Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life

at our GameCube cheats & help forum



Hint: Cow Taming

A somewhat run-down, half worked farm is left to you by your father. One cow, a small shack of a house, and three fields with no crops or trees are the gloomy stats. It is up to you, with assistance from Takakura (your father's oldest friend) to not only make the farm a success, but to get to know your neighbors, find a wife to marry, and raise a family.

So, grab your tools, collect some wild vegetation, care for your Animals, plant some Crops, and learn about yourself while enjoying that country lifestyle!

Hint: Cow Taming
If you buy the milk room and put your cows in it for a few days they will go in there on there own!
Hint: Win All Horse Racing Bets
Before attending a horse race, save your game ahead of time. After the race ends, remember who won the race, then reset your GameCube and load the file you saved before the race happened. Once the game is loaded, return to the horse race and place your bets on the horse that originally won the race.
Hint: Win Celia's Heart
Give Celia a flower every day, and buy seeds from her occassionally. Her diary tells you how she likes you--if it's red, she digs you. You can view her diary on her bed.
Hint: Quick Cash
If you are having trouble making money, gather up all of your fodder. Fodder sells for 10 gold a piece and one sell of 99 pieces will get you 990 gold.
Hint: Sleep Without Passing Time
Select the Diary and choose to sleep. Save the game when prompted to, and then reset your GameCube. Load the save file you just made and you'll begin before you went to sleep but will be fully rested.
Hint: Chase Away Rain and Hurricanes
When it's stormy outside and you want to stop the rain, visit a mine and do some digging. As you emerge from the mine the rain will stop.
Hint: Find Out Who Loves You
To find out how much the girl of your dreams wants you, look at her diary. You can find Celia's on her bed in the upstairs of her house. For Molly, you can look on the table with the flowers at the Blue Bar. For Nami, follow her to her room at the Inner Inn.
Hint: Love Tips
It's pretty easy to win over any of the girls. You just have to give Muffy almost any flower, or you can give her the Pretty Ore. Also, she only likes one fish--the Big Huechep. To Nami give her artifacts and in the fall give her trick blue flowers. Give Celia flowers and she will love you anyday.

Give your girl one of these things each day and she will be falling for you in no time. If you do have trouble getting Nami to fall for you, just propose to the other girls and she will get jealous, and end up liking you more.
Hint: No Fertilizer S-Rank Tree Upgrade
Note: Must have Tartan for this trick to work.

Normally, you arean't supposed to be able to mix crops or flowers with trees to get a different result, but in this case you can.
  • Step 1: Take any crop in seed form and upgrade it to S rank with the UP-Seed. (You have to have Tartan to make hybrids.)
  • Step 2: Take the desired B-Rank tree you wish to make S-Rank and place it in the first slot of Tartan.
  • Step 3: Take the S-Rank crop and place it in the second slot.
  • Step 4: Make sure that the B-Rank tree is in the first slot, and the S-Rank crop is in the second slot in order for the trick to work.
  • Step 5: Use Tartan to get an S-Rank tree without wasting thousands on fertilizer.
Hint: Weather Control
If you are disatisfied with your weather go to your TV and keep turning it on and off on the weather channel until it gives you the weather you want.
Hint: Earn Easy Money
If you own a seed maker and any type of tree you can easily get thousands of dollars. When you shake the tree for the fruit don't sell the fruit. Instead, put it in your seed maker to get seeds from the fruit. When the seeds are made, sell them to Van for more profit.
Hint: Banana Gold
Buy a banana seed, plant the seed, and take care of it. Then, buy the seed harvester. The next summer, take your bananas and harvest the seeds. Plant a few fo the seeds, but sell the rest to Van--they sell for 750 a seed, and a tree will yield 30+ bananas.
Hint: Fishy Advice
Early in the game, the best way to make money is to fish. Buy the rod from Van and go up the river to where you see three rocks. You can make over a 1,000 in money a day. Also, if you cast and there are no bites for a very long time, don't give up and don't recast either! Wait it out and you'll be rewarded with a Yamame or Big Yamame, which go for 500 and 1,000 respectively.
Hint: Haggle Prices with Van
You can negotiate with Van up to three times on anything worth over 100g (including milk, fish, etc.). For example, go to sell him 3 Yamume fish worth 500g each -- first he offers 1500g, and when refused, he offers 1800g, then refused again and he settles for his final offer of 2100g. This third offer doesn't happen often, but the second does, so just keep refusing his first offer price until he up's it.
Hint: Best Fishing Spot
Go to "Dig" site, and notice that the waterfall has a head-like figure on the right side. Aim your fishing rod at the head and let your line roll down the stream. Here you can catch Yamume 500g, Big Yamume 1000g, Huchep 90g, Big Huchep 170g, Nayamume 60g, and Big Nayamume 130g. Not a "Snelt" or "Columbo" in sight!

