Players can choose to spend their days in a variety of ways in Harvest Moon: Magical Melody as they try and create the best farm in the valley. Time can be used to work the land, go shopping for seeds, or to nurture and harvest the crops. This allows our budding farmers to earn money that can be used to purchase animals like cows, chickens and sheep who can produce the best milk, eggs and wool in all of Forget-Me-Not-Valley. If after all the hard work a day off from farming in needed, players also have the freedom to explore the surrounding countryside and take this opportunity to go fishing, mine a mysterious cave, search for animals or simply pass the time by sightseeing.
