Bob
He likes home made cakes.
Chickens
Chickens take longer to give Gold Eggs. If you leave your chickens outside in the grass you will not have to feed them. Instead of paying 500G for a chicken from the Animal Farm, buy an egg from the Supermarket for 50G and place it in the incubator. Three days later, a baby chick will hatch.
Continue your game after you beat it
I have seen numerous people saying that you cannot continue your game after you beat it, but you can. If you wait until after the credits scroll, then there will be a mini movie, and then youll be able to save your game. The game will restart and you can continue where you left off. You will have your horse, dog, cows, and chickens, money, crops, everything. You dont get to marry anyone, I dont think, but everything else is saved.
Cows
Your cow will give milk faster if you leave her outside on very sunny days (when the weather channel states that there will be a 0% chance of rain). Once she gives Large Milk, leave her outside on two very good days and you should get Gold Milk. If you leave your cows outside in the grass you will not have to feed them.
Dia
There may not be anything that she likes, even blueberries.
Fishing Rod
Go to the Cafe as soon as the new day begins and you will see a carpenter. After the intermission sequence he will explain and give you the rod.
Free Animal Fodder
Take a part time job at Brownie Farms when you are feeding the animals fodder You can steal whatever is left over by putting it in your pack.
Full Moon Berry
Around the middle of Fall you can go behind the cafe/bar and get the full moon berry. After you get it, the berry will be there in another 3 days. The full moon berry will restore a lot of your energy and it is also a good gift to give to people.
Gina
She really likes Golden Eggs. Also try giving her a big fish for a heart reaction. Gina loves the Full Moon Berries found behind the bar and cafe in the fall. A heart reaction will form.
Gwen
Gwen also loves Jam.
Gwen's favourite present
Gwen's most favourite thing is golden milk. to prove this, give Gwen golden milk on any day you want and i little heart in a speech bubble will appear over her head. It's even better if you give this present to her on her birthday!
How to Get the Dog
When you begin the game, you'll notice several stray dogs wandering around. If you approach them, they'll run away. To woo a dog to your yard, keep putting food in his bowl. Anything will do: grass, eggs, berries. When you place these foods in the bowl, they immediately turn into doggie mush. After a while, you will notice the dog appearing at your farm more and more. Keep trying to pick up the dog (X). At some point, he will let you pick him up, and he will be yours!
How to Get the Horse
To get the horse, you'll have to visit Bob's farm quite a bit. Do part-time work taking care of his horses and cows and give him lots of presents. Eventually, after a solid chunk of work (a season or more), he'll bring a horse to you.
How to Train Your Dog
Once you get a dog to stay on your farm, you'll have to train him. To do so, use the following button presses in order to get him to do what you wish:
Sit: UP, LEFT, DOWN
Down: UP, DOWN, DOWN
Heel: LEFT, RIGHT, RIGHT
Drive animals: RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT
Jump: LEFT, UP, RIGHT
Sit up: DOWN, UP, UP
Katie
If you give Katie some cheese, a little heart will appear over her head indicating that her love rate increased. It is recommended that you make your own cheese - costs $500. When she meets your dog for the first time, she will get a exclamation point on top of her head. The girls will only like your dog if you give it a good name. If you give her gold eggs and milk before the Cake Contest starts. you will also get a reaction.
Kurt
He likes tomatoes.
Lyla
The little heart will appear over her head if you give her Home Made Jam or Pink Cat Flower (which start growing in summer). If you show her you dog in the beginning, she will also have a heart over her head, but this only happens once she appreciates the yellow flowers (but that does not get a big reaction).
Martha
Give her Special Cheese and she will have a heart reaction. She loves her eggs, especially gold eggs.
To get the Power Berries scattered around the land, look in these places:
1. In your pasture.
2. Visit the Harvest Goddess.
3. Visit the Harvest Sprites.
4. Go fishing.
5. Trigger the "Sacred Land" event.
