Gardening Mama

Review:
I bought this on Friday and played it all night. Then on Saturday, I played it all day (and night). I was supposed to start my essay, but oh well. (At least I finished it with ease.) It's a little different in gameplay than the Cooking Mama line, but not by much. The screen layout is the same. Timer, gauge, any extraneous notes. If familiar with Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends, you'll get the present system, dressing up Mama, and title layout--it's the same, really. However there are different sections of the garden. Again, not difficult, just different. As usual, there were some moves that took someone else to show me--particularly scooping out 20g of fertilizer. Music is the same monotonous, catchy tune. Overall, it's just a good as the others. I think my favorite thing overall is the Giant Pumpkin. It's HUGE. My least favorite would be the storm tasks and pests--mice and virii. I think the bugs are utterly adorable.

Log:
Harvesting tomatoes and strawberries. 1:50am 4/14

Trivia:
Dioecious--seed-bearing plants that have seperate male and female plants (i.e. not male and female parts on the SAME plant)
Gynoecious--female dioecious plant (genome: XX)
Androecious--male dioecious plant (genome: XY)
(There are some lifeforms that do not have an X/Y genome for gender, but Z/W--birds.)
