Having a hard time with Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility ? Or do you just want some tips? Here is how to best get started on your ranch so that it works for you.
Steps
-
When you start, be sure to name your character something you'll want to be called throughout the whole game. You can also choose one of the default names.
-
2Choose your house depending on what you'll be doing mostly. The main idea is to farm, but you don't have to be a farmer. You can be a rancher, a nurse, a fisherman, or other options available for you. Some places you can work part time and watch a cutscene, and the farming is where you use the remote to work.You will be able to choose a plot of land for your house, and the location works with what you want to do. All plots are good fro raising animals.Advertisement
- If you want to fish a lot, try the seaside plot. The seaside plot also has a large planting area, so if you decide to grow plants too, you'll be ready.
- The town plot is nice if you work in town. It doesn't have a ton of room to plant, but it's enough to plant a small garden.
- The hillside plot is nice if you're either a blacksmith, woodworker, but it can also be for ranchers, since you're closer to Brownie Ranch, where you buy the animals.
- There is one last plot, but that's only available if you earn enough money. Then you can go to the town hall and buy that plot of land. It has a large planting area, so it's good for farmers, or if you want to create an orchard.
-
1When you farm, pick all of the weeds out of your garden. When you have X's over your eyes, head to the hot spring. You can get to it when you go to caramel falls. Near the monkey are some slanted rocks. Climb up them to get to the hot spring. Bathe in it to restore your energy. You can only use it once a day. Once all your weeds are picked, plow six spots in a row. You can plant your seeds if you face the way the row is.
- Trees require eight tilled spots to be planted. Till three spots in a row, then move to the right and till two spots. Move once more to the right and till three spots again. Plant the sapling in the middle, and you have a tree.
-
1Water your plants everyday, unless it rains or storms. After you water them, you can use the hot springs again if your stamina is low.Advertisement
- Remember, you can use it only once a day.
-
After your done working on your farm for the day, you can go talk to people. Some villagers you can marry. Pick your favorite out of the little booklet from the game case. If the person you like is not in your town:
- Create the first rainbow. To create the first rainbow, ship 1000G worth of stuff. The mayor will then come and talk to you. Ship another 1000G. The mayor will now tell you a story about the rainbow quilt and the harvest goddess. Talk to Gill about it, and he wants you to upgrade your house to level two before he speaks to you. Make 3000G and go talk to Dale, then upgrade your house. Talk to Gill again. He tells you some important stuff. Talk to the Mayor again. Find the other half of the quilt. (It's in the clock tower located in the town square.) Water the flower under the big tree near the clock. The harvest sprite will ask you to collect materials to create the first rainbow. You will need an apple, a common seashell, good herb fish, carp, and grilled yam. You can find some of these items during the Flea Market.
-
1Now people will start moving in. Once you find the one your want to marry, talk to them everyday, part-time at the place they work at, give them stuff, and talk to them every time you see them. They will warm up to you, and confess their feelings at six hears. Once they are up to eight hearts, the Mayor will tell you about the Blue Bird, and the blue feather. If you see the blue bird around your house, go to Carmel falls. You'll find the feather and you can ask your boyfriend/girlfriend to marry you. If they have a quest for you, and you haven't finished that, you will need to finish that first before proposing. After a whole year of being married, you'll have a kid if your house is at level 5.Advertisement
- You can pick if it's a girl or boy. When you wife/husband asks you to come pray about the kid, do it, then pick the gender. Easy right? You can also pick a 50/50 chance of both if you wish
-
1Be creative and make sure to save your money. You will need money to buy seeds, animals, and other things. You can earn money by working part-time, foraging, farming, mining, and fishing. If you make friends with the animals, once you raise two and four hearts with them, you'll receive gifts. You can also receive gifts from the bachelors and bachelorettes once you raise enough hearts.
- Try saving your money for a whole year, not buying anything except seeds. Fish and mine as much as you can. You should have enough money by the end of the year, you won't run out.
- Spend only little bits at a time, and you'll always have cash on hand, in case you really need to buy something that's expensive.

QuestionHow do I get enough money to buy the things I need and other people's gifts?RiverCommunity AnswerStart planting your crops. When they grow and you harvest them, put them in the shipping bin. You can also work at part time jobs in the shops, mine for minerals, forage and fish. When you mine, see Mira at the blacksmith to refine the ores for you.

QuestionHow do I make friends saving my money for a whole year, not buying anything but seeds.RiverCommunity AnswerYou can talk with the villagers. You can also give them gifts of your produce, refined minerals and the items you pick up from foraging. You can find those items at Brownie Ranch, Praline Woods and other places.

QuestionI have the five ingredients for the first rainbow recipe, but the sprite keeps asking me what ingredient I want to know about. What's going on?RiverCommunity AnswerTry restarting the game. If it's still going on, maybe it's a problem with that account. Create a new save slot and, if the bug occurs, you can try cleaning the disc. If the problem still occurs, you can see if Natsume has been told about the bug and has a solution. If not, you can contact them and ask them.
