When Harvest Moon was first released, not many people thought that a game about farming would not sell well because it would seem "boring".  Surprise, surprise because harvest moon was praised everywhere by sim fans that enjoyed the toils of everyday life.(Think the Sims, ten years ago).  Anyways, Harvest Moon is a great game in which you must farm and ranch and dig your way to more money, crops, animals, and health/happiness in order to appease the ghost of the previous owner.  I don't really know exactly who to reccommend this to.  This is great for a simulation fan, but little kids might become bored, so I'd recommend this to anyone above the age of ten who has hours to spend on this great adventure.
