Farm for your Life
tl;dr
Cute farming/zombie survival game combined with running a restaurant.
Achievements are doable, but require some patience.
Story
As you might have alreadey expected an unkown virus has turned people to zombies. In order to survive you have to plant vegetables, cook and serve your customers in your restaurant. At a later time you will be able to get some NPC helpers and even try to search for a cure.
Gameplay
The controls feel right. It is not too complicated and you don’t need to rush too much. If you want to unlock all the achievements, you will need to do some mini games with perfect score. For some people it might feel annoying, but I am not very skillful and I still have done it. Therefore I think it is not that hard.

A fun little casual game.
The zombies aren’t too scary, the animals and toons are cute, the gameplay is easy to learn.
The storyline provides what is being advertised. 5-6 hours of story-related gameplay. After that, one can always continue in “freeplay” mode.
Replay value seems limited, as is the content. No procedurally generated world, which makes replays seem all alike.
A few bugs here an there, nothing major though:
[olist]
- Customers sitting on each others' laps, dishes occasionally getting stuck and being hard to remove. Not a big deal, most of these are self-clearing when the restaurant runs out of customers during nights. Saving and re-loading the game cleared all these issues too.

th game is great and i have enjoyed playing it but my only issue with the game is that there is no multiplayer.
i know the dev said in early 2020 that there would be multiplayer sometime 2020, but it is almost the end of 2021 and i still think that they should add multiplayer.

Very relaxing game and a good survival game to play alone

Green Project
Fun game, with a lot of potentual.
The alone feel is nice, the humor, while terrible, is so bad it’s hillarious.
the progression feels a little arbitrary, with zones “locked off” by that goo stuff, that apparently is some toxic muschroom stuff? Yet you eat other mushrooms?
Honestly, it makes more sense if it was leftover pollution from humans, and the “spore” increase you get from eating uncoocked food, or existing should be toxins or such.
Would be more of a statement to the earth being uninhabital cause of our pollution, rather then some fungus.

Lonefarm
You play as Andy, a boy from the city who has always wanted to live in a remote place and enjoy solitude and closeness to nature. Now with some money saved and a bank loan you decide to buy a small cabin on an island in the South Pacific. You will be able to meet the people of this island, their customs and you will look for an occupation.
If you could just… close your eyes for a moment, breathe and open them again to realize that you’re in a different place… A place where the air is fresh and the sky is blue, a serene getaway free of the complexities of day-to-day social interaction, where your responsibilities are as simple as “eat”, “water the crops”, “go for a drive”. More than anything, a place that you can call your own.
This is Lonefarm.
In this fully immersive escape from anxiety, you take control of a farm on a small island in the middle of the South Pacific. Tend to your crops, feed your stock, prepare your meals, decorate the farm, or take a peaceful ride on your vintage Van Wagon through the seaside highway to explore the natural paradise surrounding your farm! Take advantage of the trip to transport the vegetables and sell them to the townspeople. Lonefarm is truly yours, so take it all in at your own pace.

Mr. Prepper: Prologue
The Meta:
This is a free prologue, as a feature-limited demo of the full game which expands upon the content that was made available in the demo from July. You have absolutely no reason not to try this.
I’ve played rather extensively through the beta testing, and can attest that the devs are incredibly responsive to the player community, both for bug fixing and implementing player-suggested improvements or modifications, and I fully expect that behavior to apply to the full game.
The game includes no microtransactions.

Originally, I thought the prologue would end in 30 days at most, but later I found out that I was still too young and naive. On the first day of the second month, I angrily ate all my food. I have many cans which used all the money I made to buy, and with lots of blueberry milkshakes and carrot soup. It’s ridiculous that I didn’t have diarrhea after eating it all! Ok, I have to quit the game in dismay!
Talk about the advantages and shortcomings of this game. This game is still very creative, painting style is good, it is said that the official version has more content. In terms of content, the game is undoubtedly a success. But the game also has some shortcomings:

Elixir of Life
I like the game, parts are a bit tedious though. It’s nice to able to either have the battle automatically go, or you get to choose who attacks what. Let’s just say the grind is real in this game. Your armour constantly will break so you have to make another set or buy from the shop. Finding some ingredients/ parts for recipes is a bit hard at least for me. For fishing you need to get leaves and sticks, why are leaves so hard to find.

Fun , but you should add more level and rewards for starter quest , it’s hard especially with food , you should make it easier to farm food . i fell like giving up playing already because my character is always hungry so i can’t sleep to get energy for farming

Mr. Prepper
I’ll be honest and say that I wasn’t sure if I liked it the first few hours but boy did I change my mind. I was expecting to actually have to survive in the shelter I created and see the aftermath of the wasteland left after the world goes to hell and I was puzzled as to why this sort of game play wasn’t added in but it’s still a fantastic base building , survival game and I hope they’ll add DLC in the future, where you’ll actually be able to survive in the bunker or even get to experience what happens after landing the rocket .

Mr. Prepper. A survival base building game that’s not about survival and not about base building but purely story-driven.
TL;DR: If you can get it cheap (10 USD/EUR), give it a shot. But if you want a survival challenge or expect another game like This War Of Mine, STAY AWAY. It has SO much unused potential. It could be so much more.
PROS:
-
Interesting story. Mr. Prepper is not your average guy.
-
The typical “just one more day” game design that sucks you in.
-
3 (4) NPCs you interact with that are all kinda likable.

You get what you pay for BUT its not a bad start to a game. All the mechanics work as intended which is rare for a game so early in development. If the developer continues to update I believe more people will find this game.
