Natsume today released the official gameplay footage for Harvest Moon: Frantic Farming, first shown at E3, but not digitally distributed until now. The two-minute footage demonstrates various gameplay mechanics and shows off the 12 playable characters who players can select to portray in the game.

Slated for the Nintendo DS later this month, Harvest Moon: Frantic Farming is a unique, action-packed puzzle game set in the world of last year’s DS hit Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness. With 12 playable characters to choose from and a whole lot of crops to harvest, players will put their green thumbs to the test as they can play in Story Mode, or compete with their friends and family in Multiplayer Mode, and even play against people who don’t have the Game Card via DS Download Play!

Other exciting gameplay modes include Story Mode, the brain-teasing Mission Mode, and the action-puzzle excitement of Score Attack and Free Play Modes. For those who love a challenge, players can also unlock character art, music, and some special surprises in the Collection Room.
