Should be in your local electro game store TODAYS OMG.
Loved the first one, never finished it, fucking goats, what the HELL woman use your eyes, etc etc.
The game back promises complete touch screen control, double the number of activities and tsunamis and earthquakes to deal with this time.
And there's a picture of your character about to punch an alligator. Totally worth the purchase price there alone.
edit: Holy crap, there's some kind of wi fi multiplayer this time!

The odd thing, is that I was looking at my shipping information for the order, and it looks like they are sending me another one with my copy of the game. Stupid of them, but at least its in my favor. (They are also interpeting "Free slow ass shipping" as 3 day shipping. Lucky me!)

Fruit: Peaches, perhaps coconuts soon too!
These mushrooms will be the death of me tho.

To hell with you woman. Sleep in the dirt.
I ROLLED A LOG HOT DAMN
Also, spear fishing is a LOT easier and more accurate. And cooking is a little more intricate. The cooking segments are kind of like Cooking Mama Lite.
Needs more pics/details IMO. Parched over here.
Yeah, I suck mightily at pics/details. I admit it.
It's a game where you play (technically) two teenagers stranded on a tropical island. The game centers around you finding food so you don't die and, while finding food, finding material to make things to help you find bigger food.
Case in point: I'm foraging for mushrooms. I find a twigs and tree bark. She figures out she can make a fire starter with those so we can have a fire lit in the cave at night so we lose less health at night.
Another: I find a straight branch. She figures out she can make a spear. She finds a stone and figures out she can make an even BETTER spear. Now I can spear fish and make much much better food.
Eventually you learn which mushrooms and recipies make you all powered up and can last long enough to start making mini trips to explore the island and leave your partner alone for a few days.
THEN YOU PUNCH GATORS
Are the graphics on this one any better?
Sounds like you've got the woman doing all the work.
Nice.
Am I missing anything if I play this without playing the first DS game?
I hope not. What kid is stupid enough to get stranded twice?
This isn't The Hatchet!
Is it cheap yet?
Break it to him gently...
I wonder how the graphics are this time around. I was pretty impressed by the original game's graphics a year after it was released, so I'm intrigued to whether they improved on them or not.
If they are better it's barely noticable. I, personally, think they're better.
There's some screenshots here: http://media.ds.ign.com/media/849/849917/imgs_1.html
I likes to empowers the wimmins I does.
It's Survival Kids 4, yeah. They just changed the name for the US, I think.
No, you can skip the first one. They have nothing to do with each other story wise.
The reviews are awful but honestly they're a little off the mark. The game has a VERY steep learning curve. Well, not really learning curve; you need to do some very specific things right off the bat or you won't live past the second day.
If you liked Harvest Moon you'll like this.
It's not as much of a sequal as it is an improvement of the first. Cooking is expanded, the relationship thing has more triggers with what you do, there's lots more hints as to what's going on... It's sort of up in the air. If you didn't get the first, definitely get the second. If you did and really didn't like the first, there's not quite enough new stuff here to warrant a purchase.
I have not punched a gator yet but really, how can it NOT be fun?
Brian did not get stranded twice.
One tip to people considering this.. if you like the concept of the game, please do not let the reviews discourage you too heavily. This is not the sort of game that gets good reviews. You're doing tasks that many would consider "repetitive gameplay design" in order to survive, and while it obviously isn't for everyone, I think it is pulled off very well. In fact, I can't think of another game like this one in atmosphere and feel. It's not an amazing game, but it's a well-executed concept, so don't dismiss it just because of the reviews. Do your own research to determine if you would like it or not.
Ugh.
It seems clear that he hasn't played or enjoyed the previous LiB, and that makes his review rather negligible. The only thing that concerns me is what he describes as "a weak battle system", although he doesn't elaborate.
Whatever. I'm gonna break out my original LiB and kill some goats.
Not seeing the stones that let you hop over to the trees you get your first stick to make a spear from basically set me on a downward spiral for a while. Trying to forage enough clams and coconuts to cook regularly was quickly killing us.
My bane now seems to be getting enough firewood.