It takes over "one HM hour" to catch the Yamume, "one-and-a-half HM hours" to catch the Big Yamume, and about "one-half HM hour" to get the other fish I mentioned above. Don't pull the rod back until you catch something, because at this spot it'll be worth your while. The fish line will settle at the left side of the stream "wall" if you haven't caught anything while it's moving downstream. This is OK -- leave it there for at least a half HM hour. If it goes over a half HM hour and you haven't caught anything, then you know you're getting something big so keep waiting.
Hint: Duplicate Ruby Spice
Start cooking in your kitchen and choose any recipe type. Select only Ruby Spice and then press START--you'll have one more Ruby Spice. Repeat the trick to get up to 99 Ruby Spice, but don't create any more than 99. If you do you'll end up not being able to use all your bottles, and won't be able to continue living your Wonderful Life.
Hint: Marry Celia in One Season
Give Celia the Goddess Drop--located near Vesta's--every day, and then on the first day of summer her diary should have four hearts. Then, when you wake up on the first day of summer, Nik Nak and Flak wil give you a blue feather (if you order bird feed, the blue feather should be with the bird feed). Give the flower to Celia answer her "Yes," you are serious.
Hint: Get Pets
  • Cat: Make friends with Romana, and during the fall season of the second chapter, wake up after your wife. Romana will give you a cat.
  • Duck: Purchase a pond from Takakura and, during the summer season of chapter two, wake up after your wife.
  • Goat: Van sells ducks when his shop is open during the spring season.
Hint: Free Seed Maker
Befriend the scientist by giving him gifts, and he will give you the seed maker for free at the beginning of the second year.
Hint: Fast Horse
In Spring of the Beggining, order a female chicken from Takakura. During the Summer of the Beggining, Takakura will give you the horse. He will say, "I ordered it, not you," If you don't buy the female chicken in the Spring, you will not get the horse until Chapter 2.
Hint: Golden Commodities
If you are having trouble getting golden wool, try the following: occasionally love your sheep; brush it every other day or so; wash it when it is dirty; before you shear it, wash it and love it.

If you are having trouble getting golden eggs, try the following: love your chickens everyday; get at least one male; take your chickens outside on sunny days; don't put them in the field because it will only result in them getting lost; keep your chickens fed.
Hint: Golden Wool

To acquire some Golden Wool (which sells for 500g apiece), brush each side of any given sheep three times. The wool will then fall to the ground. (unverified)

More Cash Easier
Allright you want to have more cash without so much work its simple....get trees all of them...start probably in the first year and go from there...plant the trees in any soil....doesnt matter...just keep a space between them...plant them in a checker board pattern though....if you still want to plant crops then dont plant the trees in the very fertile soil or the fertile soil plant them in the soil next to yer house...then you can still have yer crops...though crop seeds dont get much unlike tree seeds which you can get alot of money from....you might want to save some of the seeds to plant later I guess

How to get a lizard!
Around fall or winter time a big white monster type thing will be walking around the area by the sprite's home. Be nice to it (talk to it) and give it fish (it loves to eat) and then some time before year two he'll give you a lizard!
P.S do this before year 2.

Fishing Advice 2
When you obtain the fishing rod from Van, try fishing from the bridge in between the town. If your lucky enough, you can catch a small fish called a Sharshark that goes for 600 units of money.

Get Pets:Chihuahua
During all chapters at the dig site you have to find the tablets. There are six tablets, one for every chapter of the game. You have to find all six tablets and once you find all of the tablets and befriend Carter or Flora, you will get the chihuahua.

Calling horse
Press [R]x2 to calls you horse from anywhere outside to you.

Get ducks
Go to Takakura and you buy a pond for 2,500 G some time during the Summer in Chapter 2. Then, wake up later than your wife in the morning.

The ducks will go into your pond sometime in the Summer of any year, but you must have room in your Chicken Coop.

In Year 2, buy the pond for 2,500 G. Then, wait until you get married. Make sure you have room in your chicken coop. Use your sickle and make a two square long path going in a plus side pattern from the fence to the pond. Make sure it remains cut. Eventually your wife will wake you up, telling you that there are ducks in the pond.

