@@aspiringauthor26 I figured out how to put it in the bin yesterday..and I've only had this game since Wednesday..I'm still figuring out how stuff works in this game,but I am really enjoying it..like Animal Crossing I can spend hours playing it..then I look at the clock and go "what?It's that time already?Sheesh"..Friends of Mineral Town for the GBA was one of my favorite games for that system,and this one IMO is a faithful remake of that game 😊

[@annabananadel]

Hi! Another tip that you should do daily once you started the game is to throw an item into the lake near the hot spring. Presumably, non-junk item like flowers. A goddess will appear and take your offering and it will unlock tons of stuff. Trust me. Do this daily. ☺️

[@strawberry_sarahh]

The lake near the mine ?

[@annabananadel]

supersad Sarah yup! Near the hotspring as well ☺️

[@annabananadel]

supersad Sarah the one near jennifer’s tent as well, throw some cucumber and there’s a surprise ☺️

[@LunarEleven]

Harvest Goddess is waifu, and marriageable! So is Kappa!

[@tay_ann]

Just like throwing a flower into the river for the goddess to appear, you can throw cucumbers into the lake to get kappa to appear :)

[@welon17]

You can also fish him

[@LunarEleven]

You can marry him eventually but it's not worth the insanely extra effort lol

[@eludeirkz7961]

I didnt see it mentioned, but you can befriend the Blue harvest sprite (Blueberry) in 3 days by giving him 3 blue grass, this can make your life MUCH easier and MUCH quicker because you can get him to help you with watering your field which can get you to planting more overall crops faster, the Sprites are really broken in that you can befriend htem all very easily with the colored grasses and random flowers to then completely skip all chores.

[@eludeirkz7961]

@waterbabby Blueberry is the Dark blue Harvest sprite at the Sprite house behind the church, you can visit them everyday starting your first day until 5pm.

[@legal040]

you can also befriend orange very quickly with the honey and grapes you get from the tree outside your house :)

[@HitmanDaveTV]

You can befriend all the sprites really quickly if you give them flour. For some reason they all really love flour lol. It’s only 50g at the general store

Tip for easy money: Save all of the Van’s Favourite item that you get and sell it to Huang when you have the option to sell your stuff to him and you’ll instantly get £50000 :)

My boyfriend was testing the game on the comp he set up and he tried to rush through the intro scene 😂 he was like "wtf it's playing the credits?!"

[@magdalenabaumgartner9546]

Actually, once you have enough money saved up I like to purchase a bunch of seasonal seeds and save them in the tool box until next year. I do this because it is slow to wait until the general store opens or sometimes the store isn't open on the 1st of the season due to events or just the day of the week.

[@LunarEleven]

First of the season is a holiday so store is always closed but you can buy next-season seeds at the end of the season anyway so no need to do this :) player beware tho, don't think you're smart and plant them on the last day because (unless this remake changed this) your farm plot resets by next morning lol

[@demonheart13]

I hope they also remake harvest moon cute! I want to see an upgraded Skye and hopefully a glow up for the other bachelors who um... Had really great personalities lol

[@LunarEleven]

Hahahaha I agree. I loved HM DS. Idk why they don't have Jet's shop with the records in all the games after that 😭 I looooved the songs you could collect, and then you could listen to any of them WHILE going about farming and such! It was KK Slider in like Animal Crossing DS except you didn't just hear the music in your house. They also had classic HM tunes, it would be cool to hear them remade.

[@LunarEleven]

Also it would be perfect to do the same thing as they did with this and remake it as a combo of HM DS & HM DS Cute, so you get all the marriage options. Skye really was the only cute option in DS Cute tho!

[@diamondheart31]

Visit Zack on Sunday to get a fishing rod. Use the sickle to cut weeds and you'll get grass that sells for more.

[@HenriqueSilva-ic1vk]

Save honey to give to harvest sprites. I think they all like it as a gift. So you can train them to help you in the farm the way you like it. Otherwise, give gift from the same color as the sprite and this will help improving friendship.

[@meguchan05]

One easy trick I did to befriend the Harvest Sprites is to give them grass daily. 1st was Blueberry since he loves Blue grass. For the other sprites, I give them any grass I could forage. I also sickle the weeds from my farm to get more colored grass and gift them to harvest sprites of the same color. (ie. Plum = Purple grass, Cherry = Red grass etc.)

