FarmVille is a simulation type of game that is made popular at Facebook. All you have to do is to take care of your growing farm by plowing your lots, planting seeds; harvesting your crops, tending to your animals and building you farm with buildings, trees and even lakes.

Due to its popularity, FarmVille has now a lot of competitors which could be more fun or not. I tried looking on the list of available game that has similar game play as FarmVille which is farming of course. I was surprised to see so many of which some were even made before it while some are new for the players to try.

To start of, let’s not leave the world of Facebook first. If Zynga made FarmVille on Facebook then you might also be familiar with Country Story. It’s also a farm thing, only it was developed by Playfish which is also another developer of games. And comparing it to FarmVille, the graphics looks cuter than FarmVille although it’s not that easy to advance on the next levels.

Some other popular games would be Farm Town, Barn Buddy and Sunshine Ranch since I usually see them being played by some other people. But when I tried searching for more, I was surprised to see a lot more like Island Paradise, (Lil) Farm Life, Happy Farm, Country Life, Farm Pals, Happy Harvest and Karma Farm.

For gamers who are not limited only to PC gaming then you might have heard of Harvest Moon. I really do enjoy playing this game since there are so many things that a player must do, it has quests and you could even have your own family as well. And since there is much room for the game map, you are not limited to the spaces assigned to you.

Animal Crossing is a bit similar to Harvest Moon as well and is available at Nintendo Wii. and if you happen to have a great set of pc then you can download Yahoo’s Virtual Villagers. Here you will be able to build your own village, even produce scientists and make families as well.

Hungry for more, well my list doesn’t end here. While some games has to be played online, some has to be downloaded. Games titles like My Wonderful Farm, Vegetable Garden, Farm Frenzy, Urban Garden, Virtual Farm, Farm Mania, Money Tree, The Farmer and Plantasia are some others that you can find so maybe you can try them as well, most of them re quite nice though yet simple.

So if you wanted to try more games like FarmVille then you better start now because I think a lot would still come out with better features and more fun to play. So go play all of them if you can and find your favorite.
