★★★★★ "Another app designed to have to spend $$$ to advance. I wanted to like this. But the reward for the amount of hours I’ve spent is pitiful. Silo and barn fills but no way to upgrade unless real $ is spent. No real movement in a weeks time. Removing app and looking for a more friendly game." - Bandit8869

Doesn’t load
I have the updated version and it just doesn’t open it. Literally these days on the open screen and does not load.
iOS update
This app stopped working properly since the latest iOS update on my 9th generation IPad. This has been reported. Will there be a fix?
Another app designed to have to spend $$$ to advance
I wanted to like this. But the reward for the amount of hours I’ve spent is pitiful. Silo and barn fills but no way to upgrade unless real $ is spent. No real movement in a weeks time. Removing app and looking for a more friendly game.
The Game is crashing on iPads
Zenga engineers please fix & update the game so that it doesn’t crash on iPads. The game won’t even open fully before crashing
Blue screen
Even on the newest update, I cannot play the game. After a few seconds, the screen will turn blue. I reached out to support regarding this issue but have not heard back as of yet
Lots of Notifications
So I got this app and it’s a pretty good app, but it keeps notifying
me in the middle of the night, and I don’t like it I turned the notifications off and it still keeps notifying me and it just
Happened to me now. Can you please fix this? Thank you for reading my review.

Money grab game
I spend my time making things only to be told that my barn or silo are full. Takes days and days to collect enough items for an upgrade. I know the game makers want to sell me the needed supplies but I will not spend real money. There are plenty of games that I can play FREE, thank you. And I don’t want to be in a ‘co- op.’ Enjoy it yourselves.
Game
I think you guys should bring back the original version of FarmVille, I don’t like these new games,the first FarmVille was the best
Issues
The update has made it so ads do not close out. You have to close and reopen the app but then you lose the rewards. Please fix.
Drops so low feels like watching paint dry
This is a dumb game. There is no way to work/play continually. 30 minutes to get a pint of milk to bake a muffin that takes an hour…2 muffins to complete an order…many orders required to advance.
Like watching paint dry or playing golf on TV. Totally lame.

Terrible IT.
Cant play game at all with recent update
They add new features and charge too much they steer people to their website to buy and then did not allow online purchases. A lot of stupid problems that should not occur. I haven’t seen such a bad IT in a long time. Zynga is absolutely the worst company. Online it says there are widespread problems in early April 2026. It is not getting better. I will never download another zynga game again. It is so bad there are YouTube videos that try to correct the problem but there are so many every attempt may or may not fix the problem a little. Many many people in my group have not been on for many days. Zynga will try to make you believe it is your device or your internet. It is not. everything else works and it is them or there would not be such wide reports of crashes. Why am I writing this here. Because it crashes every time I try to contact support inside the game. Smh

Takes FOREVER to actually play
When you load up the game it takes five or more minutes to get through all of the pop ups and you’re forced to go through all of the pop ups and games they want you to play. Stopped playing this game because of this. Just let me into the game and play. If I want to participate in events I will. Don’t force me.
The worst.
There is no way to untether the audio for this game from Bluetooth. The settings do not work and will not open to adjust anything. What is the point of having settings if you cannot open them. Uninstalled immediately.
Poorly designed
Downloaded, opened, played 20 min into the game, got the blue screen. Seems every time that I shift from the Order Board, it goes blue. So sad. Time to uninstall.
Stuck
I just downloaded the game to give it a try. Game got stuck at level two right away. Tried refreshing the app, deleting and redownloading with no luck.🙁 oh well I tried.
Help I cannot see new players since the 1st year
This has been going on since the very first year I have players from year one I still cannot send a gift to please fix this. I have 10 players now I cannot send a gift i love this game. This is the best farming game out there. There is always all kinds of new games This game needs to be a five star but only if this fixes please help, I’m not the only
Not “relaxing”
This game is overly demanding, nonstop pushing buttons. Wish it was like original game which allowed player to determine what tasks to do
No abre el juego
No abre el juego, ni aquí en mi cel ni en mi iPad y estoy dejando de subir de nivel, ya he mandado muchos mensajes y no hacen nada, así me reembolsarán todo lo que he gastado en su juego.
Need old original FarmVille back
Making all these new farmville games and they keep the same layout we want the original
Fun basis…poor app support and customer service and bugs
There are multiple bugs that if you contact via email, in app, or website they completely ignore even if you are paying. I’ve also had issues of co op members using sexually explicit language but because they spell it out letter by letter they refuse to see it as sexually explicit even though my children can read it. So they told me to report each letter. I did. Then they said I was in violation for duplicate reports. They said appeal. I did. They never responded. Essentially you can sexually harass team members if it’s letter by letter.
Too Many Glitches
Rather than fix the issues at hand to make the game run better and benefit everyone, we are constantly adding and adding things that make the glitches become worse. Not fun anymore!!
If I could’ve given it no stars, I would have!!

