In Harvest Moon DS: Sunshine Islands from Natsume for the Nintendo DS and DSi, it's up to the player to raise the sunken islands by finding the magical Sun Stones.

The islands are in peril! Years ago, a powerful earthquake struck the Sunshine Islands.

Players will grow and harvest crops, care for animals, mine, fish, and compete in festivals in their quest to restore the Sunshine Islands to their former glory. With a little luck, they may even find true love and start a family along the way.

Raise the islands to meet new characters, harvest new crops, and befriend animals such as ducks, monkeys, and badgers!