[@marshaevelyn88]

Or simply buy wheat flour. The love wheat flour more

[@bernadine6695]

Something I think everyone should know is how to be a "chicken farmer". What you do(have at least 2 chickens ). Take one of the eggs layed by a chicken put in in the "incubator" when the chicken is fully grown you can go sell it for 500g, this is a win win situation because you just do it again and you get the eggs for free and sell the chickens for 500g so it doesn't cost you anything to get the chicken and you make 500g

[@Emui_ai]

Early free power berries (2 to be exact) are obtained by giving 10 gifts each to the harvest goddess and the kappa. Do this for 10 days and you'll get 2 early on. Sidenote though I found a bug with the Kappa power berry reward while the dialogue was happening, my character was in collision with Gotts so basically make sure the area is clear when you do the 10th gift for Kappa. A fun technique I do for money is saving 6k-7k before the spring derby and save before watching the races then load the game and bet on the winning horses. Be careful though because I noticed that the first race is the only one that works with saving and loading the game. Then after you spent all your money on the race use your medals on necklaces on the prize exchange. Trust me you're not gonna regret it.

[@farrel_ra]

No dont necklace..it takes 20 medals, while brooch only 18! Both have same price!

[@LunarEleven]

Brooch is best derby item in the beginning! But don't worry about the 2nd and 3rd race not being fixed, just play through the derby a few times and you'll be able to guess easily because it's predictable. You can always reload and it's worth the trouble for the crazy $$$$$ Later, when you unlock dresses, sell them to Huang for millions :) Always be prepared with all the money you can save for derby every year. By year 2 you really shouldn't have to worry about money anymore though.

[@metallickandy]

Sounds complicated, but seems legit. Should have also mentioned that Harvest Moon was the predecessor of Stardew. The game looks real cute

[@hobbitsesam7887]

For when you upgrade your watering can to silver I would not separate different crops as the silver watering can cover 6 areas which costs less energy than the copper watering can. As long as an item is upgraded hold A to make it use a stronger version of what it is doing such as covering a larger area.

[@LunarEleven]

This is good advice especially for people who played the old versions who may not realize you CAN do this. Before, you couldn't walk over crops so if you planted more than 3x3 before you had upgrades or sprites you couldn't water the crops in the middle after they sprouted and you deeply regretted all of your life decisions.

[@David-lk5bt]

[@feefifeefi3822]

Story of Seasons: Friends of MIneral town is the remake of Harvest Moon: (More)Friends of Mineral Town. HM: FoMT is a remake of my favorite and first ever played HM game HM: Back to Nature. Lots of memories with the PS1 exclusive I still feel nostalgic when I hear the music during spring festival.

[@pedron30]

I always hear youtubers say how SoSFoMT is a remake of HMFoMT but for some reaosn they never mention that HMFoMT is a remake of Back to Nature, I know it shouldn't bother me but for some reason it does hahaha, but I get the feeling, the music makes me go back to so many childhood memories :')

[@LunarEleven]

I think a number of people don't know this is a combo of HMFoMT and HMMFoMT. Not that that two titles ever made sense. If you want to be a dude, you have to get the older one and if you play as a girl you get the update. Same with DS/DS Cute! Thank glob they finally combined the options AND allowed same sex marriage (instead of "BeSt FRieNDs" which was like hedging around a same sex romance without being too progressive 😂)

Even if I don't want to marry a character the idea of them leaving town for 2 years because I failed to tell them about a job is irrationally traumatizing lol this is why I NEED player's guides. It's an OCD thing 😄

[@user-ow1jb7wg8u]

Stardew Valley was the first farming/life sim series I gave a serious playthrough and enjoyed, but then I played some of the SOS and HM games and they really highlighted some of the limits of SDV, especially in the NPC interactions. SOS/HM had a lot of interesting mechanics like Reverse Confessions, Rival Marriages, simply waving at people as you pass by them counts as talking to them, wrapped gifts, post marriage/child events, Spouses that WORK on the farm, the villagers celebrate YOUR birthday/give YOU presents, and having to be on good terms with an NPCs friends before you can reach milestones with them. This stuff breathed life into interacting with the NPCs (which is a big part of the game), and it makes the SDV NPCs feel stiff and robotic at times (esp post marriage)

[@BloodyEveryday]

You can win a lot of money by scum saving before horse festivals, invest all the medals you win on dresses and brooches then sell them to Huang. A dress goes for around 12k alone

[@selenabonilla2281]

Definitely some great tips, i'm new to these games i never played any of the series. One question have you any good tips into managing the sprites? I'm currently expanding my crop field and when i assign all 7 sprites to certain chores (4 on water dutie) (2 on harvest) and (1 on livestock) after the 7 days is up i'm stuck with all farming duties alone until i ask them to help again. Is there a certain strategy to avoid this happening. Any tips is much appreciated.

