This book changed my life., 1 Mar 2011
By James Tryand - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: FarmVille For Dummies (For Dummies (Computers)) (Paperback)
This is a fantastic book. I don't know how I managed from day to day without it. For instance I was getting worried that zombies would take over my farm. I was relieved that this book explained to me that that was a different game altogether and that they are completely separate, and the zombies from the game I had not signed up for wouldn't rise.I have found a number of tactics and techniques in this book that I am now able to use in real life.
This book has been a real lifesaver. I don't know what I would have done without it. I no longer have to cry myself to sleep at night, now that I have it for comfort.
It was able to provide enough instruction to be able to not only repair my car ( using the section on tractor maintenance ) but is able to advise me on other things such as choosing good combinations for my crops and self-defence techniques using only farming implements.
Without this book my life, and farm was incomplete.

A must read for any FarmVille professional, 25 Feb 2011
By Cletus Junior III - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: FarmVille For Dummies (For Dummies (Computers)) (Paperback)
So I am no FarmVille newbie, but the strategy this book as taught me has opened my eyes to a new level of game play. After all it's not just about building a farm, it is about complete FarmVille domination. I am really glad that this book came "IN FULL COLOR" as it really helped illustrate the complex intricacies and gameplay, sometimes all the various crops can be confusing so I was really happy to see a complete index in the book as well. I was also comforted by the books preface stating "you do not need to be a computer nerd or skilled gamer to use this book" whew! that would have been embarrassing I was also glad they pointed out that I could not play the game without a web browser...which actually solved the first problem I ran into.
Listmania!
