Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility is a farming and life simulation game for the Nintendo Wii. It was released on September 30, 2008. Few reviews are currently available, but the October 2008 issue of Game Informer gave the game a 6.5 out of 10 score, citing that it played just like previous games in the series, and that the motion controls were a nuisance. "Despite these hang-ups, I still found myself playing late into the night to earn enough cash to buy that coop upgrade or put in another few days until my cow is fully grown... Bottom line: if you're expecting nothing out of Tree of Tranquility except the same old same old, then this will do the trick."

The Harvest Moon franchise celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2008. The first Harvest Moon game launched on the Super Nintendo in 1998. Since then, there have been more than 20 versions of the game on 10 platforms. Publisher Natsume says Harvest Moon games have sold millions of units all over the world.Natsume: Official Site
