Record Keeping Trophy in Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life Special Edition

  • Record Keeping

     

    Collect 10 different records.

    How to unlock Record Keeping

    You start out with 2 Records: Breeze, which is on your record-player and Silent Winter which you can find on the shelf in your tool shed. This means you'll have to obtain another 8 records, and for most of them you'll have to befriend people again. Luckily, you can buy one more record from Van starting Ch. 2, Spring Song for 430g.

    Additionally to the record you can buy, one of them, 64 Memories, is unlocked by winning Territory Capture 10 times. Remember that you can play only 1 round of Territory Capture each day, so try and go there whenever you can until you get the record. Obtaining both these records allows you to befriend only 6 instead of 8 townfolk, which I strongly recommend you do as two of them, namely Marlin and Rock, are incredibly time-consuming compared to the other villagers.

    For more information on how to befriend people, check The Right Tool for the Job.

    Here's a list of people you have to befriend, what they like etc.:

    1. Griffin - Record: Marine Jazz - Fish, Coins, Trick Blue Flowers
      Enter his private room in the Blue Bar when he's in there alone, around 2PM and talk to him.
    2. Rock - Record: Flowerbud Fall - Toyflower, Mist Moon Flower, Cooked Dishes
      Another one I recommend you skip. If you don't want to skip him, you can find him in his room around noon. He soon after leaves for breakfeast though, meaning you have to look for him around town. Rock is one of the most time consuming people to befriend alongside Marlin, so be prepared to visit him a lot. A good indicator that you're nearly done is when he starts talking about writing a book. Answer "Maybe So" in order to potentially speed up the process.
    3. Marlin - Record: Butterfly - Milk, Eggs
      Probably the most time consuming person to befriend. I recommend you skip him, but if you really don't want to, brace yourself to pump A LOT of eggs into him. Talk to him on a Van day near the waterfall to obtain your gift, eventually.
    4. Chris - Record: The Bride - Flowers, Apples, Milk
      Talk to her on her way home from work or when she's in her home to obtain her gift.
    5. Kate - Record: Winter HM - Flowers, Fish
      Kate moves into the Valley at the start of Ch. 2, so you will be unable to befriend her before that. Once you're friends with her, visit her in her room at 6AM to get your record.
    6. Carter - Record: Summer Memories - Fish
      Talk to him on a Van day to receive your gift. He will not accept gifts during his morning work out (arms stretched out) or when he's looking at the ground in the dig site. He will, however, accept them if he's simply standing or walking around in the dig site.
    7. Mukumuku - Record: Joy of Fall - Fish, Flowers (up to x5 each day, for a total of up to 10 presents a day)
      Mukumuku is only available during Winter. You can find him on the way to, or around, the Spring. Try and give him the max. number of presents you can each day to not only speed up the process, but make some nice extra money - Mukumuku keeps gifting you his record for some unknown reason once every day you visit him after you're friends.
    8. Sebastian - Record: Town Spirit - Fish, high quality Butter and Cheese
      Visit him in his room in Romana's Villa when he's in there alone to obtain your present once you're his friend.

Comments
  • Note: When collecting records from people, you must befriend them (ie: as they walk past you, their heads look at you and follow you). But for some characters that isnt enough. If you have befriended a character and they are still not giving you the Music Record, keep giving them presents they like to better the friendship.
  • Breeze Record Default is in the record player in your house.
  • Quiet Winter Record Default is in your Storage Shelf in the tool shed at the beginning of the game.
  • Town Spirit Record Obtained by befriending Sebastien (The Butler at the Villa) Befriend him by giving him fish, food, fossils, statues. He will give you the record when you catch him in his room (Downstairs furthest right door at the Villa) and he likes you enough. I was able to obtain this in the first year.
  • 64 Memories Record Obtained from Kassey/Patrick (In my case Kassey) (The firework making twins in the elevated hut just down the hill from the path to the Villa) Beat them at Territory Capture 9 or 10 times and he will reward you with the record. They can be challenged to their game around 11:00am to 1:00pm. Refer to Trophy "Game Time" for strategies on winning Territory Capture.
  • Joy of Fall Record Obtained by befriending Mukumuku (White Yeti/Beast the hangs out by the Sprites Spring in the winter) Befriend Mukumuku by giving him eggs, fish, flowers, fodder. Talk to him when he likes you enough and he'll give you the Music Record.
  • Spring Song Record Can be purchased from Van in Chapter 2 Year 1 Simply purchase. I am not certain how long it is for sale as I purchased it in Spring of Chapter 2 Year 1.
  • The Bride Record Obtained by befriending Chris (The Working Lady/Wallys Wife/Hughs Mom in the furthest left house in the row of houses in town) Befriend Chris by giving her flowers. Talk to her anywhere and she'll give it to you if she likes you enough.
  • Winter HM Record Obtained by befriending Kate (Grant and Samanthas Daughter. They live in the house in the center of the row or houses in town, but this house doesnt appear until the first year of Chapter 2) Befriend Kate by giving her flowers. Talk to her when she is in her room and she'll give it to you if she likes you enough. I happened to get it when she goes to her room in the evening on a day Van is in town at 9:45pm.
  • Marine Jazz Record Obtained by befriending Griffin (Bar Owner) Befriend him by giving him fish, ores, gold coins. He can be given presents even when he is behind the bar. He'll give you his record if you talk to him in his room behind the bar if he likes you enough. I waited until he was about tk close the bar at 1:00am and followed him into the back room and he gave it to me. Some sites say he has to be alone, but Muffy was present when I got it.
  • AWLSE? Record Obtained from befriending Hugh then talk to him when he is upstairs of his house. In chapter 1 he will like Milk. After chapter 1, you will have to give him coins, sugar ores, and moon ores.
  • The question mark in the comment above is suppose to be a STAR symbol.
  • Not sure if the game glitched in my favor, but I'm currently in year 2 winter with only 8 records. I was getting the records from Mukumum to sell and the trophy popped for me after the 2nd day? I call this a win in my books!
