Recurring themes

Crashes & Freezing negative
Many users report the game frequently crashes, freezes, or forcibly closes, especially when trying to buy items or add animals, making it difficult or impossible to play. This issue contradicts the developer's notes implying a 'relaxing fun' experience.R1R3R4R5
Monetization & Paywall negative
A significant number of reviews criticize the game for being too expensive and forcing players to spend real money to advance, get storage, or clear land. Users feel it's not truly 'free' and that progress is severely limited without purchases. Subscription costs are also highlighted as excessive, with some reporting $7.99/week or $12/month.R5R6R10R16
Glitches & Bugs negative
Beyond crashes, many specific glitches are reported, such as unharvestable crops or flowers, factories not opening or working, tasks not completing, and issues with selling products. Some users also report problems with VIP subscriptions not activating and incorrect charges.R2R7R15R16
Storage & Expansion negative
Players frequently complain about insufficient barn and silo storage, which quickly fills up and prevents them from collecting new items or completing orders. Expanding storage is often cited as expensive or difficult due to a lack of necessary tools.R6R12R34R36
Gameplay Experience mixed
Many users find the game fun, addictive, and relaxing with good graphics. However, some find it boring, too restrictive, or dislike recent changes. There are also complaints about long wait times for items and the difficulty of obtaining tools.R3R8R9R13
Customer Support negative
Several users report issues with contacting support, receiving no response, or having problems unresolved for extended periods, especially concerning lost purchases or game progress.R49R50R58R73

Who it's for

This game is for players who enjoy casual farming simulation games with appealing graphics and are willing to be patient with progression or spend money on in-app purchases . It might appeal to those looking for a relaxing game experience, provided they can overlook frequent technical issues R39R88.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, focusing on technical issues and aggressive monetization. While the lifetime rating is high, the recent sentiment suggests a decline in user satisfaction, possibly due to recent updates or changes in monetization strategy. The developer's release notes are vague and do not address the specific issues reported by users.

