Farmerama
Farmerama is farming simulator by Bigpoint where players can grow and harvest crops and raise animals. Through a variety of chores and delivery orders, players level up and gain access to more advanced crops and more rare animals. As of November 2010, there are over 17 million registered users of the game, available in over 30 different languages.
Environment
Each player begins with a simple farm which can be expanded upon and customized depending on where a player chooses to place their decorations, animal pens, crops, etc. There is also a City that players can visit where they can purchase seeds, expand their buildings and send gifts to neighbors.
Gameplay
A vibrant color palette and an easy to learn point and click interface.
Economy
- Items can be purchased with either Country Coins (virtual currency) or Barnyard bills (real currency). There is also a Farmers Market (called barter and bargain hut) where players can buy or sell their crops, animals and other things.
Farming and Livestock
- When the land is properly prepared, seeds can be planted. After a time (different to each specific crop), the seeds will mature and sprout into a crop that can be harvested for experience points and saved for use in delivery orders. This growing process can be sped up by Using Water on the land before the crop is fully grown. Manure helps protect your crop from flooding during rain.
- If an animal pen is built on the land, animals can be raised and given food and water until they reach maturity. Once they are fully grown, they can be used for delivery orders or offered for sale at the Farmers Market. Experience points are also gained from raising animals.
Players
- Players can add each other as Neighbors. Neighbors can help one another clear land, making it suitable for farming, as well as give out gifts that aid in the farming process.
The City
- The City offers many different shops and features. There is a Farmers Market, a seed shop and nursery for crop purchases, a post office for sending messages, a carpenter for constructing pens, a supply store where players can buy decorative items and a farm wheel which grants the player a daily bonus.
