Our beloved PlayStation Portable is desperate to tell you about the latest mind-blowing title available for it. We are talking about none other than the beautiful amalgamation of two superb games, Harvest Moon: Back to Nature and Harvest Moon for Girls, into one all inclusive game entitled Harvest Moon: Boy & Girl.
The title completely puts you in charge of planning and maintaining each and every aspect of your farm, including everything from the field to the livestock. The title involves four seasons and each is composed of 30 days. It is the predecessor to most modern day Harvest Moon titles, like Harvest Moon for the Wii. Harvest Moon: Boy & Girl is further punctuated with several local events in which you can participate. Before actually planting crops, as an authorized field manager and an owner, you must first properly weed and plow the land. Then the planted crops need to be systematically watered and harvested. On the other hand, your beloved animals also deserve care and protection, so they also need to be fed, but don’t overboard as you still need food for yourself. The title allows you to work yourself into the ground, before finally collapsing from exhaustion.
Once you’re through with your duties and tasks you can then spend the rest of your time as you please. The title begins with a prompt where you must decide between a boy and a girl. But make no mistakes, despite the name of the title, the decision is completely superficial. No matter who you select for the farm, the village and people you encounter will treat you identically, only the backstories are different. The boy in the game is the grandson of a local farmer and he comes to claim that the land belongs to him. But things aren’t as simple as it appears, as the Mayor of a nearby Town clarifies that the dilapidated farm is yours as long as you can turn it fertile again and gain the acceptance of your fellow villagers within 3 years. On the other hand, the girl was a passenger aboard a ship wrecked in a storm and she coincidently washes up on Mineral Town’s beach. Then after being found by an inhabitant the mayor heard her tale and showed his benevolence by giving her a farm so that she might get love and happiness again.