  1. [R14] 5/5 · US Best Farming game: My Favourite game. Recommended.
  2. [R15] 4/5 · US Beautiful but glitchy: This is an enjoyable game. Beautiful graphics, lots of choices, optional ads, and long wait times to prevent excessive gaming in one sitting. However, it glitches regularly. I think my whole iPad is slower since downloading this game.
  3. [R40] 5/5 · US Cute: This is a cute little game... could use some updates... but its actually addicting...
  4. [R61] 5/5 · US Farm Town: Great game! Great graphics. Love it!
  5. [R39] 4/5 · US Farm town: Great game but it freezes on me it is on my new iPhone too I enjoy it it’s relaxing and fun would give5 if it didn’t freeze up
  6. [R53] 4/5 · US Love it: The game is very fun! It has no ads. But I think it can improve by giving you more things to do and less time to wait. But I still love the game and highly recommend it!
  7. [R88] 4/5 · US Such a cute little game!: I like that I can relax and play it..
  8. [R102] 5/5 · US Farm town: There are a lot of fun things to this game I thought it was going to be like the old farm town game I used to see on fb nope it's much better
  9. [R11] 5/5 · US Amazing game: It’s amazing you can watch videos and get diamonds. You can just do a bunch and it’s totally epic and rock on.
  10. [R41] 4/5 · US I love it: It has so much stuff to do and you have stuff done really fast so that is one reason the other is I think you get so much stuff in one level so that is another thing that I like about the game maybe make the mine a little easier to do stuff and make it easier to get tools like shovels and pickaxes and stuff like that over all great game and keep up the good work. Oh I would also thank y
  11. [R1] 4/5 · US Crashes: Cool game put everything I try to buy and ova the puff pen it freezes and I have to force close the app and do my last few actions over again. Annoying. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled. Same problem. Lmk when it’s fixed I’ll play again.
  12. [R4] 1/5 · US Need help: My game have problem.when i want to add new animals the game is stop and get out.please help and ok this problem
  13. [R23] 1/5 · US Crash: Don’t know what you did but now game crashes seconds after it finally starts
  14. [R5] 1/5 · US Expensive: Game kept crashing and cost me 9 diamonds to cut 1 tree not realizing it was just crashing. After I refresh the app, the tree finally disappeared. You must pay to advance and tree have to be cut twice … not worth it.
  15. [R6] 1/5 · US Don’t get this game: Don’t get this game unless you want to spend money. It’s not technically free. I loved this game at first. Can’t get enough storage unless I pay actual money. And all the diamonds I get to pay for extra storage goes into a piggy bank that you have to pay money for.
  16. [R42] 3/5 · US Fun but there’s a problem: It’s super fun! Until your silo is full, yet you still don’t have the needed supplies to make needed items. You’re basically stuck with no way to collect anything else and no way to make anything. The real farm town was never this restrictive and pushing you to spend money to advance
  17. [R67] 1/5 · US Deleting the game: Only played for a few days. It’s impossible to advance without spending real money. My silo is always full. I could go on and on with the complaints. Going back to “Hayday” were I can advance without spending “real” money, especially in the beginning.
  18. [R7] 1/5 · US Game: Your game is broken. It is asked me to put chicken food into the factory and make it two out of three of them.. and I have done that six different times and yet the task is not done because yet it keeps telling me to say do the same thing and it does that with other factories. Your game is broken. I have asked you guys to fix this before you guys said you’re gonna fix it you about it and yet
  19. [R48] 2/5 · US Game glitch?: The past week I have barely been able to pick any of my flowers or ground fruit plants! No matter how many time I click them or run the basket over them to collect it never does or it takes at least 5 minutes of me swiping across them to just get one thing. Super frustrating!
  20. [R79] 2/5 · US Problem: This game appears as if it could be a lot of fun. The graphics and structure sizes are really nice, but this is my problem. First, the crop do not always grow on the land site that you select. Second, my biggest problem are the structures. Once the blue ribbons are in place Indicating completion they are slow to open. I have not been able to open my sugar mill at all. The structure just j
  21. [R43] 2/5 · US Inadequate storage: The storage of items is too small to be able to have the items on hand to complete orders necessary to earn $$$. This makes it near impossible to build next level items and proceed in pace with the various levels.
  22. [R75] 2/5 · US Needs improvements: I love the game but it needs some tending to. It’s hard to do anything cause there is no room in barn or silo, so then you can’t collect the items you need for task. I really like playing this game but you can’t do anything. Can’t rotate things to make room nor collect the game is frustrating...if can’t get better improvements I will be deleting the game.
  23. [R77] 3/5 · US Love the game but......: Glitchy. Can’t become VIP as nothing happens when I click on it. You really have to spend real money in order to grow your farm. Plots have too many trees and shrubs that need to be removed but you rarely get the needed tools to do so. Graphics are awesome and it is fun to play. But it is hard to justify spending real money just to plow the field and store the items. Sor
  24. [R86] 3/5 · US needs a few things: needs a way to be able to sell excess things in your silo. not just storage. more interaction with town. it’s basically just to look at. interact with other gamers. not just solo play. and more opportunities to get tools. it’s hard to earn coins. and things u need to pay for are expensive
