Type: Gamboy Advance Game

NOTE: I am a nerd and this will by far be the nerdiest post ever. With that said... Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town, is the Gameboy Advance installment of the Harvest Moon series from Natsume. Basically the jist of it is, you're this kid who inherits a farm and you work the farm, grow crops, raise animals. You raise money and status to eventually take girls on dates and hopefuly one day get married. I see this game as one of those great time wasters such as WarioWare, but with the unending elements of a role playing game. You have 10 minutes before the train arrives, 20 minutes before lunch is over, not enough time to do meaningful game play in a true RPG or action game, but this one lets you do what you need to do. 5 minutes is enough to water the crops, or plant some seeds. Graphics and sound are pretty standard and not worth any mention. Replay value is the seller.
Rating: 4.5/5 golden showers.
