I Love This Game!

This game is not for everyone, I have to say. But I loved it! It is a farm sim where you plant and harvest a variety of crops, raise livestock, hire workers, build farm buidlings, and buy John Deere farm equipment.
I have lived in the city my whole life, but I also enjoy simulation and strategy games. I also like finances and accounting. For those who are looking for action packed, fighting games this title may not be for you.
I liked how simple this game was to learn, yet the challenges make it worth staying. You deal with weather and bugs that can destroy your crops. You struggle with debt (that can be overcome with patience and work) and trying to time the in-game market to buy livestock at the right price as well as sell livestock and the crops you have stored at the right time.
This game is not terribly elaborate, but according to my cousins who live on a farm and a friend who has an animal science degree, this game is quite realistic in terms of running a farm.
So if you are looking for a game that gives you a realistic farm experience, this one is the best I have played. It is fairly inexpensive, too, which is nice. A great way to spend some free hours!

The game is great! Maybe just a few things I would like better but it is still a great game! Now for all you people bashing the game, you don't understand, the game runs GREAT if your computer can handle it. So if you have a slow running computer, its not gonna play well and thats why its all messed up or gliching.

I bought this for my 16 year old son for Christmas. We don't live on a farm but my son has always been interested in farming. He loves the game and plays it often. My 45 year old brother even plays this game and says he would like one for himself.

I have never in my life owned a more useless, annoying piece of software. I downloaded the patch and it made things even worse. No matter what scenario I tried to play, I got crashes and freezes or distortions to the visual effects. If you want something that's going to make you grit your teeth and want to punch the walls, just visit your inlaws - at least when they tick you off it doesn't cost you anything.

It's interesting to a certain point, but there are several bugs within the game and the overall game play is very boring. You do the same thing over and over. I got this as a gift, otherwise I would have never bought it.
Highly recommend!
