There is also a challenge mode, which allows you to visit other countries (maps) and complete something specific like growing and harvesting grapes or dealing with a season of drought. Your obvious choice is the campaign mode, which allows you to have somewhat of a story and the ability to freely do as you wish after a while. There are multiple modes you can choose from at the start of the game. Nothing original but it gives the game at least something to empathize with. Most simulation titles like this have you taking on the responsibility left from someone else. Is this a new story for a simulation genre like this? No. You are the only one willing to do it and you take on the responsibility of the debt as well. When your grandfather passes away, he leaves the farm to whoever is willing to maintain it but also leaves a ton of debt. No one in your family wanted to help with the farm because they had become ‘urbanized’. He got sick and ended up not being able to maintain the farm the way he used to. It was unfortunate that I had to go back to each field to fix some mistakes from the workers (damn, it feels like real life) but this was definitely a much-needed mechanic for the game. All you have to do is prep a field with the proper machinery and then hire a worker to do the actual work while you go around doing your other chores. Guess what? There is and I am so happy I took that absence from the game. I was already tired of ploughing, sowing and irrigating the fields myself that I really didn’t think there was an easier option. This is the point when I walked away for a bit because I didn’t put much thought into the workers. I am guessing it is meant to be true to what the real experience is but I was really infuriated when I had to pull up my equipment every straight line I ploughed, turn my tractor around, put the machinery back down and do another run (sometimes even missing small sections of the field because I wasn’t straight enough).Īfter getting through those long sessions of ploughing, sowing and irrigating, I was told I could hire workers to make life easier. This task alone took well over 20-25 minutes of my time and with the controls it was excruciating to play. The hardest part was when I actually had to start ploughing the fields. Driving my first tractor, harvesting my first field, selling the items to a vendor, getting money and helping another farmer all felt like a true experience and it was engaging because it was quick snippets of quests. Funny enough I actually really enjoyed the first hour of gameplay.
#Pure farming. can wheat grow simulator
Pure Farming 2018 is a farming simulator developed by Ice Flames and published by Techland Games. This is the moment I then appreciated what Pure Farming 2018 had to offer. I had to enter a zone I had never entered before. What I forgot was that this game was a simulation of farming and not something that was meant to be quick or instantly engaging. I even cursed at the controls quite a few times. The thinking actually led me to liking this game a lot more. I walked away from this game after 4 hours and started to think about it. Let me stop you there before you leave the review entirely. After my initial 4 hours of play in Pure Farming 2018 for the PlayStation 4 I came away a bit disappointed. I also remember playing on a rope swing in the barn. What I do remember is having crazy amounts of grass to cut and watching the hay rolls get bundled up before being shipped off for someone who could use them. No I didn’t raise pigs, chickens or cows and no I didn’t work the gruelling hours out in the fields I was too young for that. As someone who was born and raised in the country I definitely know a thing or two about living on a farm.