  25. [R142] 3/5 · US Fun, but needs a little work: This is a fun game and has potential to be a "keeper". It is very difficult to earn diamonds and tools to remove stuff to build up the town. They need to be easier to get and easier to earn coins. But, everything is cute and I think it can be a good game.
  26. [R29] 2/5 · US Sad face: I was enjoying this game until I realized that the game detracted my progress. In granny’s living room it is really difficult to get enough green tickets to upgrade and I had made it to 22/27. But just now when I looked up, it detracted me to 21/27. The tickets do not reflect the change either. Also, side note: I like the idea of a subscription, but $7.99/week is ridiculous. You expect
  27. [R46] 3/5 · US Good, but be ready to spend....: It’s a VERY good game. One of my favorites out there but if you really want to keep your farm up & make it look good without a bunch of dead plants & trees, be ready to fork out some money. Don’t get me wrong....I know everybody has to make money but, I just think $8.00 a week to be able to do what you need to do? Come on! If it were $8.00 month, then it would defi
  28. [R55] 1/5 · US To bad: The subscription option doesn’t work for iPhone so we miss out on all the discounts other users get.
  29. [R58] 3/5 · US Cost more than says: I love the game. But my daughter was playing it yesterday clicked on. 7$ game package and y’all took out 10$ extra. This happened twice yesterday. We try to contact y’all about it and we get no response!
  30. [R9] 1/5 · US Last update: Last update is horrible all the changes in the game mode are so unnecessary
  31. [R12] 1/5 · US Updates last night messed up this game: I had been playing this game for a year or so and really enjoyed it. However recent changes last night altered the game significantly, when pear trees are harvested they cannot be removed, I upgraded my silo which should have increased its capacity, however it removed +/- 20,000! Not worth wasting time on anymore
  32. [R24] 1/5 · US New upgrade: This has taken a fun game to a nightmare.. the screen hops all over the place and I can’t get to the “x” to close out any screens.. I cant harvest half of my animals because it bounces them out of view.. it was bad enough having those stupid upgrade arrows on the screen.. now they are bigger, uglier and it takes 4 clicks to check to see if you have enough ropes to upgrade.. I can’t pl
  33. [R96] 5/5 · US love it: WOW this game updated a lot I haven’t played in probably 2 years cuz I never cared fore it now it looks better the only thing is I don’t like the bags when u collect the harvest and I don’t like the sound after u collect something but otherwise great game I give 👍👍
  34. [R52] 1/5 · US Saludos: No me gusta para nada, no puedo tener a nadie de amigos.
  35. [R70] 2/5 · US Neighborhoods or some sort of clan system: This game needs a way where all players can join together whether it’s for an event or to talk with others and be a part of a community.
  36. [R98] 3/5 · US Not like the original: This is ok but it’s not as fun and interacting as the original “Farm Town” FaceBook put out. Not as easy to earn coin or jewels. Hard to understand how it all works and by the time you realize what you need and how to get it you end up waiting 25-45 min for stuff to “make”. Growing trees... understandable but grinding grain and what not... Miss the old Farm Town and getting
  37. [R3] 2/5 · US Fun game.: This was a fun game. Now if you want to refuse the choices for the characters you gave to watch a video every time. That ruined it. Now the screen goes black. I have to delete and starting again. 3 times in 1 month. Stop the videos to change items.
  38. [R10] 1/5 · US Ability to water plants: I spent so much money on this game already, all the plants I bought keep dying after producing the harvest maybe twice and to water them is completely impossible, the feature is not available unless you purchase a membership and even though after you do you maybe able to water 1-2 plants to bring them to life. That is just crazy, and a rip off of my money. I have to keep b
  39. [R16] 3/5 · US I’m so confused: On the special offer board you get gems for free, then watch a video to get the other free things, then get free coins but the next option just has “8” next to it, I’m confused because when I click on it, it does nothing. Is this the subscription only button or?????
  40. [R2] 1/5 · US F4ck: Why can't I buy a peacock habitat????? Not on my iPhone nor on my Android?!?! · translated
  41. [R34] 3/5 · US Ok-Ish Game: The game is very interesting at the beginning but soon your space on your farm gets full BECAUSE OF THE ANNOYING BUILDINGS!!! Please have more open area at the start Don’t Focus On Just Your New Games focus on all your games because that is what makes people happy when you fix more glitches then you might get more players.
  42. [R36] 1/5 · US So upset: I had been playing this game for weeks and decided to try out the membership for 7.99 a week. I decided I didn’t want to pay for it so I cancelled it after one week. It reset my silo and storage to what it was at the beginning of the game, so now they are overflowing with all of the stuff I had and I can’t collect any crops or things I made. I literally can’t play the game anymore becaus
  43. [R8] 1/5 · US Please Fix!!!!!: Please fix how long you give to complete orders. It is impossible to make an order in the time you allow. Please fix as I really like this game
  44. [R13] 3/5 · US Hate tutorials!: I came back to the game after many years and now I have to deal with tutorials WICH I hate so much

  46. [R50] 3/5 · US Confused: I need someone from app support to acknowledge that I have asked a question about their game please. I have already sent a review stating that I can’t figure out how to do something and I need help figuring it out please !!!! I want to get the pig and peacock and it says that I need to build a yard first but I don’t know how to go about that . Help please !!!
