Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility

About

Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility is a farming simulation and adventure RPG developed by Marvelous Interactive, released in 2007 for the Wii. Set on an island town that has fallen into decline, the game tasks players with restoring the land after the mythical Mother Tree has gone dormant and the Harvest Goddess has disappeared, severing the island's connection to nature. Gameplay revolves around cultivating crops, raising and befriending animals, building relationships with townspeople, and starting a family, all while working toward reviving the island's lost vitality. Participation in festivals adds variety to the day-to-day rhythm of farm life. The game features an overarching storyline that gives long-term purpose to its activities, appealing both to series veterans and newcomers. Controls are built around the Wii Remote, incorporating motion-based inputs intended to reflect the physical nature of farming tasks.