Glitchy Blue Screen
I want to play this game, I like it. I would just prefer if my screen didn’t turn blue every 2 minutes. Seemed good until the constant glitches
BRING BACK OLD GAME
Yall been advertising & bringing new Farmville since yall not reading or seeing the comments that everybody posting about ‘BRING OLD GAME BACK’ so just bring it back what is so big about that?
Wish it was like the old version
Having to wait to plant things, the cows and chickens expire, I just wish it was like the old version that you could play for hours. Can’t do that with this game.
Too much fluff
Just want to farm. Then there’s a boat, now exotic animals, look a new event system. I miss simple farming
Deep pockets/Greedy
I sure hope you have deep pockets if you d/l this game. The greed is unbelievable. Used to be fun but now, or should I say still ~ everything is $, $$, and more $$$. Find something else to play because this game is made to empty your wallet. There are issues within the game that “they’re working on…” for over a year now, yet their algorithms make sure you buy, buy, bye-bye! 👋
Ties you into side activities you don’t want!
While I enjoy the main “game” of FarmVille, getting drug into all their little side games whether you want to or not is VERY annoying. I do not like the way you can’t avoid the extra side activities if you’re not interested.
Bombarded with pop-ups
This game would be better if you weren’t bombarded with pops-ups for their ads and events that are going on and what event ended. You can’t close some of these out. Then more info pop ups and this is in little blurbs so you have to tap and tap again to get through this one because again, can’t close it out. It is not fun when you open a game and have to tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap and tap before you can even get to the actual game. Maybe one pop-up at the beginning to show current happenings would be fine, or better yet, just have a “current events” tab off to the side instead. It just makes me want to close the game and play something else at this point. Otherwise, it would be a fun game to pass the time.
Fun but gets boring
This game is fun when you first play it, but then, it doesn’t give you enough coins to buy property, animals, and build stuff.
Cost to build is to high
I play this game daily! I really love it but the fact it cost thousands to build things but then you get $100 for rewards doesn’t make sense. Give more for selling items or rewards! Or lower the cost to build new workshops!!
Noooo
Pay to play…. I uninstalled
The original Farmville
Everyone I know of was playing FarmVille at the beginning, when they took FarmVille away and made it FarmVille 2 and 3 it was disappointing and now we all don’t play it. Bring back the original FarmVille
Difficult to play for free
Difficult to play without purchasing resources to fulfill tasks.
Exotic animals.
The exotic animals is WAY TO HARD. I just stopped doing that one all together which sucks because I have to delete deliveries that want those products too. It’s to hard. Me a 2 other friends gave up on it
Wish Things Could Change..
So I downloaded this game because I was a big fan of FarmVille 2. Well Farmville3 has pretty graphics and art style and I like all the fun animals. It’s harder to get coins on this game. The wait times for making goods is also longer. I wish people in your co’op could sell goods like how it is in FarmVille 2. This also goes hand in hand with not being able to get enough coins fast enough. It would be cool if there were more decorations for your farm as well that you could purchase with coins. Idk if you guys are trying to get a cash grab from people to buy more coins and diamonds with real money but I’m really disappointed with these game play features compared to FarmVille 2. Please seriously take this into consideration. It would make this go so much more enjoyable..
Can’t move forward unless I pay for diamonds,
Why not have a real way we can do certain things to earn the right amount of coins and diamonds instead of having us pay for it
Fun game, terrible lag
The game is aesthetically pleasing and fun to play. However, the lag is something awful and makes you mess up or run out of time during fishing and is just generally annoying. To the point I am contemplating deleting the game.
Bugs
The game is fun but has too many glitches. It’s constantly closing and sometimes things I’ve done is gone and I have to do it over again!
Locked up
Great game potential was wonderful, but I got locked up uninstalled reinstalled, and brought me back into the same place place I was befo
FarmVille 3
I like the game and I have been playing for quite awhile, I’m on level 58, BUT I can’t seem to get any egg birds. None. Ever. I have 2 ducks, no chickens no matter what I do.
Turning glitchy
After years of playing, the app has stopped giving rewards as promised, freezes, doesn't provide resources it demands for completion of tasks, and has started throwing endless side tasks making smooth play impossible (loads up storage with unwanted items yet giving you no option to not play side tasks). It's hit the end of interest and simple enjoyment.
Game took diamonds no answer or reimbursement
I built my juicer station with diamonds and the game froze and reset it back to needing to be built, also took my diamonds. I contacted support with absolutely no help at all. If they fix this issue I will update my review.
