Gardening Mama 2: Forest Friends

Gardening Mama is back. This time she's asked to help out local forest friends (such as bears, rabbits, and squirrels) with resources they need for their shops. Each day, players receive a request from a forest friend that they can either accept or decline. They also receive letters with requests for gardening help in exchange for specific types of seeds. These letters (50 in all) are tied to gardening-themed mini-games that must be completed before a seed is unlocked. Each game has a score level that must be reached before it's completed; fortunately, the score from each attempt is added to the previous one, so it may only take a couple of tries to complete a difficult challenge. Once seeds are unlocked, players can plant, water, and eventually pick grown plants to supply the forest friends' shops. Plants take time and space to grow; these are in limited supply, especially early in the game. That means players must plan carefully to meet requests in a reasonable amount of time. They also have to water and care for plants properly to achieve a gold standard on the garden. When Gardening Mama delivers her goods, the forest friends give her special tickets she can use to decorate her garden. As play continues, the garden expands, and more items are available for decoration.
