About this game
Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny introduces you to two new protagonists, Aden and Sonja who, due to mysterious circumstances are two souls trapped in one body! They find themselves not only stuck together but transported to a strange new island and no way to get home.
You must take the role of Aden and befriend the locals while exploring the oceans on your newly found Golem to find the truth and a way to restore Sonja back to her body.

Besides exploration and fighting, the game allows you to perform various other activities such as farming, cooking, crafting and fishing.
Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny is the second of its series to be released on the Wii and the first on the PS3 and it brings many new enhancements.
One of the newest additions is your Golem, which you will use to explore the ocean surrounding Fenith Island.
The combat has been updated from that of Frontier , adding new weapons such as Dual Blades and Katanas.
You now have the ability to unlock up to 4 farms, one for each season.
The Winter farm acts as a Mine where you can harvest ores and gems while the other three stay true to the series by having seasonal crops such as Cabbage in Spring, Corn in Summer, and Eggplants in Fall.
Nearly the entire game is now voice acted as well.
While you can play as a Male, in the end game there is an option to take over playing as the Female protagonist and marry one of 4 male choices.
About Nintendo Wii
Launched in 2006, the Wii's motion controls (Wii Remote) brought casual and non-traditional players into console gaming at a scale no prior system had achieved, making it one of the best-selling consoles ever. Because so many Wii units sold with bundled software like Wii Sports, the bulk of the library is inexpensive to collect — but it also means truly rare Wii titles (often niche Japanese-only releases) stand out sharply from the norm.
Gamevaro tracks Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny for Nintendo Wii with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WII release dates back to 2011.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Wii titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
