In this excellent game you are a small farmer trying to make your farm worth £250,000.

You estimate each month the effects of frost, drought, labour costs, etc and decide whether to plant harvest, buy or sell on the basis of weather forecasts and farm and financial progress.

These are clearly displayed each month with advice on the implications of your choices, and a monthly summary shows what you have done to your farm and your bank account.

The displays are very good, and even the detailed and realistic financial information is easy to follow.

The program is a model user-friendly game, loads easily, has clear on-screen and insert instructions, optional sound, is well mug-trapped and allows restart without loss of the game.

The excellent presentation and five levels of difficulty make it good fun to play whether you want to think everything through or just have a go. Recommended.
