Item Description

Forget-Me-Not Valley has a problem, and it is going to take a lot of turnips to fix it. In Harvest Moon DS Cute, a quarrel between the Harvest King and the Harvest Goddess ends with the Goddess turned to stone and banished to another world along with her 101 Harvest Sprites. A regretful King sends the Witch Princess with a letter explaining the way to bring them home: become the hardworking farmer everyone hoped you would be.

Cute is the female-led companion to Harvest Moon DS, first released in Japan in 2005 and brought to North America by Natsume in March 2008. You play as either Claire from More Friends of Mineral Town or Pony from Another Wonderful Life, and the story is reframed around your own family's hopes for you as a farmer. The day-to-day rhythm is classic Harvest Moon. Crops must go in the ground in their proper season, unowned fields across the valley are there for planting if you can keep up with the watering, livestock pens come from Gotz, cows and sheep need a proper animal shed, and once you have shipped a thousand items your friend Takakura gives you a horse.

The Sprites are the long game. Each rescue feels like a reward for an honest season's work, and the little helpers do more than fill a checklist: some can be hired to pitch in around the farm, while others take up fixed jobs around the valley, running the casino and the TV stations. Upgrading your house and rescuing enough of them opens the way to marriage, so romance and the rescue effort pull you forward together. One note for longtime fans: the Japanese release's Best Friend system was left out of the North American version.

Reviews were mixed at the time, and the game asks for patience, since bringing back all 101 Sprites plays out across many in-game seasons. That slow burn is exactly what its fans treasure. Cute packs a dense farm life, a huge collecting goal and a female-led story of its own into one DS cartridge, set in the same Forget-Me-Not Valley era the series built on before it continued in the West as Story of Seasons.

About the game

Harvest Moon DS Cute is the female version of Harvest Moon DS for the Nintendo DS. It was published and developed by Marvelous Interactive Inc., and first released in Japan on December 8, 2005. Harvest Moon DS Cute replaces the male protagonist from Harvest Moon DS with a female character; players may choose either Pony from Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful Life or Claire from Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town. The Japanese version introduced a system not present in the North American version known as the "Best Friend" system. This allowed the player to essentially marry any of the bachelorettes from Harvest Moon DS, as well as the bachelors.
