I guess it is not hard to see that the strongest trend in time management games is farming, even exceeding the number of fashion and food games released over the last couple of months.
I know that this poll will be obsolete in a couple of weeks, with the releases of Farm Frenzy 3, Orchard and Flora's Fruit Farm (if it will ever come out), but nonetheless I am extremely curious about your opinions. Just pick the game you really liked the most and explain why.

I know that I stated in another thread that Dairy Dash is my favorite dash game, but only from the PF Dash games. All in all I decided to choose Ranch Rush, as it was the most-balanced and fun game from all of them. I have to admit that the difference between Ranch Rush, Dairy Dash and Farm Mania is very small, though

I chose Dairy Dash. I like it best out of ALL the "Dash" games. It was a real challenge towards the end, and it was the first Dash game I ever got expert on. I hope there is a second one.
Oooh I love this thread and poll!! Great idea Creedy! Please post more! I loved Dairy Dash because it reminded me of my grandpa's farm. Barking farm dog, all the farm animals...that darn broken down pickup truck...the only thing missing was the obligatory yellow school bus that a lot of farmers drive to supplement their income!
I think my favorite farm game was Garden Dreams. It came out the same time as Plantasia back in 04. It was one of the first type of farm related tm games. The main disappointment was with only 50 levels it seemed rather short. As far as the more recent games I would have to go with Dairy Dash. btw Latte, you forgot about slopping the pigs on a warm summer morning and the smell of wet sheep. lol
The only farm games I've played were Dairy Dash, Farm Frenzy 1, & Alice Greenfingers 1. I didn't like Alice too much. She was too slow. It was a tough choice between Dairy Dash & Farm Frenzy, but since there's been SO much dash this year, I gave my vote to FF. I really enjoyed the graphics, the multiple game paths, the various trophies, and the building options.

Hey ljot, I knew I would forget one or two farm games. I've never heard of Garden Dreams, so it must have been released before I started playing casual games.
Alevy, I agree with you about Alice Greenfingers. The graphics had its very own charm IMO, but untimed farm games are not my cup of tea. Though I somewhat enjoyed the beta version of Orchard, but that may have been due to the wonderful graphics and the clever inclusion of helpers.

Slopping the pigs? More like stepping in the cow patties in your best white church shoes so that your mom has to paddle your a**. lol. Couldn't help it! Those little piglets and calves are so darn CUTE!!
Hands down it's Ranch Rush for me. I'm a bit of a control freak so I really like being able to configure the farm to my own liking. It's the only farm game I've played all the way through more than once because I can choose a completely different setup and try to still make expert.
Yay Ranch Rush!! Looking forward to Ranch Rush 2!!!
I hope I picked the right one. I have to go back and look at screen shots, because I forget which game is which sometimes. I have only played about 4 on the list though.
Ok went back and looked at screen shots. I did vote correctly. I picked Ranch Rush. It was a fun game. The graphics are cute!

Easy choice for me - Dairy Dash. I liked the fast pace of the game and well, I guess I was better at it than most of the other dash games. Hope they come out with a Dairy Dash 2.
That is a hard choice since I really do LOVE them all. I just played Farm Frenzy--Pizza and that was very fun. I guess if I have to choose just one then it would be Dairy Dash.

I enjoy most of the farm games with the exception of Virtual Farm, but I would have to say my favorite farm game is Ranch Rush. The production values are stellar and I love playing this game. A close second would be the Farm frenzy series followed by Dairy Dash..
i never really liked dairy dash, but i enjoyed ranch rush and i totally fell in love with both farm frenzy´s!!! i love the animals and i spent hours playing both of them.
Farming games are perhaps my all-time favorites. I first caught the bug when I played Plantasia, and at the time there weren't many alternatives so I played the game start-to-finish some twenty times... at least!
