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 a lot going on, it gets repetitive quickly and it frankly didn't do enough to keep me interested. đŸș

Farmagia offers a fun and solid experience for fans of the fantasy genre. With great art and entertaining dialogue, this game is the perfect fit for those longing for a magical adventure. Although it is not necessarily a great farming game, Farmagia works well as a bridge for players who might want to try a more action-oriented adventure. On the other hand, seasoned players of action RPG games might feel frustrated because of how simple combat is in Farmagia. Still, we believe the game's positive aspects make Farmagia a great example that, when done correctly, even the simple feels fantastic.

Farmagia is a very interesting concept with a lot of good ideas, great voice acting and an elaborate story. There is a lot to like, especially if you are a fan of tropey anime romps, but it has its fingers in too many pies, ending up feeling unfocused and not as polished as it could have been. There is definitely a very interesting game in Farmagia with lots of moving parts and a story that clearly had lots of effort put in, but it falls short in a few areas with disconnected farming mechanics and framerate issues. This is a shame because there is a lot of heart to be found within. Any big anime fans are likely to have a good time with the story and voice acting, but outside of that, there isn't much to grab players.

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's unconventional gameplay mechanics are a hit while not being excessive or carrying the entire game on these procedures. The mix of gameplay elements is original, congenial for fans of the genre, and captivating for those who are curious. While the makeup of the environments and actually running around in this world may seem somewhat barebones and dry, the complexities and layers implemented in Farmagia make strategizing and actually participating in the game's functions compelling and gratifying. The anime style may be overdone, but experts in this field make this element bearable for the most part. Music that dominates, incredible voice acting, conceptually cool monsters, and substantial graphics and character designs make a game that's hard to miss. Farmagia harvests up the qualities that make a game great and triumphantly forms it in a way that flourishes into something special.

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 be the most palatable thing for younger kids. Farmagia’s mixture of so many ideas was not the issue, just the execution.

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 combat system proves satisfactory and the narrative manages to entertain.

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 a shame that its universe isn't well-presented enough, and there's no depth in the combats, farming, or even the production in general. This is a suggestion for fans of the anime style and/or anyone who wants a unique action RPG with good ideas, despite being relatively simple.

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

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.

Having spent time building my farm, raising creatures, and exploring Felicidad, I can confidently say that Farmagia is a delightful blend of strategy, adventure, and nurturing gameplay. It doesn’t just offer you monsters to train—it invites you to form bonds with them, making every battle and exploration feel rewarding on a personal level. If you enjoy building connections with creatures, managing resources, and exploring magical worlds, Farmagia is a game you’ll want to sink your time into.

Farmagia turns out to be a real surprise and knows how to impress with its really special mix of farming, monster tactics and action gameplay. The characters and the world come into their own even more for fans of Hiro Mashima's works, even if the presentation leaves a lot to be desired.

Farmagia is an experience that has revealed itself as 2024’s most pleasant video game surprise. Between the strong cast, gratifying combat, and approachable yet fulfilling farming and raising mechanics, all of my boxes were checked. Of course, I have no idea how this title performs on Switch, so it may not match the relative smoothness of the PC version’s framerate, and the narrative writing has its fair share of noticeable stumbles. I also may be in the vast minority upon this release’s reception, seeing as I’m a fan of less-than-liked recent outings such as Soul Hackers 2.

With its mix of creature collection, strategic monster battles, and farming mechanics, Farmagia offers a unique experience for RPG fans. Despite its performance hiccups and dense tutorials, it has charm, though not every player will enjoy the fighting aspect of the gameplay. If you’re willing to push through the initial learning curve and forgive the occasional slowdown, Farmagia provides an experience worth investing in.
