Nintendo DS · 2008
About this game
In Rune Factory 2 the player, Kyle by default, is an amnesiac who wanders into the town of Alvarna and is discovered by a girl named Mana.
Like in the first Rune Factory game, the gameplay is a mix of the farming found in the Harvest Moon series and battling.

The player must grow and maintain crops and build up their home, and there are also dungeons to battle and befriend monsters in.
The stamina of your character still depends on the meter of rune points, and once it is depleted it will start draining the meter of health points.
The player will marry a potential girl in the town and have child with her, the gender of the child will be of the player's choosing.
Unlike the Harvest Moon games, the player will then continue playing as the child which is an integral part of the game's plot.
At the point the goal of the game is to build a school, a goal left behind by Kyle one night when he left home.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Rune Factory 2 for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Rune Factory 2 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.

Rarity & condition

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
