Harvest Moon

Graphics: 8 out of 10
Sound: 6 out of 10
Gameplay: 8.5 out of 10
Hardness factor: 3.5 out of 10
Overall: 8.5 out of 10
Graphics: Graphics are really nice. Characters have a lot of detail
(well, enough detail anyway) and it's really cool how the graphics
change during the seasons. Everything has a slight cartoony look to
it that was done really well.
Sound: Sound is also pretty good, though not great. It changes every
season and sets the mood, but when you have to hear it for 30 days straight.
Gameplay: A farming sim that has a lot of sequels. There are various
little side jobs you can do and it's really fun to get everything. The
only bad part about this game (that they changed in the later ones) is
that after 2 or 3 years (I don't remember exactly) the game is over and
you don't continue going. It's in a sort of isometric view, and that's pretty nice.
Hardness factor: This game isn't hard at all since it's a farm sim,
except when a tornado hits you. It takes some planning however and
it sort of sucks that the game ends so quickly.
Overall: 8.5 out of 10. One of the best games for the SNES, with good
graphics, okay sound, and really fun Gameplay. You'll definitely like this
game, or one of its sequels, so I highly recommend it.
