A frenzy of entertainment
First off this game really
does contian 6 different farm frenzy games, from the original to the
newest. This means the concept and play for each and every game is the
exact same. However each game has its own unique buildings, animals,
locations, and goods to play with. So in that aspect it keeps all 6
games original. All 6 games are windows 7, vista, and XP compatible. For
the price $19 you're paying $3.16 for each game, not a bad deal and I
see the price has been slashed to $16 which is even better.
For
those of you who haven't played any of the farm frenzy games I'll go
into a brief description of the gameplay. For those of you who have,
feel free to skip this part.
The game essentially is a clicking game.
Click to buy animals, click to buy houses, upgrade, water, sell, create
goods, and buy goods. Pretty soon you will get cats to pick up the
"goods" the animals drop, which reduces the amount of clicking. After
you pick up the goods of the animal you can sell them or send them to
the appropriate house which will convert it into something else, wool
into thread, feathers into hats, etc. All your animals eat grass, so you
will have to water frequently, eventually you can upgrade your well to a
pump which waters automatically. Bears, lions, etc will pop onto your
screen from time to time and knock away your animals until you capture
them. If you leave them on the screen in the cage they will break out
and possibly destroy or downgrade your buildings as they run away. You
can upgrade everything, and sell most anything for the cash to upgrade.
Each level is different in its goals and starting supplies. You do not
keep the wealth from previous levels, you start with different things
each time. Sometimes its a ton of money and no animals, sometimes its
all animals and no cash, or a mix of both, or upgraded buildings or a
variety of other things.
Each game has +50 levels and every
level has its own unique goals. Not to mention the different
requirements to unlock the new levels. This game keeps you on your toes
if you want to meet the required time goals. No there is no time limit,
but there are bonuses for achieving the level goals in the predefined
amount of time. Those bonuses allow you make nessecary upgrades to
progress to the higher levels. Otherwise you might end up replaying a
couple levels until you gather enough points to make the upgrades. Would
this be a good game for kids(10 and under)? Yes, the graphics are
bright and friendly, there's no violence, and no time limit, if they can
operate a mouse then they can play this game. Although I'm sure this
game is intended for 10 and up, there are no 'skill' restrictions that
would prevent a 5 year old from completing the game (granted it might
take awhile). The games are quite fun and offer endless hours of
enjoyment. Plus with unlockables, time goals, and different strategies
required to achieve those goals the replayability is high.
This
game also comes with 3 bonus trial versions of upcoming farm frenzy
games that have an hour of playtime (each).
...:::Editors
Note:::...
Have yet to install on multiple computers. Plan on trying
that soon to make sure this game isn't loaded with any DRMs. Will post
an edit once I know.
CONS:
--Same genre and style for all 6
games, meaning the games will all play the same way, which will probably
get old fast.
--Basic game, no depth, no complexity (a good way to
pass time in other words)
--Narrow age range for enjoyment
>
Kids under 4 will like the sounds but probably lack the required means
to accomplish anything
> Teens are going to want something more
solid
> Adults (you will get bored fast)
> there are
expections to these rules obviously, but I'm speaking in general

Father of Farm Frenzy Fanatic
I ordered this for my 9-year
old son, who paid for it out of his own money. He loves the Farm Frenzy
series, and is playing one of them in the adjoining room as I type this,
several weeks after the purchase. The games work well for us on both
Vista and Windows XP operating systems. To me, each member of the series
is very similar to all of the others, but he gets a big kick out of the
new animals and other little nuances that make them different. This is a
pretty good deal for 6 games, for anyone that is a real fan of this
series. If you are not familiar with this series, do NOT buy any of them
thinking that you're going to learn anything about farming or get a
"farm sim" type of experience -- consider "John Deere North American
Farmer" or other similar games for that experience. The Farm Frenzy
games are a bit more like "Diner Dash" and related games -- fun and
challenging, but not particularly educational.
Farm Frenzy Harvest
This game is just ok there
are alot better ones out there ,that have instructions this one is kind
or boring and repetitive. It mite be ok for little kids but older one
not so much. I would not recommend this one at all.
