This is probably the only game you will see me rate at the very top. I love it! I've had it for years and still love to play it. It's challenengeing yet doable. Why is there not another Farm Mania? Why not give us games we love, instead of phasing them out and replacing with time management games that just fizzle? Come on BigFish, Many of us have been loyal members from the time your site began. Help us love BigFish again!!! Not everyone is in love with all those mystery hidden object games.
I recommend this game!

What were they thinking in the creation of this game? I even bought it thinking maybe it had potential. Nope. It moves slower than slow as you click and watch, click and watch. etc etc. Many of the so called challenges was a matter of waiting for the game to create enough resources to be able to move forward. Collect gold? Sure you have a 'goldmine' you click for instant gold, but you must obtain enough 'mana' to collect it.... which btw increases at a snails pace. Another person wrote the game did not explain itself. Nailed it. Went thru the instructions time and time again to find out what the meaning of this or that was. Nope, not a hint. I restarted the game probably a dozen times because I get to a certain place and it just stalls... nothing to do but watch as the ppl strike, bldgs need to be repaired, food production runs out, put out fires, and repeat these items again and again. Total waste of money, and painfully boring waiting for something to pick up.
I don't recommend this game.

I tried the trial hoping there would be an added element of interest, but immediately realized it was more of the same gathering and more gathering. You click for a zombie to clear the path. He runs to fetch and return to go. And it goes on and on. It's gathering and fetching, and sometimes having to wait for an object to product more wood or food for you to gather before being able to clear the path to next level of clicking and gathering. The graphics were ok. The sound of the zombie saying 'I will go' in the most bored voice I've ever heard made me turn the sound off after the first few tries. Maybe I just don't get it, but for me the game was repetitive beyond belief, thus boring.
I don't recommend this game.

It's obvious the graphics are nice, but all it is is click bait. Something appears, >>>> click it. That's pretty much the entire trial time period. I mean really?
I don't recommend this game.

I'm not getting the idea of the game. The graphics and sound are all very nice, but the game play itself seems to be aimed at children(?). Games like everything else on the internet has a very short window to grab your attention. This one just isn't doing that and it's lost my attention and I'm not a fast paced game player by any means.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm not one that gives out 5 stars very easy, But I am with this game. Wish BigFish would get with it and promote more like it. Maybe 1 thing about the game is I wish there were more levels. You can easily go thru all the levels in a day. I replayed it many times already and look forward to replaying again to improve my accuracy. I really like it. Seems like ages I've been waiting for something like this, and now I want more.
I recommend this game!

It's different and not a complete fail. The bright colors start to bother my eyes after awhile and I have shut it down. It's a gathering game with an amusing twist. What I found boring, is waiting for the items to be collected. As the game progresses the paths containing collectibles become numerous and get further and further away from the deposit coach. After that mining many of the objects gets longer, which leads up to a lot of wait for the minions to run to the object, many times mining it, then running all the way back to deposit it. Further into the game, more and more is being packed in and the visual effect gets messing looking. Of course this is only my opinion and I know many others like, but for the money I was disappointed.
I don't recommend this game.

I can't imagine how this game got 5 stars. Nothing new with this type of game, except the coloring of tiles made it extremely hard on my eyes. I found it difficult to play and very distracting. Sorry. Come on BigFish, give me a reason to spend my money. Bring back FUN games and ditch the dark depressing ones. Farm Mania Hot Vacation was great! The other farm games was way too much clicking and actually made my fingers start cramping. You have players with varied interests, feed us.
I don't recommend this game.

I don't get much into wordy stuff, but just saying I liked this game very much. It challenged me and yet was do-able. Fall is my favorite time of year, and the colors incorporated into the game was welcomed eye candy.
I recommend this game!

I have been starving for a fun game for nearly a year. I went against my better judgement and upon seeing nearly 5 stars with this new game, went straight into buy mode. Never again. I kept waiting for the fun to start. Surely this game has got to become challenging and interesting before too much longer. Nope. I was in disbelief when I finished the first map and discovered, that was it. In a matter of hours, the game was over. The graphics were sort of cute. The sounds of the game didn't raise the roof of the house... unless you are buying for a child, don't get sucked in to buying this one.
I don't recommend this game.
