Oh I very well may have to get back to this!  I keep starting a new farm but always end up giving up, not because I found the game boring but because I felt I kept making mistakes along the way, and wasn't earning enough money from what I was doing.

I need to restart my farm when I have time it seems. Is this going to be cross platform, or no? ( I doubt it, but I wanted to ask)

There's a pretty basic and solid gameplay for success based on certain plants that really take a lot of the worry away. 

 

In Spring save as much money, forage everything, plant some basic stuff until the egg festival and blow all of your money on Strawberry seeds. 

• Strawberry – 500 gold profit per crop // Obtained during Egg Festival (Spring 13th)

Save up all of your profits, invest in the next watering can and Blueberries are your summer crop. 

• Blueberry – 880 gold profit per crop // Purchased at Pierre’s General Store

Fall is a little different, you buy a rare seed/ obtain a rare seed and save it until you can get the "seed maker" then you are just mass producing these seeds.  The main crop to plant however is going to be Cranberry. 

• Rare Seed – 2000 profit per crop // Purchased at Gypsy Wagon
  Cranberry – 1101 profit per crop // Purchased at Pierre’s General Store

Winter is about mining and if you can get the greenhouse in year one, which is hard to do you go rare seed nuts inside of it.

Yep, will update mine too. Been looking out for this for a while. I'm pretty Sam was looking out for this too!

I hope this can happen at some point too

Doubtful.

Damned Egg hunt, I always lose. I wish you could attack the little kids participating

So we brought a friend into the MP beta and said "okay here's the egg hunt, you don't really win it your first time". The fucking guy beat me, two other people and all of the devil children. I was heated.

Kick him in the kidneys for me.

 

He clearly has a cheat or something

Giving this thread a nudge as I have been playing this over the Christmas break with my wife. She love's games like this and generally the only sort she will play but I have been enjoying using it to wind down after hectic day's with the kids!

 

The multiplayer works well albeit there seem's to be a glitch in the mines for player 1 where it all freezes up and you have to leave the mine and re-enter which can be a bit rubbish!

 

I just got our first bit of Irridium which was a pain the first time, I imagine next time will be a bit easier as I have a few Crystalarium's producing Jade for staircases now! We completed the Community Centre, now I am just getting the boat done to head off to Ginger Island and then converting the old Jo-Jo mart which I believe become's a Cinema?

 

Anyway yeah this game is as great as ever.

 

Another note is that it also exceed 41 million purchases last year I believe which is a phenmonal achievement considering where it started!

I've had it for ages and it seems the perfect game for the SteamDeck but never got around to it. Should really give it a proper go 🙂

It is ideal for the steamdeck, we play on a big screen generally but it's quite a relaxing game. You can potter about and not do much. We are contemplating going for the plat trophy but there is a mini game in there which is meant to be quite difficult. I probably need to do that when I am on it on my own maybe.
