Farm Heroes Saga: 2014

Farm Heroes Saga Hints To Win

Here are some essential hints and tips to help you play Farm Heroes Saga to win!

Make an adjacent match before going for any quota cropsies. Look for matches beside the cropsies you need. Matching them will boost the value of the ones you're really targeting. This is especially important in cases where a cropsy type is rare or in limited supply.
Keep your targets in mind. If a match doesn't boost or harvest a target cropsy or set up a chain, it's not really worth wasting a turn making it. Similarly, once you've reached the quota for a particular target, it's best to stop making matches of that cropsy until the others are filled.
Making matches near the bottom of the play area will benefit you. Making matches lower in the field increases your chances of making a combo when incoming blocks come in. Horizontal matches are better than vertical matches.
Keep your eyes open for opportunities for special matches, especially five in a row. Matching five cropsies in a row will harvest all of that type of cropsy from the board and usually set off an awesome chain reaction.
Use your boosters if you need them. If using a booster is the different between passing a stage or failing it, go for it. Just remember to hang onto them until you're almost finished a stage. You don't want to use them only to fail the stage anyway.
Don't waste your magic beans on the first round against Rancid the Racoon. You'll have to fight Rancid pretty regularly. You do so by collecting a target cropsy to reduce his health to zero. You can use magic beans to give your matches a little more punch, but you should never do so on your first round of any given Rancid stage. Give it at least one play and see if you can manage it without. Beans can be earned by clearing stages. The amount you get corresponds with how many stars you earn.
Don't use your gold for anything but unlocking gates. The game gives you 50 gold for free. That will unlock five gates with five gold to spare. You can use gold for things like refilling your lives or replenishing your boosters early, but you absolutely should not do this. The sooner you run out of the gold, the sooner (and more frequently) you'll have to bug people on Facebook to get past those gates.

Now, there will be some stages where you will run into trouble and find yourself not collecting all the required fruits and vegetables in the allocated time.

This is where you can use the 4 hearts you are given when you get stuck.

If you run out of all 4 hearts, then you need to do one of three things

Ask your Facebook friends for extra hearts
Buy hearts with your gold bricks
Wait 30 minutes for each heart piece to refill.

My opinion? Just wait it out.

This game does not need you to spend money.

Or bother your friends on Facebook.

With a little patience you will get your hearts for free!

What Is The Purpose Of Collecting Animals?

Collecting animals in this game does not actually serve any purpose. They just become permanent members of your farm and are there to make your farm look like it is alive and full. Just for a fun really.

What Boosters Are Available?

There are a few boosters available in this game, that are unlockable as you play the various levels.

They allow you to do a number of things.

Extra Turns - By unlocking this (which requires six gold bricks), you're able to continue your current run for five additional turns, on top of the ones you're already provided with.
Tractor - A single-use power-up that clears away a whole row of vegetables, in case you're stuck or just want to clear away some of the debris that can't be matched up right away.
Shovel - This enables you to dig up and remove one piece from the board. If it's a piece that's required in your collection, it'll be added to your total automatically. You can use this up to three times before needing to recharge it.

How To Get Three Star Achievements

The aim of this game is to match up as many fruits and vegetables as possible in the allotted time given.

All matches produce items that are added to a collection quota that you're asked to fill on various stages.

The best way to get your three stars is by completing matching opportunities that clear four, five or even six items off the puzzle board.

Big combo opportunities that help your clear more than three objects off the stage result in that star bar filling up much faster.

Special Cropsies and Obstacles In Farm Heroes Saga

A brief explanation of some of the special cropsies and obstacles in Farm Heroes Saga

Flowers: Flowers are the first special cropsy you will see in Farm Heroes Saga. You need to make matches adjacent to them four times to collect them.

They will remain stationary until you do so, blocking other cropsies getting in the way.

Your best bet with these is to try to make matches such that you're hitting two or more at a time.

If you pick them off one at a time, you'll probably run out of moves before you hit your target.

If you can set up a chain, each match that falls beside the flower will count towards removing it, making short work of them.

Chicks: You need to match three eggs to make one cracked egg, then match three of those to produce one chick.

Matching four or five will still produce the same result: one cracked egg.

Ice: Removing ice is easy you just have to make a match with the cropsy found inside.

When you do this, the game will treat it like a regular match but instead of removing the cropsy, only the ice will come off the board, leaving the cropsy behind.

You can actually make special combinations with iced cropsies and they'll work, but they'll always leave that last one behind.

Grass: This one is actually a positive all around. Matching cropsies on grass tiles adds to their value.

You can use grass to restore grumpy cropsies. Grass can be created if you have seeds and water simply by swapping them, but you won't see seeds for quite some time.

Buckets: When you make enough matches adjacent to them, buckets will spit out a few water cropsies randomly around the field. The properties of water buckets can make them friend or foe in equal measures. Since the water they spew randomly overwrites another cropsy, they can mess up your planned matches. If they're in an easily accessible area, you can end up getting flooded with water cropsies and not have enough of the other targets on the board. You'll often have to dig your way through flowers or ice to get at them, but remember you only need to access one side of them to produce water.

Grumpy Cropsies: You can make a grumpy cropsy happy again with the mood-altering power of grass. If a grumpy cropsy lands on a grass tile, it will change back to a normal cropsy.

What Is Farm Heroes Saga?

Farm Heroes Saga is the newest puzzle game, very similar to Candy Crush Saga!

In terms of difficulty it is probably the easiest, however you still need to play strategically to win.

The quotas on some stages are high, so you will need a plan of attack to harvest as many cropsies as possible in your limited number of moves.

Like other games of this nature, there are different stages. I am providing you with general hints and tips as well as guides to deal with some of the common obstacles you will come across.
