Review

OK… so I’m a sucker for the farming games… and especially the Farm Frenzy games. They are probably the time management games that challenges me the most. So when I saw that Farm Frenzy 3: American Pie came out… I HAD to play it. 

If you recall, I reviewed Farm Frenzy 3 when it came out and we interviewed the developer of the game from Alawar, so I have a special place in my heart for these series. I was very excited to see the return of Scarlett, the self described feisty character from the original Farm Frenzy game… that’s right feisty… from now on, I would like you all to refer to me as feisty… although I’m not sure it goes with my name nearly as well as Scarlett… Morgan might not be feisty… but let’s try to make it work. 

Anyhow… I get off topic so quickly… back to the game. So in this new game, Scarlett is done roaming the world and now she’s back home and her poor granny needs her help! The evil banks are going to foreclose on her property if we don’t help her make this farm profitable! Booooo… hisssssss. 

Most of the game play is pretty much the same as the original Farm Frenzy, the big difference they threw into this one is your ability to get robots! It is the age of technology after all, so why shouldn’t robots help us farm?

You can still get cats and dogs, sheep, oh and you start out with turkeys that lay eggs. Bears still come and try to eat them though. Which is so annoying because I can’t seem to click fast enough to get rid of them. My advice is spend some time repeating a level or two to get enough money to buy the better cage so you can get them under control faster and earlier in the game. You’ll save yourself a lot of frustration and animals. 

This game has 90 new levels or so it says… I haven’t gotten there yet, but I’m working on it between studying and playing soccer. Oh… did I tell you guys I signed up for intramural soccer this semester! I was spending a bit too much time indoors and it was starting to show in certain parts of my figure if you know what I mean…

Speaking of… it’s probably time I went outdoors for a bit to kick the ball around and run some laps. Still searching for this semester’s crush… think I might have found him, but more on that later.......
