This book changed my life. 1 Mar 2011
By James Tryand - Published on Amazon.com
Format: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.

Non Sarcastic Review of Consumer Product. 21 Jun 2011
By I'm a Deck - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
A book that does not need to exist at all, for a game that does not need to exist at all. It should of been a flip book, pop up maybe, or just a haiku, instead it's 288 pages illustrating why Angela Morales and Kyle Orland are getting rich while you atrophy. When I say this game does not need to exist, there is no subtext, this is the product on an infomercial that solves a problem that does not exist. Being worthless and accomplishing nothing has never been easier. It's breathtaking how misappropriated your time must be, if you not only play the game but read a book about how to be better at it. So far the only people that I know who own this "book" are actually intellectually disabled.

A must read for any FarmVille professional 25 Feb 2011
By Cletus Junior III - Published on Amazon.com
Format: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.
