FarmVille 2: Country Escape review

FarmVille 2: Country Escape is the farming sim to choose if you want to play offline and still have a social side. Zynga's listing describes planting and harvesting dozens of crops, crafting recipes like apple pies, raising horses, chickens, cows and a farm dog, and exploring a coastal map for hidden treasures. A Farm Co-op lets you trade goods and finish group challenges with other players, and the core farming works completely offline. It is an App Store Editors' Choice with 4.6 out of 5 from 237K US ratings. The game is free to download, with optional purchases that include random items, and Zynga also sells monthly subscriptions for in-game currency. Purchases start at $1.99 for a Pile of Keys, and the Farm Pass costs $9.99. It ranks below Hay Day and Township because it has fewer ratings and a heavier store, but it is a solid pick for players who want offline farming with a co-op.
