But as you continue to increase your profits that small patch of land you started with is not going to cut it. In this farming simulator PC game, you’ll need to expand your farms reaches across the map. Land can be purchased if you’re wealthy enough but for those with a limited budget you might be better off renting the land until you can afford to own your entire farm. As you obtain more fields to work in, you’ll have to construct roads which allow your vehicles to navigate to the correct patch of land so they can harvest and maintain the fields.
In order to maintain your farm you’ll need to construct a selection of buildings, of which you will have over 40 to construct including; greenhouses, bakeries, butchers and more. You’ll also be able to purchase animals from the traditional chickens and cows to the more unconventional domestic turkeys and ostriches.
Features:
- Develop road networks for your vehicles to use
- Purchase and rent land
- Over 30 different types of seeds to plant
- Over 40 building types
- 12 Different animals to purchase
- Take on contracts to earn more money
- Detailed weather reports

This is a very, very, basic farm management game. Almost feels like a student project to be honest.
The thing I dislike the most is lack of depth or complexity to the game play. Buy land, equipment, and buildings - choose crops to plant - watch the field's progress meter to make sure pesticides are applied at right time - harvest crops when the game prompts you to - sell crops at the market - repeat.
You do not need fancy equipment - the cheapest available works just as well unless you are dealing with huge fields.
Also make sure to have the correct storage building for the specific crop(s) you are farming, or you will not be able to harvest anything.
Best early game crop in the USA region is apples due to higher yield in small fields, and no need to buy a harvester.
its maw, the interface could be more user friendly, being able to build bigger fields and use one menu on multiple fields to plant,harv,spray,ect would be great, but its too much multitasking/management, Simfarm still ten times better and it was made in the 90's
I won't deny it there are bugs, which are rather annoying than game-breaking. The other so called bugs are flaws in game design. If you can look past these, the game is rather fun and relaxing. And the simple and realistic style of 2D graphics in this game makes a good scape from all those cartoony looking farm sims, something I've looked for and haven't seen elsewhere. All in all Mildly recommended with modest content but low price tag.
No. If you are thinking about it, no. If it is on for a deep discount, no(I got it in a 3 game bundle for about $1.09, and don't feel like my money's worth from any of the games). Is you are a masochist, then year, this game might be ideal for you
Farming World is a very realistic modern farm simulation game. But it's very hard to play.
Pros:
+ If you hired an old farmer, he will tell you which plants are best for seeding in the current season.
+ You can rent lands, vehicles or other things with less money.
+ You can also request a loan from bank.
+ Game has a built-in achievement system. When you finished an achievement, you will get a reward.
Cons:
- This game is very hard to master.
- Too much bug. I can't finish some achievements because their progress is keep to 0%.
- There has no clear goal in the campaign mode. So I don't know how to beat the game. Even I have already get over one million money and 100 stars.
- My soil quality was dropped to one star, but I couldn't use fertilizers to recover it. Because the recover speed is much slower than the rate of desertification.
- Even if you used the best pesticides, vehicles and workers, your crops still lost. There are too many factors that can influence crops.
- There is no way to know the final price of your products. Maybe you will have a great deficit when you decide to plant something.
- Everyday will cost 5 money, but I can't find the source.
- Sometimes my game will be crashed because of access violation.
A very nice game, found alot to love it for.
To bad it get a bit monotone once you got all the buildings and a lot of money. At some point nothing can suprise you anymore. Reminds me a bit of SimFarm. A big like to the developers for this gem.
Yet still the game is worth the money.
Dull as crop dust
I'm not sure how to best describe this game, except that I did not like it. I found the tutorial to be unresponsive, so despite being recomended to complete the tutorial I went ahead into a campaign game.
Pros:
Choice of colours for buildings and machinery
Very good and realist selection of crops split into types eg vegetables and root vegetables, legumes and cereals, and so on.
day speed up option
realistic crop cultivation pattern eg plough, plant, fertilise, water, harvest.
choice of country to have farm in.
Cons:
never see the final harvested crop
not user friendly despite easy setting option.
not suited to fans of more active similuator games eg the sims, themepark
Can't see what is in farm buildings
if you buy machinery you are not provided with storage for it or a clear option to build extra garages. [or this option is not to be easily found]
After about 30 mins and having the full fastforward day option on, I was ready to give up, having achieved 1 blackberry crop (grown with organic fertiliser). and no sign of it in any inventory.
If you have played other games by this developer, you may, for good reasons, assume this one is just like the others... This one has so many options to allow interactivity, expanded operations, and an improved statistic tracker to help show you what to do and do differently, etc.
