We Farm Will Be Available Tomorrow Worldwide - Hands On Preview Today

July 28, 2010

There's no doubt We Rule is a quality game, and has been a success in the App Store. It only made sense for NewToy and and Ngmoco to make a sequel this time in the form of We Farm. The game is similar to We Rule with a greater focus on farming as the name implies. In We Farm, you grow crops, raise animals, and add farm related businesses while connecting with friends. Rather than having a kingdom theme for everything there is a farming theme. We Rule is similar to Farmville, but We Farm is a direct head to head competitor, and fires a shot across the bow. Rather than porting a computer game, We Farm has been designed exclusively for the iPhone and iPad. If you've played We Rule then you're prepared to play We Farm and experience the nuances. We Farm will be available for free download tomorrow July 29th. As soon as you start the game you're introduced to the tutorial which will get you up to level six by the time you complete it which takes only about five minutes. Then your free to farm however you like earning xp and gold as you grow crops and raise animals. As you level up you unlock new buildings like coops, pastures, pens, dairies, fruit stands, silos, tractors, and more. There are tons of decorative items and trees to place on your farm as you continually level up to expand your farm. The game is geared around social connectivity with the same friend set up as We Rule, and the same type of business transactions. You get to accept orders and place orders at your friend's shops with the only real difference the type of businesses to place orders at. The biggest addition is the raising of animals which act as businesses for others, but act similarly to crops for yourself. The animals mature in a certain period of time, and then they can be sent to fair to earn different colored ribbons. There are all types of animals all earning different amounts of gold and xp, and requiring different times to mature. Now you can concentrate on crops and animals with the push notification system same as We Rule. The game is free, but there is a consumable in-app purchase again this time called 'gro' rather than mojo. The increments and prices of 'gro' are very similar to those of mojo in We Rule. The game plays very similarly to We Rule which is a good thing because that's a quality game. It's also a bad thing with no innovation giving you practically the same game engine with a different theme. Will you be downloading the game tomorrow? Enjoy the official trailer below:
