The value story
It has never been cheaper than $1.79. That was June 2026. Its cuts run 90 percent off as a rule. There have been 86 in the 8 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart.
On value it sits in the top 43 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre. Farm Manager 2021 ($3.79, scores 55) outscores it, and so does Autonauts ($19.99, scores 79). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
1 of the 543 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 45 percent of the 193 reviews written there were positive, against 72 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it.
46.8 hours to finish it, 284 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 6.1 times the campaign.

What players say
[*]Buy it on sale, or try Farm Manager 2021 instead (haven't tried it yet but at least the UI design looks way better than this one) [*]All achievements can be unlocked without DLC, but they're really grindy [*]Motion sickness friendly [*]Easy to pick up [*]many unfixed bugs I spend a lot of time on it but I don't really enjoy it. Many bugs are still messing up the gaming experience, the price isn't balanced across...
The game has its limitations, the newer ones have many more features, it's fun but I recommend buying the recently released one.
The game has been abandoned. If you get it for free, you can play it once, then it gets boring. Not much has changed since 2019.