Get a cat
Befriend Romona. Somewhere in Chapter 2 and up, Romona will come to your house and let you name and have it.

You will get a cat sometime in the second year in the second chapter (Happy Birthday). You will get the cat from Romana, the lady that lives in the mansion. Note: You do not need to be friends with her.

Get a goat
Starting in the second year, you can buy a goat from Van. It will give milk once per day for a full season, then it will stop. You can sell the goat milk for 115 G or make goat cheese and butter. The goat cheese and butter sell for 155 G and 150 G. However, you cannot sell the goat.

Get a horse
During the first summer of The Beginning, somewhere around Summer 8 Takura will give you the horse. He says that you ordered it, then finds out that you did not order it.

Get a lizard
To get a lizard you must befriend Mukumuku. To do this, give the giant white monster a fish and watch as he jumps up and down.

Get Different Pets!!
Other then regular animals, you can get some other pets and animals in AWL. If your a big animal lover, try getting them all!

Cat: Visit Ramona every day and give her flowers and milk every day. Eventully she'll become your friend. During the summer in Chapter 2, wake up before your wife and Ramona will give you a cat.(I think all the wives wake up at different times, my wife[Celia] wakes up at 6:00 AM a lot) The cat will be black, and you can name it, but it doesn't do really anything.

Chiwawa(sp?): I'm not too sure about this one, but the Chiwawa is at the dig site in the tent. I THINK you have to befriend the guy who digs there, and then maybe he'll give you the Chiwawa. However, I've heard that you have to feed it, so make sure you really want it.

Lizard: Befriend Makumaku(the white monster who comes out in the Winter) and give him fish. He'll eventully give you the lizard with the bandage on it's leg. It doesn't do anything, however.

Racoon: Befriend Vesta or Marlin(Vesta likes milk and Marlin likes crops that you grew) and eventully they'll give you a racoon. It doesn't do anything, but it's soooo cute^_^

Ducks: Simply buy the Pond in the Food Storage Room. They make eggs, just like the chickens.

Goat: Buy it from Van. With the goat you can make cheese and butter.


Weather Control
If you are disatisfied with your weather go to your TV and keep turning it on and off on the weather channel until it gives you the weather you want.

Win All Horse Racing Bets
Before attending a horse race, save your game ahead of time. After the race ends, remember who won the race, then reset your GameCube and load the file you saved before the race happened. Once the game is loaded, return to the horse race and place your bets on the horse that originally won the race.

Banana Gold
Buy a banana seed, plant the seed, and take care of it. Then, buy the seed harvester. The next summer, take your bananas and harvest the seeds. Plant a few fo the seeds, but sell the rest to Van--they sell for 750 a seed, and a tree will yield 30+ bananas.

Chase Away Rain and Hurricanes
When it's stormy outside and you want to stop the rain, visit a mine and do some digging. As you emerge from the mine the rain will stop.

Earn Easy Money
If you own a seed maker and any type of tree you can easily get thousands of dollars. When you shake the tree for the fruit don't sell the fruit. Instead, put it in your seed maker to get seeds from the fruit. When the seeds are made, sell them to Van for more profit.

Find Out Who Loves You
To find out how much the girl of your dreams wants you, look at her diary. You can find Celia's on her bed in the upstairs of her house. For Molly, you can look on the table with the flowers at the Blue Bar. For Nami, follow her to her room at the Inner Inn.

Fishy Advice
Early in the game, the best way to make money is to fish. Buy the rod from Van and go up the river to where you see three rocks. You can make over a 1,000 in money a day. Also, if you cast and there are no bites for a very long time, don't give up and don't recast either! Wait it out and you'll be rewarded with a Yamame or Big Yamame, which go for 500 and 1,000 respectively.

Quick Cash
If you are having trouble making money, gather up all of your fodder. Fodder sells for 10 gold a piece and one sell of 99 pieces will get you 990 gold.

Sleep Without Passing Time
Select the Diary and choose to sleep. Save the game when prompted to, and then reset your GameCube. Load the save file you just made and you'll begin before you went to sleep but will be fully rested.

Love Tips
It's pretty easy to win over any of the girls. You just have to give Muffy almost any flower, or you can give her the Pretty Ore. Also, she only likes one fish--the Big Huechep. To Nami give her artifacts and in the fall give her trick blue flowers. Give Celia flowers and she will love you anyday.

