What is included with this game? Is it only the game disc, or does the original clamshell box and the gameplay manual come with it?

My old copy of this game was sold a long time ago. Thank you. I do not have any more to say.

Selected User Reviews For Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life

This is one of the true classics
5/5

There's a reason why Harvest Moon Backyard Edition is regarded as one of the best games out there. Since it's so simple (compared to some of the other entries in the series) and is more focused on family life throughout the years (rather than expanding your farm) than practically any video game I've ever seen or played, I find it more entertaining and memorable.

The usual way I play video games is not my style
5/5

The problem is! My experience with HM has been really positive I'm with you! While I picked this up several months ago, it never saw the light of day. I am SO glad I finally got my Xbox 360 The Super Nintendo version I rented many years ago didn't appeal to me a lot. It was back then that I really just did not on earth is this going to be fun?" I had just moved to a new city a few years ago Due to all the media attention that the Harvest Moon series has received, I finally looked into buying a game. It is a wonderful life. I probably would have bought the SNES or N64 versions, but their higher prices made me settle on "A Wonderful Life. ". And yes, it is an amazing movie! That's good to know! Farm simulators are hard to understand by someone who doesn't know how they could be so addictive and fun. If I say this game is addicting, I mean it is crack-like Cocaine in the form of discs. Whenever I sit down to play, I only intend to play for 20 minutes at a time I'm 30 minutes into it, and before I know it, I'm 3 hours in. There probably are over 300 reviews that have already described everything great about this. I won't go into detail about what makes it so great. It is a great place to find out what all the fuss is about with Harvest Moon if you are interested in finding.

It is worth the money spent because it offers a lot of hours of play
5/5

In addition to enjoying Harvest Moon, I'm an avid fan of the There are a lot of games on it. It is this one I like most, even more than the special edition they had for the PlayStation 2. As you can see, I think this is something special. Lag is a major problem with the PS2 version and it is hard to see everything clearly. It looks as if everyone is walking at a snail's pace, and the camera angles are horrible. It feels like we're living in an endless loop so a day seems to take a very long time. In terms of hardware, Gamecube is the way to go. It looks like the PS2 version was drawn with crayons thanks to the crisp graphics. In terms of gameplay, if you are new to it, this can be a very addictive game. There is no doubt that this game requires alot of time to complete, so if you are like me when you buy a game, it should be something that is going to remain around for a long time. Each chapter in this game has its own objective. Your family and your child you might have after you get married are at the center of this book. In this game, you'll still plant crops and take care of animals like in the others, but this one is more detailed and explores a lot more than just making friends and planting crops. As the villages age, you can see the villagers getting Death is a part of life. There is an aging process in your family, and you must try and guide the career choice of your child. You might even assign him the responsibility of running the farm if you die or he might just enjoy being an artist. In either case, your kid is one of your main focuses in the game, so you need to stay focused on him if you want him to turn out a certain The game is an enjoyable rpg (I think it's also a lot of fun as a sim). You can play it for a long time since you can marry different women and have different types of children, and it has a high replay value so you can keep coming back to it and follow a different storyline. If you enjoy the series or like fun, addicting games that last and keep you coming back for more, then you will enjoy this game.

How can I sum it up in a few words? It's Harvest Moon, I guess? It's always been strangely appealing to play Harvest Moon games for me
5/5

It is an adventure, it is action-packed, and it is It's true that I purchased this version primarily to unlock the extra features in Friends of Mineral Town, but this game is also great. Adding this to my collection of Harvest Moon games is really nice.

Why does farming have to be so It might seem like playing a farm-based game would be pretty boring
4/5

If that individual has never heard of Harvest Moon A Wonderful Life, then it's just not on their radar. I missed seeing earlier parts of the series, and thus this was my first experience with a farming-themed game. This is an RPG game based on text. It's an easy concept and very simple, but it requires a bit of work and attention. In this post, I won't go into much detail on the game since I am sure everyone here has talked about it before, but the game is quite interesting since you grow a farm and raise a family as well as determine who your son will become in the end. Despite sometimes getting a bit boring, the outcome of the game is enticing enough to sit down and play it for a long amount of time. Anyone who owns a Wii or Gamecube, as well as fans of RPGs, will find this an essential purchase.

A Harvest Moon-like tale, a Wonderful Life-like tale
3/5

In A Wonderful Life, you can get to know the Farming and Ranching world. The chapters may seem lengthy at first glance, but if you're very patient you'll be able to get through them. The game chose my character for me, or rather it paired me with Celia when I reached the end of chapter I, since she is my favorite character. Currently, I think the son of my character is interested either in farming or ranching. There is a good chance that I will get the ending where my character's son becomes a farmer or rancher if I play the game correctly. It is only fitting that the main character of my story is named Link, and his son is named Quest 64 is a game I enjoyed to some extent if I'm being honest, and I'm a fan of Legend of Zelda. It's a good game so far, regardless of that. The tragic thing is, sorry for the spoilers, that the character dies at the end of the story. Even though old age might play some role, I don't think that will be the most satisfactory ending. Regardless, A Wonderful Life is a fine game, except for some of the above criticisms. Due to the absence of freeplay features, I would advise you to try Tree of Tranquility if you want a game in which there are no time limits and no characters die. Currently, the only thing I'd have liked to have known before I purchased the game is whether or not it's possible for the ducks to survive without food in the game, as well as if the horse can do the same without dying.

Like the previous one, I also like this one
5/5

It's been a while since Harvest Moon first came out, but I still collect it. Like the previous one, I also like this one. It's a cartoon video game in the form of a simple life. While the controls and movements are not as easy as some think, you can master them with a bit of practice. At times, you just have to think ahead in order to keep your game moving forward, otherwise, enjoy time spent in the country making new friends and building up your spread. As a non-violent game, I especially like that it keeps me on my toes and will never be the same twice because you can choose the gameplay.
