La Fattoria degli Animali

Love the game but your bug fixes didn’t fix any of the problems that it claims too! Which is too bad because it’s a good game!

with this game you will find out what type it leader you are, period! for the creators that get to read this, infinite gratitude for the creativity in this marvelous adventurous game. it’s complex and new for my 24 yr old brain. also you have my loyalty as a player and i’m glad my intuition told me to purchase this game💜💜💜

After playing the game I realized that it wasn’t as I expected, a lot actions you make give a big impact and a lot of detail. The game seems to hard tho as once in a while someone dies or has to get chased out, and the game gets very repetitive with bringing in the hay and what to do with wealth. Because of this repeat it gets very boring and can’t keep playing. But this game is still very good and much like the book and film. (The narration honestly makes the game depressing in my opinion)

I really appreciate the premise of this game. It’s a faithful adaptation of the book where you can make some big changes. The art is fantastic. Unfortunately, the underlying management sim gets a bit repetitive. I wish I could play the story without having to micromanage bringing in the hay year after year. Relatedly, the game is so difficult that it feels like everyone dies every time despite my best efforts, leading to more repetition. Well worth checking out, but I’m tired of it now.

I've been known to play interactive fiction games from time to time, which is what I expected when downloading this game. In most interactive fiction games, choice is little more than an illusion, but in this game, even mundane choices can impact the direction of the game. The addition of the journal was a stroke of genius. Without it, I would probably have set the game aside after my first completion. Since it's based off of an existing story, I had assumed that there would be little deviation from the plot, not so. There more than a few different endings, and the journal lists what has to happen to trigger this ending or that achievement, though it does not tell you how to get there, which isn't always obvious. The entire story is narrated, and the voice actor is perfect. Usually I mute games with excessive spoken dialogue, but I find that it adds to the overall enjoyability of this game.

Won’t even load the first time. Save your money.

I like that the game is inviting a new generation into understand the dangers of socialism, but the game itself feels only half finished. The “game” aspects aren’t intuitive and not properly explained. Maybe it was rushed out? I think $2.99 or even $1.99 would be more appropriate for iOS. It’s a cool way to experience a book I haven’t read in many years, but it just doesn’t seem polished enough for $6.99
