Is Harvest moon island of happiness better that Harvest moon DS?

Answer 1

It depends on what type of game you prefer On Harvest Moon DS, the exciting part is bringing the sprites back (Which takes FOREVER), to unlock mines, unlock the circus, have a sock from Nina, and to get mythic stones etc. but in Island of Happiness, your tasks are to unlock the main characters and sub-villagers, to unlock the meadow, the forest, and the jungle, and etc. Harvest Moon DS takes a lot longer to complete as it's quite difficult but worth it in the end. Whereas, Island of Happiness has a lot more to do during the part before you get married. In my own opinion Island of Happiness is better if you've never played Harvest Moongames before, its not as hard and there's more to do before you complete your mission and get married. Don't get me wrong both games are GREAT! I suggest to try both games and see which you prefer! :)

MysticTwilight: Yes. Harvest Moon Ds has a lot of glitches, as said in many HM websites. I think that Harvest Moon Island Of Happiness is more smooth and easier to play. The main idea of both is to raise a family, grow crops, and raise livestock. Only, in HMDS you must save the Harvest Goddess by unlocking all of the Harvest Sprites. In IOH you have to unlock the different areas by building bridges, then try to get more sub-villagers and main villagers to come to your growing island.

Sakura708:Yeah.Harvest Moon DS can only has on player but in Harvest moon island of happiness you can either play as a boy or girl

Superfezz:Nope, Harvest Moon DS is way better. I only played Harvest Moon Island of happiness because I used Action Replay... (P.S. HM GAMES THAT HAVE CHOISE BETWEEN GENDER MEENS THEY DON'T HAVE AS MUCH DETAIL THEN ONE GENDER GAMES)
