Farmagia

"Plenty is thrown at the wall, and just enough of it sticks, but it&s;s hard to get over the idea of plucking monsters out of the ground."

"Ultimately, for having so many mechanics, all of them ended up feeling half-baked. Farmagia in a lot of ways feels like a first draft, and I&s;d love to see these mechanics pared down and refined in a future game. Farmagia …"

"Farmagia offers a mix of monster creation, farming, and action RPG elements that doesn’t always work in perfect harmony but is sure to find its audience."

"Farmagia is an excellent story of rebellion that fails to reach its potential thanks to mediocre mechanics and repetitive combat."

"Farmagia is a game with Hiro Mashima&s;s face, literally. But not just because of its design, I feel it&s;s a game that has a lot of his essence. It&s;s a game with great characters, who are very well-developed and layered, …"

"Despite its flaws, Farmagia offers a curious and enjoyable mix of farming and creature breeding. Although the farming mechanics are not as deep and are far from being as addictive as those offered by great games of the genre, the …"

"Farmagia has fun and flashy combat, but its lack of depth and threadbare farming ultimately make it hard to recommend."

"Farmagia is a cute dungeon crawler that has you control dozens of harvested battle buddies at once. Although it may look like there&s;s a lot going on, it gets repetitive quickly and it frankly didn&s;t do enough to keep me …"

"I must say, readers, that I enjoyed my time with Farmagia. However, I was left with that permanent feeling that the title oversimplified things that, in fact, could be explored in more depth."

"Under more favorable circumstances, Farmagia could have been a great release. Its anime-style proposal is enjoyable, as are the basic mechanics of fighting, farming, and monster customization. It&s;s a shame that its universe isn&s;t well-presented enough, and there&s;s no depth …"

"Although I genuinely applaud its attempts to try something new, Farmagia doesn&s;t quite stick the landing for me. In fact, beyond the initial novelty of the mechanics, both the farming and the combat components end up feeling intensely repetitive with …"

"Farmagia is a unique cross between a farming simulator and monster battling. The art and world are fun to be in and explore, though I wish you could explore it more and less of the mazes."

"Farmagia could have benefited if they made it a turn-based RPG or slowed down the speed of what’s going on. Having nearly 100 monsters plus the monsters you face going at the speed of The Wonderful 101‘s gameplay might not …"

"Farmagia’s presentation, driven by Hiro Mashima’s designs, does wonders for a game that blends so many gameplay elements together that they water down what has the makings of a unique RPG."

"Farmagia has so much going for it: a unique farming-action RPG combination and Hiro Mashima’s captivating art, but it doesn’t quite harness these strengths, ending up as a frustratingly mixed experience. It has all the ingredients for a great farming …"
