Farmagia Reviews
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 has fun and flashy combat, but its lack of depth and threadbare farming ultimately make it hard to recommend.
Although I genuinely applaud its attempts to try something new, Farmagia doesn'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 little to keep interest outside of further monotony. Once you add to these points uninspired visual design choices and predictable story elements, the game becomes very difficult to recommend to anyone but die-hard farming sim fans. Even then, it isn't bringing any fresh produce to the table.
Plenty is thrown at the wall, and just enough of it sticks, but it's hard to get over the idea of plucking monsters out of the ground.
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.
In the end, Farmagia isn’t a must-play game, but it’s a perfectly fine way to pass the time.
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.
Mediocre, Farmagia is much more of an interesting concept than a well-finished product. With a beautiful story in a well-designed background, the game suffers from efficient but uninspired mechanics, repetitive cycles and empty combat and farming models, which together never reach the potential that seemed promising.

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. 🐺
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.

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.

Farmagia was an idea with a ton of potential, but failed in its execution in most areas, especially in delivering a game that manages to be a bit fun amidst the innumerable issues I can see in this project.

Farmagia delivers a very unique product, its flaws are linked to its cycle and combat, and some parts in performance. But its calm farm life and story deliver something interesting, which makes you want to watch it when it comes out on some stream.

Farmagia is a game with Hiro Mashima's face, literally. But not just because of its design, I feel it's a game that has a lot of his essence. It's a game with great characters, who are very well-developed and layered, while also working with interesting themes and concepts that have consequences and weight to their actions. Fellowship and the “power of friendship”, recurring themes in Mashima's works, are also present here, which doesn't bother me at all, as I love a story with a good vibe and positivity. The game is far from perfect, its gameplay gets tiresome sooner than it should, some parts that seem too isolated from the rest and a second act that drags on too long serve as a counterbalance to the good parts and create a bitter feeling towards the game.

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.
