In Family Farm, the harvesting season is short with activities taking place in real-time, so players will need to manage their farm workers efficiently. They must prepare the soil, sow the seed and harvest crops, care for livestock and cook meals to stay energetic. Over time and when well managed, family members will improve their skills and work faster. External labour can be hired, but will be expensive. If the house is upgraded enough, perhaps new babies will be born, who will later contribute to the Family Farm. Farming was never this much fun!
Iceberg Interactive CEO Erik Schreuder says: “We believe that with Family Farm we can make a significant entry into the casual market. So far we have focused on certain niche genres to establish ourselves, but with Family Farm we strive to reach a very broad audience indeed. Family Farm has a combination of cute graphics, tycoon and time management gameplay features and life-sim elements, such as feeding the working crew, newborns that grow up to work on the farm, caring for animals and much more. If you are looking for a farming game with more depth than current farming apps on social networks, then Family Farm definitely is the game for you.”
“From the moment we announced Family Farm by releasing a short demonstration video, there has been a lot of interest from various publishers. We know Iceberg Interactive to be both indie-friendly as PC-focused, building its portfolio by adding remarkable titles of every genre. Family Farm is much more than just your typical casual game or tycoon title and we believe that Iceberg Interactive is the right publisher to market it well.” says Martin Prochazka, producer and lead programmer of Hammerware.