Kind of interesting, but still manages to be both boring and cumbersome. There are large amounts of time where all you can do is wait, which is annoying. Also it's very unclear how to actually make money in this game. For example, I took a contract to make apples, which I did, but for some reason it still said I hadn't fulfilled the contract. I have no idea what I did wrong and the game is not clear at all on how to improve.
I am really enjoying this game. It's a fun game to load up and play for a bit. I did find that starting for the very first time was a bit hard. The game doesn't teach you very much, but after playing a few games you get the hang of it. I would recommend this game if you have some time to kill and just want relax with a (some what simple) fun game.
This was a game I thought might be some light fun as a management game, and had hopes it would be patched to enjoyable state, but as it now seems abandoned by the developer, I have to say that in its "final" state, it is not recommendable to virtually anyone.
Gameplay consists of designating land for specific crops, punching buttons to get someone else to drive the tractor and do all the work, and then hitting fast forward for several days in a row until it's time to punch the next button. It plays in "real time", but EVERYTHING happens at noon, so there's no point in any other time of day. It's not even like there's so much to do that your tractors might not complete a field in 24 hours, either. When the requisite time has been fast forwarded, you punch the "harvest" button, and the picker hoarde zooms through your fields, and you make freakishly large amounts of money. Rinse and repeat forever.
Many of the game features don't even work. There are "contracts" where you can take functional missions to supply specific amounts of product by a specific time... but the button to actually complete a contract was never implemented. There are "rival farmers" you are supposed to "beat", but they basically decide by throwing darts at a chart of options blindfolded. Basically, all you do is plant crops and harvest, and use the money to buy more fields you can plant more crops within.
There are also features that exist, but serve no particular purpose. There is a weather system, with supposed storms coming through (although you can't actually SEE any storms, there are no effects whatsoever but that your crops mysteriously die) but you can't even tell without looking at the weather report menu. Since there's literally nothing you can do about the weather anyway, though, there's no reason to do anything but fast forward through them. There is a star-based unlocking system, but that only serves to make sure you have less variety in your game than you already had. You get stars by harvesting crops, which is the only way you make money, so there's no reason it couldn't have been based upon money, anyway. It only exists this way because Farmville did it, even though it serves no purpose here. Worse, it hides what the actual money price of something will be until AFTER you pay the star costs. Hence, you have to plan your management of your farm around having to pay construction and upkeep costs on a factory whose real costs you can't see until AFTER you invested something in it.
Then there are critically lacking features, like being able to see the prices of crops so that you can strategically plan what you are going to sell before you have actually invested all the time and money into growing them. Yes, that's right, it's a game about picking what crops to grow for the maximum profit *WHERE YOU HAVE NO IDEA AT WHAT PRICE ANYTHING COSTS OR SELLS*. The statistics page is utterly useless, as it shows you absolutely nothing of value, like what fields cost what amount of money to grow anything (you have to track that by hand), and what the crops sold for when you did grow them. You have factories that let you turn raw fruit into canned fruit or other similar intermediate or finished products, but there's no comparison of overhead to finished product and raw material selling prices.
This is a management game where you have nothing to actually manage. There is no strategy here, all land is basically the same (even fertility differences are just papered over with punching a button to "fertilize field"), the whole map is one flat chunk of arable land, no matter where in the world you set up, and climate, once picked, basically ensures you will spend the whole game raising strawberries or potatoes or corn or whatever ad infinitum. No thought, just micromanage those buttons to keep sending out tractors to plow, plant, spray, or harvest before fast-forwarding to the next time to do more of the same.
Ultimately, the game is like playing Candyland with yourself. You roll the dice, have random crap happen to you that you can't do anything about, and then eventually progress further down the board and maybe declare "you win" when you get bored... but this game lacks the finish line, so...
Too easy. It's really hard to fail at anything. Much harder than to succeed.
The most interesting feature I've found was the ability to cut meat out of your animals without killing them. That must be horribly painful and animal rights groups might find this disturbing. But it's an interesting thought. And is balanced by the fact that after the animals reach a certain age they gain civil rights and retirement rights, after which they can no longer be sold or cut.
Farming is ridiculously easy (you rent everything and still get >100% profits), animal harvesting is easier.
It's so easy that if you notice turkey meat sells for more than beef, you can set your butcher to cut your cattle into turkey meat.
TL;DR: it's too easy, devs didn't pay much attention to details and the game gets boring after 10 minutes (that's counting the download time).
