Harvest Moon meets SimCity in John Deere: Harvest in the Heartland, a “hands-on” real-time farming game for the Nintendo DS. The core play mechanic is “Sculpt the Heartland” – Craft virgin soil into a profitable, prize winning, and picturesque farm. Prepare land and livestock to produce goods with which you can profit and purchase John Deere equipment, land, or livestock to improve your farm. Neglect the farm and you will reap what you sow.

Use the top screen to monitor your farm with the mini-map and check on the status of crops & livestock with the Query Tool. Cheer as your farm thrives or cry as negligence dashes your dreams to dust. As your farm grows, so do your customization choices.
  • Get Your Hands Dirty: Use the stylus to clear land, plant and harvest crops, and drive authentic John Deere equipment. Paint your barn and create a unique logo for your farm which identifies you at the Commodities Market. Feed, care for, and harvest products from animals in your farm through a variety of fun and intuitive stylus actions.
  • The Commodities Market and County Fair: Raise crops and livestock for sale at the daily Commodities Market; reinvest money earned from the sale of crops and animal products to upgrade your John Deere equipment and make your farm more efficient and more profitable.
