really funn, wonderful addition to the series, but not worth the extra $$ if your not a HM fan to begin with.
It is really fun putting a twist on things, and playing a girl on the farm, so being a HM fanatic, I naturally wanted to play every version. If youre like me, go for it - its worth it. But, the game is basically the same, only you can actually interact with your dog, and with some minor irritations like having to fertilize the feild 40g per square, having to clear out the most fertile feild, and having to buy good fodder for 200g makes it to be more of a stradegy of how you spend your time and money.
I love this game, (even though i was a tad dissapointed when I couldnt STILL go into Muffy's room (If you remember, in AWL it said GIRLS ONLY)) its still a great gameplay and has me litterally addicted. But, If you played AWL and found it "just okay" or "sure, i guess i liked it", this game is probably not worth it.
Its really great though! =]
