I want to stop but I must harvest my strasberries...
Review with images
17/02/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages Passes time, small sense of achievement in an otherwise futile existence, friend envy
Disadvantages Can be costly if you're a moron

~~*~~*~~ Farmville ~~*~~*~~ I have to admit, I have a problem…well, many to be fair but one of them is Farmville and before you continue to read on, heed this warning – you may become compelled to delay appointments, stay up late on a school night and dare I say it, break the speed limit in order to get home to harvest your raspberries. Intrigued? Then you’re obviously as dull as I am, so read on sucker… ~~*~~ Facebook ~~*~~ Facebook is a phenomenon. My mother purely joined to play Farmville and now she’s hooked on other things too. If you’ve never encountered Facebook, don’t start – hours of ... more

You Farm for Fun, Zynga Makes the Profit 06/02/2010

User doesn't recommend the product

Advantages Entertaining, addictive, initially free
Disadvantages Buggy, addictive, the need to spend real money to properly progress

Hi. I'm Matty* and I'm a recovering Farmville addict. I'd avoided the game for months, despite seeing constant Facebook updates informing me how my friends and family were doing. Finally, after my brother, sister-in-law and daughter all begged me to join, I relented. Soon, I was well and truly addicted. I spent several hours a day dutifully ploughing, planting and harvesting my crops. In addition, another hour or so would go to harvesting fruit from my trees, milk from my cows, wool from my sheep, fur from my cats (don't ask), eggs from my chickens and various other products from various ... more

Blocking - A cure to addiction 26/04/2010

User doesn't recommend the product

Advantages Entertaining, fun, New attributes
Disadvantages addictive, Buggy

Facebook is one of those sites which I visit almost daily. Publishing stupid results of applications and pictures, commenting on them, knowing what’s happening with my friends and all that stuff has become part of my daily routine. But I did not know how and when I became addicted to one of that Facebook Application- Farmville. So how it started? From many days I was receiving requests from my friends to become neighbor in Farmville in which one can grow fruits and vegetables on their own farm. Daily Farmville seemed to take up a lot of space and posts on my facebook. As I was not having ... more

Always wanted To Be A Farmer?! 07/04/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages Easy and Silly Fun
Disadvantages Runs Slowly At Times

Facebook in itself is something I appreciate and visit almost daily, just to have a nose and see what my friends are up to. However, the new reason for my growing facebook addiction is applications. These are free games that are run through the website and link to your facebook profile. The most popular of which is Farmville. I joined Farmville about 6 months ago, when a few friends kept inviting me to be their neighbours. I eventually gave in and am now fully immersed in my little Farmville world and have learnt the joys of applications. How to get started ------------------------- The game ... more

Life On The Farm 03/02/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages passes the boring days
Disadvantages annoying music

Facebook, a website that has half of the nation addicted but really I do wonder why half of us even log on. It is a good way to keep up with old friends who may live far away but the website keeps offering us more and more. I am sure for most of you who have an account you will probably get notifications and requests for the likes of Fishville and Cafe World but if there's one you should take a look at it is Farmville. I am not one for online gaming but with people I know having stories pop up about their farm; I decided to give it a go and see what all the fuss was about. WHAT IS IT? The ... more

Farming Indoors 14/02/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages good to play when you want to switch off
Disadvantages addictive

It took me a long time to jump onto the “Face book wagon”, but once I allowed myself to enter the site where I would waste hours of my time, I was hooked, and I haven’t worked out a way to extract myself from it. Farmville is one of the many games available to play on Face book. There are many and you will be spoilt for choice if you are a Face book regular. ** What is it? ** Farmville essentially lets you build up your own farm from a plot of land given to you by the creators. It’s a free game, but if you are going to start playing it them be aware that the creators of the game can access ... more

Very addicting, very annoying...FarmVille! 17/10/2010

User doesn't recommend the product

Advantages boredom killer
Disadvantages very annoying

The Farmville game simulates farm life, in the aspect that you have to plant, grow and then harvest your crops, as well as raise livestock. Surprisingly, one of Facebooks most popular games is still in beta (or testing) phase. Farmville the quite elaborate RTC (real- time computing), game developed by Zynga is available as an application for one of the worlds most popular social networking sites, Facebook. Since Zynga, the game's maker, considers Farmville to be in its beta phase the game's players are considered to be testers. All 82+ million of them! There has been a "scare" back in February ... more

A Facebook App I Used to enjoy! 23/10/2012

Advantages Plenty of tasks and achievements to complete
Disadvantages too many glitches and too time consuming

Farmville is one of many facebook games I have played over the years since I joined the site. I find myself coming back to it from time to time but soon getting sick of it again. To start to play is simple if you already have a Facebook account, you can search for the game in the box at the top of the game and click to allow Farmville access to your page which allows the application to publish your requests to your walls and give you a list of people on your friends lists who play so you can add them as neighbours. When the game starts you are presented with a farm, it is your job to place ... more

happy farmers 04/06/2012

User recommends the product

Advantages fun, varied, friendly game, suitable for all ages
Disadvantages can get a bit addictive

I'd heard about Farmville before I joined facebook. Some of my friends used it and said they really enjoyed it. So after joining FB I decided to see what Farmville was all about. Your avatar farmer can be customised by choosing a gender, changing the facial features and choosing clothes. You start off with 6 plots of land, some coins and 5 FV dollars. You have to plough these plots, plant seeds then harvest. You choose seeds from the market. Each has varying levels of cost, what they sell for, XP (Experience Points) and the length of time needed to grow. There are lots of different things to ... more

Cheerful and colourful farm fun! 29/04/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages free, fun, nice natured
Disadvantages sometimes runs slowly

Farmville is a farmyard simulation game produced by Zynga which runs as a facebook application. Although they have their own website at www.farmville.com, I can't work out how to login without being a facebook member - so I guess you have to be one to play. Having been invited by numerous friends and gifted everything from a pomigranite tree through to a horse, I finally decided to check it out and see what it was about. You start off with a plot of land, which you can plough and grow plants in and if like me you've got rather generous friends, you'll find you've probably been given quite a ... more
