Farm Frenzy Forever
What's It About?
FARM FRENZY FOREVER is a compilation of 10 different Farm Frenzy games, including titles like Farm Frenzy Madagascar, Farm Frenzy Ice Age, and Farm Frenzy Gone Fishing. Each one of these games is functionally identical but has a different setting -- one is set in the arctic, another in the jungle, etc. -- and vary slightly in which farm animals are presented. Although it is advertised as containing 10 different games, they are all fairly small in scope, making this compilation seem more like one game with 10 different levels.
Is It Any Good?
The games included in Farm Frenzy Forever are competent, standard time management games. However, there is little to differentiate them from the many other titles in the "time management" genre. Players end up repeating the same steps over and over again, making it seem like more of a grind than a game. There are some mini-games to mix up the experience a little, but as far as the central gameplay mechanic goes, there are several better titles in this genre.
