    Fae Farm is still an enjoyable farming sim where you can easily lose track of time, spending hours crafting items, petting animals, and spelunking in dungeons. The kid-friendly tone of the game makes it easy to recommend for all audiences, though the NPCs and thereby the town of Azoria lack depth. The main quests are more interested in having you explore dungeons than actual farming, and the game has more than several areas that need improvement. Still, despite its flaws, Fae Farm fits cozily among the rest of its farming brethren.

    When playing Fae Farm solo, it's a fun story in a cute world filled with magic and connections. There are a lot of moving parts, but I think they do a good job of easing into them. It does leave a little desire for more clothing and hair customizations and playing multiplayer means starting a whole new world. But overall, it was definitely worth playing and something I'll pick up again.

    While Fae Farm removes a lot of friction from the farming sim formula, it doesn’t add much to it.

    An all right farming simulator with charming graphics, fairly rounded mechanics, and a unique and interesting magical angle, but too slow to the selling point.

    Fae Farm gets off to a slow start, but you’ll see the game’s true value from Chapter Three onwards, when the crafting, romance, questing, and other optional content becomes so vast that you’ll never be able to keep up with it all. For fans of farming sims willing to get over the first hurdle, the actual gameplay is highly enjoyable, and the style and setting are utterly adorable. Just don’t expect a standout narrative, but do expect a few minor bugs.

    Fae Farm is an incredibly cute cosy game that makes for a great title to play alone, and while we didn’t have the opportunity to play multiplayer, we’d wager it’s even better when exploring with others, too. From farming to cooking, decorating, getting to know and build relationships with NPCs, and a beautiful art style that gives Fae Farm plenty of individuality, there’s likely something here for everyone. While it doesn’t reinvent the wheel and some activities like fishing and navigating dungeons can feel a bit of a slog, this is one cosy game that knows what it’s trying to achieve and something fans of the genre should absolutely check out.

    Never played a game this bad in my entire life. There is nearly nothing good in this game: gameplay is horribly slow, soft and boring, levelNever played a game this bad in my entire life. There is nearly nothing good in this game: gameplay is horribly slow, soft and boring, level design is inexistant, NPC interactions are bad, without any emotions and they even are recycled between them, art style is absolutely disgusting (even if it was on a mobile device) AND the game isn't even beautiful. Exploration is just a farm pretext, all activities are just point and click (shout out to fishing, the worst of all farm sims out there...)...

    The only good point is the music, composed by Cris Velasco. And it's not his best work by REALLY far.

    This game is the perfect example of how much Garena can destroy a video game studio, Phoenix Labs totally failed this game.
    For 40$, you can easily buy Stardew Valley, Forager AND the two "My Time At" games.    … Full Review »
