		Version 1.0 - December 20 2000



	First Version. There is alot. I need to find out some more stuff

then I'll make the second update. Then there won't be many more... I always

try to do to many things at one time. There also is a lot of grammer errors.

Just work with it, Kay? Some of the plants may not be correct or even suppose

to be there.

	1: The History

	The history of the game starts a long time ago from this little

machine called a Super Nintendo. Then It when to an even smaller machine

called a Gameboy to make a black and white Harvest Moon. Then later on it

evolved to color. Then It took a giant leap to the Nintendo 64, Not only in

color but also 3-D... ooooOOOOOoooo. Happy happy, good. Then it went back

down a step to what we are having this conversation about... Harvest Moon 2

for Gameboy Color! (Crowd cheers).



	In this scenario, You start off with 500 G (What on earth is G?

Gold? Grams? Goose? Err... Geese?) You take over a farm to try to save it

from being knocked down and then a theme park will be built on the land.

It's probably a Cedar Point. You will have three years (Not in real life on

the game silly :-) If you dogood the mayor of the town will let you keep on

going with your farm (But by then you'll probably be sick of the game and

want to never play it ever again... Unless you are crazy... (Only kidding)

	2: The Basics.

		The basics of the game are pretty basic. (Rolls eyes) You

grow crops and raise animals in order to get money to buy more tools,

upgrades, food, and some other helpful stuff. Here are the basics:



	1: Water your plants every day except when it's raining.

	2: Feed your animals every day.

	3: Pull weeds so they don't take you over.

	4: Put the grown crops in the shipping box.

	5: Milk your cows, take your chickens' eggs, and shed your sheep.

	6: Put the stuff from # 5 in the shipping box before 5 o' clock.



	Here are some things that you don't have to do every day but will

		help.



	1: Put wild fruits and other in the Shipping box.

	2: Cut down the tree stumps in the forest behind your house.

	3: FISH!

	4. The Town.

	There is not going to be a town on this version, I need to do more

reserch first. (and I'm Lazy) Sorry for this.



*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*



	5: Plants.

	Okie-Dokie, I'll organize these Plants by their type and then it

will go by cost. If you don't understand that, just look at it.



	Crops:

		Turnip Seeds- 120G

		Eggplant Seeds- 150G

		Peanut Seeds- 200G

		Tomato Seeds- 200G

		Asparagus Seeds- 300G

		Carrot Seeds- 300G

		Corn Seeds- 300G

		Broccoli Seeds- 500G

		Melon Seeds- 500G

		Napa Seeds- 500G

		3: G. Lily

			(Numbers 3 through 6 I don't know where they go!)



*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*



	6: All Animals.

	This includes Cows, Chickens, Sheep, Your Pet, Your Horse, Fish,

Bugs, and moles! (moles really aren't important, But I love them.)

	Cows: A good steady source of income, but are pretty hard and

difficult toraise. The cows can come in four different sizes, small, medium,

large, and extra large (pregnant). The same with the milk, except the

pregnant one. Instead, that's Golden.



	Chicken: Chickens are pains in the butt! When you try to feed them,

they get in your way and make you wait! They don't give you a big profit

(50G an egg)! That is unless you trade a chicken with another Harvest Moon 2

Game. Doing that will give your chickens to lay Golden Eggs! (We must now

find a Guy, and trade him a cow for magic beans...) And if you forget to

feed them one day, they won't give you eggs for two days! What little pains

in the...



	Sheep: In order to be able to get sheep, you must build a Sheep Pen

for them. (See upgrades) Then you have to buy a sheep, and you have to get

sheep clippers... To get sheep is very expensive, and kind of not worth it all.

The only good part about them is that their wool will give you lots of money,

but you have to wait a week for it to grow.



	Your Pet: Dog or cat. In my opinion, cats are better than dogs

because, The cats will bring you seeds every month, while dogs will scare

away wild dogs and foxes. Yes that may be useful, but it can easily be

avoided by keeping your chickens inside the coop.



	Your Horse: You get him in the summer of the first season, After he

matures,you buy a saddle for him, and then he will be able to use him has a

shipping box. Later on in the game you can race him.



	Fish: There are 18 different types of fish. You can sell the fish for

a profit. You get 40 G for a small fish, 60 for a medium, 80 for a big fish.

They may be worth more. I'm not totaly positive about all of it. If you don't

want to plant crops, you can go fishing all day long and make any where from

2,000 G, to over 5,000! That is a good way to get money for something really

quick! You can trade the fish to a friend that has The Legend of the River

King 2.

gave them all numbers for no real reason... I guess just so it's organized...

Some of them can get upgrades. I'll tell you with ones that can. Oh, and to

get it upgraded in the first place, just use it for a long time, over, and

over, and over, and over,and over, and over, and over, and over, and over,

	11: Secrets:

		1). Secret path - In the woods, to the right of the spa there

is a secret path that will get you instantly back to your farm. It does save

a little time. But you can't go back through it the other way.

		2). Power Berries - The easy way to get all the power berries

is to stand in one place and with your hoe, you just keep on tilling the

ground in the same place over and over... and about every 80th are tilled you

get the power berry!

		3). Weather cheat - When you turn on your T.V. and look at

the fuzzy screen. Instead of panicing, you have two choices to stop it from

happening. One, you can shut your gameboy on and off over and over until it

says it will be a nice sunny day. Or, you can do it the faster, easier, more

reliable way. Go to the carpenter and make him give you an estimate for

anything. Then the next day, the carpenter will be there on a nice sunny day!

The only problem is that you can't do this anymore if you have all of the

upgrades already. Oh, well.

	    Other stuff:

		This guide should only be at www.gamefaqs.com. don't use this

as if it was yours, and take credit for it. Or I'll sit on you, tickle you

till you pee your pants, and I'll sing a song you don't like... Plagiarizing

is illegal anyway.  If you see this anywhere else please tell me. Or you can

take deadly viruses and send them to the person and say it's a game.



		If you have anything to tell me that I don't have already

send it to me. I'll give you the credit for it. Just remember to tell me your

name or a nickname or somthing. If you don't put anything for your name...

I'll take the credit. I gotta go.