Give your girl one of these things each day and she will be falling for you in no time. If you do have trouble getting Nami to fall for you, just propose to the other girls and she will get jealous, and end up liking you more.

Easy items
To get free items like a Strange Sickle and a Tumtum, go to the hippy/song writer's house at night. This will only work slightly after midnight.

More tools
If you become good friends with Vesta (give her flowers everyday) then look for her in her storage room, she will eventually give you the weird hoe. Also, if you become good friends with Dr. Hardy (he likes coins from the dig site) and enter his house when he moves to town, he will give you the weird sickle. Give flowers to Gustafa everyday and when you can enter his house, if he is friends with you he will give you a strange sickle. Also become friends with Sabrina, Kate, and/or Grant (your friendship with one will eventually rub off onto the rest of the family). Grant will give you an alarm clock to help get you up in the morning. Kate and Sabrina both like flowers. Finally if you become friends with Romona, Subastian and Lumina, (Romona and Lumina like flowers and Subastian likes old coins, gold ones only and eggs), Romona will eventually give you a wooden watering can. You can use the tools or just collect them. They are a symbol of friendship with these people.

Free Seed Maker
Befriend Daryl (the scientist) and wait until you see his trap #2 for catching the monster. When it fails, go to his house. When you enter his house you will see an intermission sequence with him talking about the Seed Maker. He will give you one when he is done talking.

Level S seeds
This trick requires almost a year of patience, depending on where you are in the game. Wait until you have the Talking, Hybridizing plant Tartan. Once you have him, find the seed you want to be "super". It can be a hybrid or normal crop). Then, gather the vast quantities of the following flowers in the corresponding seasons: Happy Lamp (Summer), Gemsoil (Fall), and Upseed (Winter). Once you have all of them, go to Tartan with the "super" seed to be. One at a time, combine the seed with one of each flower. Once each flower is combined, stop hybridizing and press Start. Highlight the seed and press the "Help" button. The seed is now level S, can be grown in any soil, in any season, and thus a "super" seed.

Heartbreaker
If you are having a difficult time getting Nami to fall for you, consider taking the roundabout approach. Break Muffy and Celia's hearts by proposals to them. Show Muffy and Celia the Blue Feather. When they ask "Are you serious?" say "No." By the end of the first chapter, Nami's affection should be high enough that you can propose to her.

Strange Hoe
To get the Strange Hoe you must befriend Tim the hotel manger. He likes fruits.

Monster sighting
Go into your house before 9:00 p.m. Wait until 9:45 p.m. and walk out of your house. This should start an intermission sequence where you will see Daryl walking into the woods toward the spring to find the monster that has been seen lately. The monsters name will be Mukumuku. Note: You may have to be friends with Daryl for this to work.

Fishing
Do not go fishing with a empty stomach.

Planting
Use the following trick if you have a hard time planting with the watering can. Use the watering can with the faucet by the chicken coop. It will help you by spraying water instead of drops.

Piano practice
If you walk into Romana's Vila around 10:30 a.m., you should start an intermission sequence that shows Lumina playing the piano and Romana telling her to "Play more freely" She will then stop and she will talk to you. You will then be given a choice of what to say to her. If you tell her "That's OK, have fun", she will tell you a story and you will be friends or become better friends with her.

Milk drinking contest
When you go into the Inner Inn and Rock and Tim are in the main room, go over to Rock. He will ask to have a milk drinking contest. Try going there on Spring the 9th at about 2:30.

Box from the beach
When you are married to Celia, sometime in the third chapter (about Spring the 3rd), at about 5 or 6 in the morning, go into your son's room. He will be lying on the floor by a box. Ask what the box is and he will say he found it on the beach. Say that it is cool and he will get all excited that you also liked it. He will then tell you that there is a secret code on the side. If you answer "It says Fragile," he will say "Wow! Cool! You know how to tell what codes are!? Your like a spy!". This may make him look up to you, or at least like you.

Quick rest
Select the "Diary" option and choose to go to sleep. Save the game when asked, then reset the Gamecube. Load that saved game file to resume just before the time you went to sleep, but fully rested.

Prevent offending girl
If you offend a girl whom you want to marry, it will take longer to get a heart. To prevent this, when you do one of the intermission sequences with the girl, she will talk to you and you will have to respond. There are two responses that you can choose from. One of them is good, and the other is a bad choice. If you choose a bad response, wait until the sequence is over and reset the Gamecube. You should wake up to the same day as the intermission sequence, and can do the same thing that you did before to get the sequence. This time, make a good choice for the response.
