Harvest Moon: Animal Parade

If you love Harvest Moon and own a Wii, then here is a game for you. The developer Natsume announced today that Harvest Moon: Animal Parade has gone gold and will available for purchase on Nov. 10th at a price of $49.99. They are offering a Limited Edition Plush Duck when you pre-order.

Here’s the storyline, as usual there’s trouble in a village called Harmonica Town! Crops aren’t growing, the wind isn’t blowing, and the five elemental bells are missing. Only the power of the Harvest King can revive the land, but he’s nowhere to be found. It’s up to the player to find the five bells, awaken the Harvest King, and save the town! There are lots of other activities including fishing, mining, growing crops, and caring for wild and exotic animals such as penguins, pandas, and monkeys. Even a Circus visits the town offering new quests and animals. Sounds like this one might be different enough to be interesting.
