him to Cody's Studio
Leave only the Scratch Pad in the toy box

Scholar-
Befriend Carter and Daryl
Take him to Daryl's Lab
Show him stuff from the dig site
Keep the toy car in the toy box
Use the milker to milk your cows

When talking to your son conversation choices may also influence him to a
certain career. Also, when you take him somewhere, he will run away, but that's
fine, just take him there.

At the ends of Chapters 2,3,4, and 5 you will get a scene about what your son is
currently into. Here will be which ones are which.

Chapter 2-

Artist-
Your son will be drawing and your wife will notice his talent and ask you what
you think.

Chapter 3-

Rancher-
You will be in the Tool Shed and your son will come in and tell you he learned
how to brush cows.

Artist-
Your wife mentions your son has artistic talent.

Chapter 4-

Farmer-
Your son will ask your wife if you'll teach him about farming. She then tells
him to ask you. He'll come to you and ask if you'll tech him about farming.

Chapter 5-

Farmer-
Your wife will tell your son why you came to the farm. He will then declare that
he wants to be a farmer like you.

Your son will fall in love too. Celia and Muffy's child likes Kate and Nami's
son likes Lumina.

+++++++++++++
+ 13. Shops +
+++++++++++++

There are two shops in this game. Van's shop and your's. Van comes every 3rd and
8th of the seasons and on random other days. When Van is not there you can open
up your own shop by pressing "A" next to the tree where Van sets up shop.

Van's Shop-
You can sell anything to Van. But he also sells stuff too. Here is a list of
things he sells and what chapter to get them in.

Brush-500G-Throughout the game. (Can only buy one)

Fishing Pole-500G-Throughout the Game

Turbojolt-750G-Throughout the Game

Bodigizer-750G-Throughout the Game

Bodihyper-1000G-Throughout the Game

Goat-3000G-Chapter 2-Only in Spring (Can only buy one)

Your Shop-
When you set up shop the villagers who pass by might stop at your shop.
Talk to them and they will ask for something. They ask for things they like.
You have three options. You can keep the price, lower the price, or refuse
to sell. Instead of waiting there, only set up shop when there are
townspeople around because they will not stop by if they are not passing
through.
