Farm Frenzy: Refreshed

es macht echt spaß

First 50 levels I really enjoyed this game. Both the mechanics of building your farm instead of map as in 1 and 2 parts, the seasons thing, breaking factories for the sake of four stars and graphics. It was a new breath for the franchise. I am a fan of old games, don't get me wrong. However, this game was a new experience for me. Now about the downsides. It's unbalanced and raw as heck. In previous game everything was measured that you don't need to beat later games to gain enough currency to go further. Only experience. I bet the first and the second Farm Frenzy with gold for all levels. I didn't need to go at least past a level with one star to get access to the equipment to then past this level with all stars. Only experience. Come on, spend 6 minutes because the game didn't make it clear that I needed to make an upgrade of a specific factory to pass the level for even two stars and stay for much more time just to beat this level? Before 50th levels the "recommended" sign was at a right time, and after that both the challenges and warnings stopped working as they should as if creators just became lazy. Speaking of laziness. Object boxes for animals are too small, so we have cows mushing into each other. The prompts mechanic is also awful. It just blocks the screen unless you wait for it to play. Once I tried to be faster and do one of the tasks in the beginning. After that the game crashed. It didn't closed, I had to play without words. All of them disappeared from buttons, instructions, prompts, etc. Then we have problem with sound. When more than three sounds play (ex: bear noises, animal noises and game music), and then we go to the transport menu - we have a bass boosted effect. Almost always. Grabbing products and upgrading equipment is too unfair. You've got a cat and 30 products? Most likely you will lose 5-10 products. In 1 and 2 games you didn't need this much and you always could rely on your cats. Here even with 3 cats in the autumn you will still lose products. In this part cats only make it a bit easier, but your chances are still low when you need to prepare many difficult dishes. Prepare to buy products each 20 seconds, I guess. The achievements are boring. In 1 and 2 games they were far more challenging. Not simply upgrading, not catching bears and catching food in the air, but collecting all types of products, spending more than 20 minutes in a game, not losing animals. That's what made Farm Frenzy fun even after achieving all levels. Not this garbage achievements, that are a part of game journey. In conclusion, this game isn't worth spending your time on. Play 1 and 2 Farm Frenzy instead, or different games.
