The game's overall idea hasn't changed: grow crops, sell crops, buy some more crops, or buy animals, feed animals, milk/shave/sell animals, and so on and so forth. Which makes this such a great game, not real complicated, you can spend hours upon hours playing it, don't pick it up for months and start back where you left off. The graphics are nice looking, cartoonie, but yet pleasing to the eye. Music is music, if you don't like it turn on your radio and turn down the TV volume. Although the music is pretty basic, but its not annoying. Game play is excellent; whether you use Wii nunchuk controller setup or the classic controller, its smooth and easy. The "side stuff" or missions are not easily completed but yet they are nothing to pull your hair out over. Another words, the game is easy for a child but yet is not overly stupefied for an adult. There's lots to do whether you're up grading one of the many plots your able to purchase, to mining and creating items, getting to know one of the girls and marrying them; all the way to actually completing the overall goal of the game which is to find out what happened to the tree of tranquility, fix it(for a lack of better words) and make the island [on which it takes place] successful again; and so much more.
