BlockFarm: Farming Sim

Plow, sow and harvest a blocky countryside with tractors and combines. Raise cows and hens, and build your farm block by block. No ads, no timers. Plays offline.

BlockFarm is a farming game in a world made of blocks. Take over a farm in a green river valley, work the fields with big machines and grow it into a business: one field, one tractor and one harvest at a time.

WORK THE LAND • Cultivate, sow, fertilize, spray and harvest seven crops: wheat, barley, oats, canola, corn, soybeans and sunflowers. • Drive tractors, combines, a grain truck, a semi, a side-by-side and a quad bike, and hitch cultivators, seed drills, planters, sprayers and trailers. • Swap your combine's header: a grain header for wheat and soybeans, a corn header for corn and sunflowers. • Harvest on time: ripe crops keep their full yield for a few days, then start to spoil. • Fit GPS auto-steer and cruise control, and hire helpers to finish a field while you get on with the rest of the farm.

RUN THE FARM • Every crop has three buyers: two grain elevators and a specialist. Prices move day by day, and a 30-day price chart shows whether today's price is a good one. • Store your harvest in silos and grain bins and sell when the price is right. • Buy fields and forest, take contracts, take out a bank loan when you need one, and follow the money in Finances. • Keep your machines fuelled, serviced and clean.

ANIMALS, FORESTS AND BUILDINGS • Keep cows, calves and hens: fill the trough, pump water, sell milk and eggs. • Make hay: mow, ted, rake and bale your grass, and feed your cows your own bales. • Fell trees with the chainsaw, haul the logs to a sawmill or saw planks in your own, and plant new forests. • Mine stone at the quarry, cut it into bricks and make glass in a kiln. • Place ready-made sheds, barns, silos, fences and pastures with the Farm Builder, or build your own house block by block from wood, stone and glass.

A LIVING WORLD • Two hand-made maps: a river valley under snowy peaks and a wide golden prairie. • Day and night, sunrise and sunset, sun, clouds and rain. Switch on the work lights and keep going after dark. • Every block, texture and sound is made in code, in a crisp pixel style.

PLAY YOUR WAY • Touch controls made for iPhone and iPad, full game controller support (Xbox, PlayStation and other MFi controllers) and hardware keyboards. • New to farming games? Rowan, your neighbour, walks you through your first season. • Start on an established farm, or from scratch with a small used kit. • Your farms follow you between iPhone, iPad and Apple TV with iCloud. • Plays offline, no account needed. No ads, no timers, no energy. • Optional Paint Shop expansion: paint your machines and trailers in your own colors.
