The graphics of the game are generally considered dated but still acceptable, with some players appreciating the nostalgic value and modding capabilities. While many reviews highlight decent visuals and smooth gameplay, there are mentions of performance issues and minor glitches, particularly on lower-end systems. Overall, the graphics are seen as a mixed bag, with some praising their quality for an older title, while others recommend newer games for those seeking high-end visuals.
- “The graphics are amazing for a game of this caliber, and the gameplay is very smooth. Though there are minor glitches here and there, they are quite entertaining and not game-breaking.”

- “The game's graphics are impressive, with a well-designed environment and detailed equipment.”
- “Whenever I get close to the chicken coop, the screen freezes, but the game keeps running (you can tell by the sound, because it responds to the controls). I have a laptop with UHD graphics, so I think that's why.”
- “The graphics could do with an upgrade to compete with other simulation games such as Euro Truck Simulator 2, but nonetheless, the equipment you can buy is still fairly detailed.”
- “Go buy GTA or something; the graphics are horrible and the gameplay is so boring. I don't know how one can do it, and I have a ton of hours on it thinking it could be fun, but it's not.”

- “As of downsides, the simulation is far from well-being and from reality in many aspects, starting from engine and physics, going with visuals, stupid gameplay challenges, unhelpful tutorials and so on.”
- “Go buy GTA or something; the graphics are horrid and the gameplay is so boring. I don't know how one can do it, and I have a ton of hours on it thinking it could be fun, but it's not.”

The game's story is minimal, with no overarching narrative or character development; players primarily engage in farming activities and complete repetitive side missions like mowing lawns or transporting goods. While the missions can provide a quick way to earn money, they are often seen as tedious and lacking variety, leading to a gameplay experience that feels more like a simulation than a story-driven adventure. Overall, players create their own narratives through farming and managing their land, but the absence of a structured storyline leaves much to be desired.
- “The game's missions are well-designed, offering a good variety of tasks and challenges for players to complete.”
- “There are missions now that allow you to take a break from the farm work to help others out and earn some cash.”
- “There is no storyline, no tutorial, no ending.”
- “The game itself has no story, apart from the story you create by expanding your one small field into a farming empire with every field on the map under your control!”
- “There are only two types of missions that ask you to mow some grass or move heavy equipment across the town.”

- “It's amazing, I love the soundtrack; it's bopping!”
- “Instead, I found myself singing the chorus to Craig Morgan's 'International Harvester' song over and over again as I putted down the road of middle America on my Amazon mower at a whopping 6 mph!”
- “Some cons for me were the lack of an integrated music player like in Euro Truck Simulator 2.”
- “Music/sfx: na - calm music on menus only.”

- “It's bug free, and runs on relatively low-end machines.”

- “Surprisingly amount of gameplay for a simulator, mostly bug-free, though be careful as physics can often leave you stuck in the most precarious of positions.”
- “Whenever I get close to the chicken coop, the screen freezes, but the game keeps running (you can tell by the sound, because it responds to the controls). I have a laptop with UHD graphics, so I think that's why.”
- “A fun game that requires a lot of your time; however, the game has a lot of glitches that can make it frustrating at times.”
- “Lag issues and small freezes can occur in multiplayer, but that's not the game's fault.”
