NZ Gamer: If a rural lifestyle sounds appealing – but not the early mornings, hard yakka and mountains of muck that goes with it - this little charmer might just hit the spot. The aim of the game is to run a successful farm by raising livestock, collecting the raw materials they drop (we’re talking eggs, wool and milk), processing the materials, manufacturing them into other products, and selling off your goods at the local market.
The Quality Index champions the best farming sims on iPhone, which doesn't include Zynga's Facebook goliath. We know.
Instead, Smurfs' Village makes a Beeline for top spot, putting controversies over IAP to one side to take the victory.
Ngmoco's We Rule manages to harvest a place on the rundown, too, proving that if you build it, they will come. Your friends, that is.
Although Alawar Entertainment has published a couple of titles on PSN, this, Farm Frenzy, is their first Mini. While you’ve probably never heard of them, they are a fairly big player in the casual game market. Indeed, in casual gaming, Farm Frenzy is a very large game franchise, with there being no fewer than 10 titles in the series, counting sequels and spin-offs, the latest being set in ancient Rome.
