Country Friends 9+

Long review ahead - Can be summarised to ‘Has cute graphics. Simple game play. Only down side is lack of decorative options.’

Honestly, this is surprisingly mind numbingly addicting. It’s something that you can mindlessly do whilst watching Netflix - so pretty fitting if you ask me.

The community farm aspect is pretty great. I really like the little detail with the street light when someone is online - it’s a really nice touch without it being in your face that someone is there as well. I also like how you can indicate that you’re working on that box already. Honestly, everything has been pretty intuitive and simple. I also love how we get notified when crops / products are ready to be collected so don’t have to keep jumping between the farms.

But with that being said, it’s simplicity is definitely a key feature here so if you want to really customise your farm your options are quite limited (ie, you can’t move your farm house / silo but you get use to it). I would love to be able to rotate decorations though, specifically the gazebo and wooden bench, just a 90 degree turn would do. Larger pond options would also be great. And maybe if a character or an animal interacts with the swing set or the horse when pressed - similar to the pets, their default is being a sleep but when prompted they do something ?

Other than that, really simple game. Something to easily pass the time with. Has so much potential- hopefully more updates will be released. 4.5 stars. I’ll add the extra 0.5 when I can rotate things ha

The game started out great, but ever since I connected to the game from my uni wifi it started glitching out and all my crops in the community farm disappeared whenever I reloaded the game. So I would plant crops and then it would disappear because I had plants growing there already but it was invisible and it wouldn’t give me the plants back that the game planted on top of the old crops. Also I paid to extend my community farm twice and it deleted it and now I only have one row again and it didn’t give me my coins back.

Edit; yet another glitch where it’s taking 4hours for my raspberry yogurt when it’s meant to take 15 mins and 1 hour for the burger that’s meant to take 10 mins

It’s a good game however it’s starting to glitch I harvest my crops and then they don’t show up and I have to replant it and it still doesn’t show up. Also I need coins to buy the next thing but the only way to get coins is by selling things and now it’s only giving me options to sell thing which I don’t have the machine to make the things. A little disappointed as I was really enjoying this game.