I'm a lover of sims, tycoons, and farming. This game had potential for what i was looking for, but in the end everything about it was awful. I was lucky enough to catch the game on sale. I would not buy this game. The graphics are extremely subpar, the tutorial left me lacking for how to do things, which come to find out you can't even turn the buildings. There is no way to see prices without actually having taken the time to grow a crop, which takes at least 15 mins real time to do. Even then, I was extremely disappointed that growing things hardly ever yielded a profit and raising chickens was the way to go. Overall i'd give it 0/10. DO NOT BUY!!!!!
A better name for this game would be Waiting World, since the only things you can do in this game are waiting, and waiting some more.
There are no redeeming features whatsoever. I would dissect the game's mechanics to point out where and how it went wrong, but there are no mechanics to dissect aside from waiting for a crop to finish and then waiting some more.
If you want a farm game that's more interesting, get Sim Farm from somewhere. But whatever you do, avoid this one.
I was excited about this game but game just keeps crashing.. I played for 13 min and game crashed twice for that short period of time. Now am angry about steam NO refund policies!!
Tedious, tedious tedious. I'd rather watch real grass grow. half an hour to harvest one small field that yielded 50.6 percent after tender care. There are so many other sims on Steam that deserve your money, Game Dev Tycoon, Cars Incorporated, for example, not this one. 1990's graphics, no way to adjust screen resolution, miniature text. A huge waste of money. Unless you're living in 1995 then it would seem brand new.
This is my first review and I feel like I should express my feeling after playing this game for 2 hrs so noone would have to face the same expirience.
This game is boring. There are lots of flaw in this game for example:
- No auto-feed for livestocks so you have to feed them by clicking. Imaging you have like 10+ barns
- Kinda broken. You can earn a lot of money from selling produced food e.g steak and chicken meat. There is no need to plant any crop
- AI is way stupid. It will do almost nothing. You will feel like you're playing alone.
- No way to cure disease for your crop!?
- Background music is lame and repeatitive
- No shortkeys so you have to click everything (Facebook style)
- Way too easy to play. And you have to collect more stars to unlock more stuff with aren't worth unlocking.
The only good thing about this game is it tells you the suitable temperature for each crop so you might be able to try to plant them in real life (I guess). That's all I could think of...
Sorry for my bad English..
This Game is BOOOOOORING!
The Tutorial is really slow, and is a bit irritating.
i have played about an hour of freeplay, and either i have not found it or it has no automation at all!
wich is infuriating if you have 15 cow stables and everyone needs to be klicked twice every minute.
also the UI is suboptimal, it is too complicatet too sell stuff (again no auto), and every window needs too be closed by clicking a 3 pixel X, before its possible to do other things, like open the window you wanted to open in the first place, but you misclicked because the mouseovers are too slow, and the buttons for the menu are not intiutive.
One might say i have not played enough to Judge, but i say this game punishes you for playing, so i´m not trying again!
Sincerly

Best 2D/2.5D dimensional farm manager game, what I have ever played, only in multiplayer is missing. Testimonials! c:

Paras 2D/2.5D ulotteinen maatilan managerointi peli, jota olen ikinä pelannut, vain monipeli puuttuu. Suositteluni! c:
It's a decent farming game. The graphics look very outdated, reminded me of early simulators like SimFarm, but if you are a fan of the genre, it probably won't matter that much.
The gameplay is pretty straight forward, going away from the "driving farming machinery" approach that some current simulators take and focusing on timing the planting acording to the season and planing when to sell the crops.
There's a problem with the DEP registering that prevents the game from running. If you are experiencing this, try add the game executable to the DEP exception list and it should solve the issue.
I would recommend this if you are already a fan of the genre or if you don't mind the simple graphics.
Ok ill burst the bubble.
Most look at the screenies and think is this a facebook game?
Answer is yes, graphics and gameplay is totally facebook.
You even click stars that appear on the ground!
All you do is lay a field , click harvest etc, and do the same again, once money is earned you can buy a second field and repeat.
This is my first impression of such a short play but this is the game straight away soon as you start playing, this is just my honest impression.
As for bugs, yes there are bugs, like fields getting stuck and wont grow, only option you have is to restart the field all over again, this means it could actually bankrupt you and game ends.
The timer does not stop for everything either, you could miss a step on your field because a pop up window opens and you have missed the timer on your field to click to send it into the next stage.
I love these type of games but i am being honest here after only playing this game a short while, so yes this is a early impression.
Games like this belong on facebook not on steam in my opinion.
