FarmVille 3 – Farm Animals 4+

I love this game. It is so much fun and the community on here is great. Growing crops, crafting goods and helping others in your co-op is so much fun. Completing boat orders to earn things in a fun side quest and once you’re able to sky race it’s really fun. However, the animal quest are so difficult to move past levels. I’m in a level 43 farm and I am still stuck on level 8 on animal quest. It’s far to expensive and take too many elixirs to even level up your animal a little. The parts needed to upgrade your barn and silo capacity count toward your inventory and once you get up in levels it begins to take 12 each of everything to upgrade. So if you have a barn capacity of 160, you need to have 36 spaces available for just the barn upgrade parts, then you also have to factor in the silo parts. I don’t think they should count towards your inventory much in the same way elixirs don’t. The weather station seems to have some bugs too… I’ll activate it to grow my crops faster and it doesn’t work, same thing with trying to get goods or other things to speed up. It’s especially frustrating when trying to complete boat orders or do the sky race. Having side events during sky race and filling board orders and boat orders can be kinda overwhelming with trying to complete everything. It feels like too much going on at once. I love this game though. Play it everyday and always enjoy accomplishing tasks.

The graphics, music and gameplay are engaging. The animals are cute (the different breeds are clever) and I like the idea of the co-op, competition with others but also a little community to help one another. My major complaint about the game is the exotic animals. They do not add anything to the farm feel. The challenges are a game of luck and too difficult for me to progress. So currently, with a farm at level 29, I'm stuck at 8 with no weather booster or water tower unlocked. Very frustrating. Also, the exotics only take up space, and if you want to add better animals, you have to sacrifice useable land to build their habitats. Maybe I approach my “farm” from a more aesthetic or ecological standpoint, but I’m not clear-cutting everything to set up CAFO’s. When I explore other members farm’s, that’s pretty much all I see. Ditch the exotics and find another way to incorporate the items you win by playing- Now I only use those missions for avocados/pineapples/mangos/resin, since it takes too much “energy” to play a guessing game in my order to advance in exotic levels. But like I said, the rest of the game is very cute. PS Maybe adjust the “make” times for some of the items. Allow some farm animals to be sold before breeding.

I like the game a lot, it’s really good and there is a lot to do and there are always events which is nice.
My issues are exotic animals and decorating the farm.
There needs to be a better way to edit and move items. Like the fences, you have to move each piece one at a time and if you have 100 pieces of fence, your clicking and holding to the drag and drop 100 pieces. You can’t zoom out very farm so you only see a little bit of the farm and have to wait for the screen to move while your trying to drag and drop each piece. Exotic animals are dumb, the houses for them take up a lot of space and they don’t do anything for the farm other than help get a couple items needed to make other things. It takes a lot to lvl them. It’s ridiculous how much gold has to be spend to lvl them just a tiny bit. It needs adjusted and made easier to lvl the animals for exotic quests. There are tons of lvls for exotic missions and I’m stuck on lvl 11. I have probably spend close to 100k gold just trying to lvl a couple of exotic animals. Evolving them is ridiculous too. Even more gold you have to spend to lvl them. Gold is hard enough to save in the game as everything costs so much. Just to build a leather shop is 20k. You won’t be able to get very far in this game unless you can spend real money on diamonds to turn into gold and use on other things. I’ve gotten to lvl 46 and have had to spend plenty of real cash to get to that lvl.
