Harvest Moon: Tree Of Tanquility

Description: Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility follows on the heels of the 10 year anniversary of Harvest Moon.

In the latest Harvest Moon for the Nintendo Wii, the game follows the main character to a new island town, who lost its power to grow. The Mother Tree is the essence that breathes life into the island, and has been out of power. It is of course up to you to restore life, and balance to the island all the while tending to your farm, and quest to find a wife.

Reviews

IGN – 6.5/10: “Tree of Tranquility is a decent offering whether you’re new to the series, or making your first plunge into the world of Harvest Moon. The game spends a great deal of time focusing on the farming and economy of the game, and less on the courting and AI interaction (something we certainly miss), but it also lays a nice groundwork for future Wii titles. 480i and 4:3 display definitely hurt the game, and the title could exist on any system, as it doesn’t make use of the Wii controllers very well, but if you’re looking for a core Harvest Moon experience, you’ll get a decent taste here. “

Cheat Code Central – 3.6/5: “While Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility will provide countless hours of fun for those only vaguely familiar with the series, there isn’t much new content here for those who have been with the series for the past ten years. Sure, exploring the island is great, and the new characters are always fun, but the game experience remains virtually unchanged from past iterations, which is my chief complaint.”