[@banarriola121]

make it 3 for water duty, 2 on harvest, and 2 on livestock. then assign 1 from each area about 2-3 days ahead or behind the rest so when 7 days is up then you wont be alone doing everything. this also saves up time when theres a hurricane as you cant go out the house if theres one outside but the sprites can still work during a hurricane.

[@Dubguyful]

@@banarriola121 Should i put 3 on water duty for 7 days, and 4 sprites harvesting and on livestock duties for 2x3 days so after 6 days working i can assign them to new duties on the day before the sprites on watering duty is over? Thanks

[@tiavonteriley5383]

He’s saying to assign those 3 sprites one day after the other. So assign the green sprite on spring day 10 to water for 7 days. Then the next day on spring day 11, assign the yellow sprite for 7 days straight. Then the next day, spring day 12 assign the purple sprite to water for 7 days. That way there is at least 2 out of the three working at all times on your field. Jus have to keep up wen you need to go back and assign the sprite again wen his 7days are up. Hope this helps for clarification.

I'm interested of diving in but i have concerns 1. Is SoS FoMT easy to get into much like say... Stardew Valley and Doraemon Story of Seasons or is it like Natsume's Harvest Moon games (One fuck up and Game Over)? 2. Can you enjoy the game without getting hitched or is it mandatory for story progression? 3. Will the Marriage system be a issue for newcomers of SoS (namely those coming into this after playing Doraemon Story of Seasons)? 4. In your opinion, Which is more feasible to play this, Physical or Digital?

[@estrioleyin5667]

1. Need clarification to fully answer this... which natsume harvest moon? Because older harvest moon (till tale of two town) is actually bokujo monogatari in japan and now the english translation called story of season. The newer harvest moon (light of hope, etc) is a clone of the series made by natsume... after marvelous (original developer) and natsume (translator and seller in outside japan) separate... To partially answer your question... If you come from Doraemon SoS... then you will like this game. Because Doraemon SoS is actually trying to "back to basic" to old bokujo monogatari gameplay... and this game is actually the remake of those said old games. Thus the game style might be to your liking... 2. As far as i know you have freedom in this game... all other is optional... 3. Marriage also optional... and if you want to get married this remake also give freedom for same sex marriage (original gba game did not). 4. I prefer physical copy for all my switch game.

the sv dev literally has said he took inspiration from harvest moon idk why ppl dont kno

[@shivaruka9126]

How did I not know so many of these things. What the hell. I played the GBA version too. Can you do a follow up on how to Level up the farm?

[@farrel_ra]

To lvl up the farm, u need to keep upgrading things at Gotz the woodsman. Later on he can upgrade ur field

[@zurajanaisephirothda3886]

Dummy question but what button on the switch do I have to press to pick an item out of the inventory and put it over my head so I can throw it into the salesbasket?

[@Montbtw]

The right thumb stick let’s you select items you have picked up from your bag

[@zurajanaisephirothda3886]

[@aiqarrn]

im pretty new to this but i know about it so i was waiting for you to release something about it to see if i would actually enjoy it so looks fun so i hope i can get it

[@klaudianowak8670]

Please can someone help me with the Mine trick? She says there that you have to reload the mine for the ladders to appear in the same spot - so I left the mine after like 3 floors down as I was out of stamina, had a bath and reentered the mine, but ladder wasn't in the same spot. Please help? x

[@ahmedfalahy9337]

When you leave the mine, the ladder locations are reshuffled. She meant to save the game when you start a floor, then seek out the ladder. When you find the ladder, remember it's location then load the game. Recall the ladder location and dig there

[@phantom_flame]

Can someone explain to me how I can get the recipes from Ruby? :/ she only gave me the one for wild grape water but now she doesn't give any other ones for some reason. I have 10 musical notes with her already, and I don't know what else I'm supposed to do.-.

[@DrZuluGaming]

Did you talk to her every Sunday she appears?

[@GamerCastella]

How do you unlock the fertilizer from the carpenter? I've been trying to get 5-star crops.

[@jennykleinmann2672]

Little late, but for anyone who comes here after: I got the option for a 1Lvl Upgrade in Spring of second year, so I guess one Upgrade a year

[@Masamoone]

How can you move the furniture in your house? It worked on the PC version though.

