A farmin’ good time

In the short time since Farmville has been on Facebook, it has gained a player-base of millions from all over the world. It is a very simple game concept: you build and design your farm. Some people have been instantly hooked on Farmville, while others have snubbed their nose at the idea of it, only to find themselves amongst its many players after just a little time navigating their way through the game and discovering how truly fun it can be! And Farmville is not just a game for younger players: a huge portion of people who play it are adults. Real-world simualtion games have no age limit, and the farms sprouting up all over the place are proof of this.

This beginners guide to the Market in Farmville will help you to understand how the Market works, what you buy as a new farmer, and how many coins and experience your crops and animals will earn you.

The Market

As you will notice upon looking through the many things you can purchase at the Market, most of them are locked and you won’t have access to them until you reach the necessary level for each one. When you start off in the game you will have a small amount of coins available to use for purchase of crops. Because of this, the game is pretty slow-moving at first, but within a few days of playing you will start to be able to buy more.
