Of course, everyone can play farming games. Everyone’s free to come and give it a try. However, not all people are a perfect fit to playing this type of games. That’s because this genre has its own unique set of attributes that are, unfortunately, not so appealing to some types of gamers.

Here are some of the personalities that are best attuned with farm simulators.

First, a person needs to have a very big imagination. FPS games don’t require much of imagination, because everything that you need from the world is right there in front of you in these shooter games. The settings of MMORPGs, on the other hand, are an embodiment of imagination itself. With farm management games, however, your imagination guides what you do. While there are fundamental actions that are set in stone for you to follow like farming and building structures, how you manage and build your farm depends entirely on your imagination.

Another attribute of a person that’s a best fit for farm games is being diligent enough to log in for a few minutes every day to check on your farm. These games require regular collection of income from your structures as well as periodic harvesting of your crops. The frequency of your log ins, however, is totally flexible. It depends on what types of crops you plant for your farm. Some crops take 48 hours to mature and be ready for harvesting, while others can be ready in just five minutes. They need to be harvested within the same period of time, or else they will wilt and you will have no production.

Third is, a person should be resilient to monotony. You’ll have to admit that, after a certain period of time, farm simulators can be monotonous once you’ve gotten your routine down to pat. Some games also impose a cap on how big a person’s farm can be and, once you’ve reached that cap, you no longer can expand and your farm can seem monotonous to you. That’s why you need to have a big imagination – monotony can be easily dealt with when you are actively visualizing what changes you will be introducing to your farm to keep it fresh and new.

Last but not the least, a person needs to be passionate about building his or her own world from scratch. It takes a lot of planning and visualizing when building your own farm, even a digital one through simulation games, and you have to establish a routine for planting the crops and collecting the income. Thus, with all the requirements, a person must have passion for this kind of management, or else they will just get tired of playing farm simulators.

Make no mistake about it. Farm games are absolutely for all people to play. However, in order to truly enjoy the experience, a person needs to have certain qualities in order to successfully build a digital farm from a small patch of land to a sizable property that gives excellent income, at least within the game.