[@farrel_ra]

U cant, but u can move things like ur trophy, gifts from NPC, etc at ur shelves

[@johnoliverbanas3080]

anyone know where the lumber bin is?

[@lenare4459]

So you mentioned that the ladders don't change. But I haven't found that. The ladder is never in the same place when you come back to the mine, so if you loose a bunch of stamina trying to figure out where the first one is and then come back with more from the spring outside the mine is reset. So i'm confused as to how you can get to lvl 13 in the mines when i can barely get to lvl 2. Suggestions?

[@applesauceman92]

@@itsgowchia you have to save with each level. So enter the mine, then save then find the ladder. Then reload the file and everything should be the same. Then when you go down the ladder, save again find ladder and reload. The floors are random every time you change them so if you save and reload outside the mine then the room will randomly change. If you save before going down the ladder each time, then yeah the ladder on the next floor will be different. It's a slow process. That's why I recommend taking cooked meals and medicine. Use the save scumming for big rooms and just eat the stamina loss on little rooms to save you time in the real world.

[@hakhawt8416]

applesauceman92 I wasted sooo much time trying to get to the 100th floor since I didn’t bring a lot of food, and thought those black grass would be fine lol, and collapsed on the 53th floor. I didn’t want to continue because I would’ve to find more black grass in the mines and I would have to remember where they were located😅and I also got lazy.. Edit: actually I didn’t bring any food😭😭

[@Alerafox]

Save at the beginning of each level. So when you drop down a level. Save before touching anything. Then find the ladder, and reload then it should be in the same spot. Then next level save then find the ladder and reload. So on and so forth. The holes are always in the same spot too

[@Damndang]

Hopefully someone sees this but when I upgraded to the golden watering can it still waters one space? Any help?

[@jaezelc.5974]

Same with me. I upgraded it but still waters one space. Helppp!! 🥺🥺🥺

[@jennykleinmann2672]

You have to keep holding the Tool Button, then it charges up :)

[@MrHeat48]

Well no one ever mention how to increase animals maximum hearts in this game. Every animals you buy, they only have 5 hearts top. You HAVE TO let that animal has an off-spring so that off-spring can get 1 more max heart which will be 6. And you have to keep going with the process till you have a 10-hearts animal. It's not about how many animals you have, it's about how many hearts your animals have. And animals in this version DO NOT die, which is pretty awesome, you can have (P) products like forever. Unlike the Harvest Moon: Friends Of Mineral Town in which animals have a particular life span. Chicken is like 3-4 years, Cow and Sheep are 5-6 years max.

I have an important question. I start this game today and I liked the girl with brown hair, but her hair style no so... Will I be able to change his hair type later? Thanks

[@Hector-444]

No :/

How do you get the brush I’m not able to find it?

[@drstevens21]

I believe the man at the blacksmith/forge sells it

[@matteilers7850]

First time I’ve played the series since the original. Anyone else feel stupid for planting their crops in a 3x3x2 grid with a gap at the bottom?

[@kylobear7991]

How do you even plant crops? I have what I want selected on my switch but what do I do to actually use the hoe to till the ground

[@dingdring6317]

Ok, I've been trying to see an answer for this, but I have yet to find it so: Can you rename the protagonist? Like change the name Claire to something else?

[@hakhawt8416]

Yee

[@farrel_ra]

Yes u can

[@Umbra352]

How do I actually get a pet I’ve been looking all over trying to find something about it and have come up empty also LOL Cliff already left my name but I didn’t know that he’ll be back within two years Iol oops but yeah any advice would be great I just got this game and really enjoying it but would really like a dog or some thing but I don’t know how to get one

[@bryan_graf_illustration]

Still not sure if I’m missing something but Im in Fall and Mugi hasnt shown up to offer me the horse. Ive definitely talked to him but still wont show up. Not sure if theres some other criteria im missing

[@Dubguyful]

Try giving him gifts, eggs or fruit that will trigger it. In year one he brought a foal to me and even though i brushed it each day he still returned to take it from me. Year 2 after i gifted him s few times he gave me an adult horse. Hope this helps.

[@bryan_graf_illustration]

Dubguyful awesome thanks I’ll try it. Almost wonder if I waited too long to talk/ introduce myself to him. Don’t think I talked to him until end of Spring since I wasn’t spending money to buy a cow until after the derby.

[@tainguyen8058]

Where do you buy the brush for the horse?

[@hakhawt8416]

The forge.
