Critic reviews
- 8.0Farming Simulator 2017 - The Nintendo Switch Edition goes to extreme lengths to bring the realism of farming into the home of gamers, whether you enjoy that realism depends on how well you know the intricacies of farming.
- 7.0Farming Simulator: Nintendo Switch Edition is definitely one for the farming fanatics – and not really anyone else. If you’re interested in farming from both practical and management points of view – and have an awful lot time on your hands to explore that interest – you won’t find a better way (apart from perhaps a real farm) to experience it than this.
- Overall though, I can’t imagine anyone beating Giants’ offering when it comes to Farming Simulator 18. If you’re looking to relax and feel the digital earth between your digital hands, this one’s a keeper. Recommended.
- Farming Simulator - Nintendo Switch Edition does exactly what it sets out to do: The franchise makes a solid splash on the system with the benefits of last year's release. The vast amount of tasks and pure variety in how you can farm is staggering. The tasks rely on realism, which makes them a little slower-paced and decidedly not for everyone.
- 3.5Farming Simulator 2017 offers little in the way of graphical beauty to make it feel real. Everything is a chore, from the loading screen onward. The tutorial is confused and has such a painfully bare attempt at personality it makes you wonder if it was written by a crude artificial intelligence experiment. Buying and selling your goods are poorly explained, then when you get the hang of it, offer no real choices beyond continuing, drone-like, repeating the same dull tasks for the rest of time.
