Farm Punks

Let me start off by saying that this game is amazing. It’s incredibly fun and the cartoonish art style really captures the comedic nature of the game (doesn’t hurt that there’s a dog that digs up items for you, ether.) the only reason that this review is FOUR stars instead of five is that there’s this glitch where I come back from rolling my fruit down the hill and when I get back from the rankings screen, the screen goes completely black. The game is still running, you can hear the music and everything, but the screen is black so you can’t see what you’re doing. You can still tap, and it works, you just can’t see. This game is really fun but it’s just unplayable with the bug I got going on. I don’t know if something’s wrong with the game or my phone (iPhone SE 2022), but hopefully you guys at the development team can fix it. Thanks in advance.

This game is an amazingly fun and free option on the App Store. It is beautifully stylized, easy to understand, and very fun to play on and offline. Each time you discover a new fruit you get a little boost of excitement, as I would for childhood games like Pokémon. In the future, to keep people playing, I would like to see a place to view leaderboards on the orchard screen, and maybe also people’s best scores and distances with each fruit. More importantly, there should be more game modes or derivatives of the current game to make things fresh and interesting. Maybe a time trials mode, complete with “ghosts” such as the Mario Kart franchise? Or better yet, an online multiplayer race to the finish??? Anyway, fun game so far, and I will be glad to stick around for upcoming features.

Even though I was a bit annoyed that this game was taking so long, when it finally came out, I immediately fell in love. The graphics are really smooth and the cartoony aesthetic fits the games style really well. The gameplay is addicting (in a good way) and the controls are so simple yet work so well. The game allows for hours of entertainment, and the waits for different fruits aren’t that long. The only thing this game needs is more content. Another mount, or maybe a new place on the island. Also, giving the different types of fruits different attributes (like being bouncier or being able to jump faster) would add more variety to the game. I know that this is already in the game a bit, but expanding on that would be great. Nevertheless, I think I’ve found my new favorite game!
