60 of 62 · most liked firstfull of glitches and lets be honest, game breaking bugs. got stuck in a cabin and the door wouldn't open to get out. the game has a report a bug feature, well i tried to log said bug with doors using it, and it crashed my system. joined the discord to tell them about the bug and they kicked me from the discord. not even like i was being abusive or toxic, literally just said what i have said in this review and they kicked me without reason.

It's Like a bunch of assets thrown all together + this is also not in early access, how can somebody release a game in such an early phase without early access tag, not enjoying the game 1 bit? Usually, these devs make amazing games dont know why they rushed this one. I am sorry but this game aint it. Rating - 4/10 ( MEH !! )
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I found this game in a package. The game is currently in early access and is clearly full of issues. The graphics aren't great yet it looks heavy. Character movements are awkward, including those of the characters you'll meet. The collection and search mechanics are not simple and intuitive, perhaps they dared a little too much (opinion and personal taste). At the moment I recommend trying the demo just to see if it meets your tastes. I don't feel comfortable recommending it at the moment. my…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ok, I love it^^ You can explore, build, cook, shoot and much more. BUT: It's really buggy and worst of all is the combat! You CAN'T kill soldiers but they kill you! It was game breaking for me =( Please, fix it......but I love it anyway xD
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Farmer's Father is a mesmerizing game that delves into the tumultuous era of the Cold War, highlighting the incredible strength and endurance required to survive in such harsh and deadly environments. Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuAmJpdh1PE The gameplay itself is challenging yet rewarding, mirroring the hardships faced during this period. As you navigate through the treacherous terrain, you'll encounter various obstacles and enemies, requiring strategic thinking and careful…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game, but to much of bugs for now. For example, cant drink water from river, you can't walk across a wooden bridge to get a fishing rod, the soldiers appear in no time and incapacitate you. it's hard to find carrots, It's a pity because there's no farming option like in farmers life, there's no hoe, it's not possible to dig up the remains of trees, the pig runs away and can't be found, the dog keeps walking too close to the human, it's still very difficult to hit game that doesn't falls…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Terrible. Bought this on sale a while back. I was waiting for updates before I played it because of the mention of so many bugs in the reviews. Game has been released for months with no updates. Played for 5 mins and said nope, removed from my library. Looks like the devs just made some modifications to the first game, took a cash grab and abandoned it. I won't be buying anything else from this developer. Hopefully most of you won't either. Stole my money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is a cash grab.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I do not know what they did with the final game, but for some reason it runs at like 2 FPS on lowest settings, a problem wich was not present in the demo. It also slows down everything else on your PC to the same speed wich makes it unplayable. I cannot recommend it in its current state, despite the great idea.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a big fan of Farmer's Life, I was genuinely excited to try Farmer's Father: Save the Innocence. The premise had so much potential, and I was eager to dive in despite the early warnings from other players about numerous bugs. Hoping that time had allowed the developer to iron out these issues, I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and purchased the game. Unfortunately, my optimism was misplaced. The game feels rushed, as if the developer didn’t take the time to polish it—or worse,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well Ill be honest as I can be. This is my first review in a while and I felt I needed to tell people what your getting here. I played 9.7 Hrs of this game and there isn't any content beyond that added yet. There are some fun challenges in the beginning and a decent beginning quest line. But thats where the fun seems to stop. After doing about 7 quests the quest givers had more for me but they are bugged. The soldiers can shoot though the walls at you, and theres NO FARMING at all yet. These…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought it I not regret it not less than I expected after playing Farmer's life and being fan of it. I recommend for fans of Farmer's life to give it a try it deserve.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Clunky as it was, I really loved playing this game, there are so few war time games that put you in the perspective of civilians and partisans and it's a super compelling choice to not have you player take up a role within either battling army. I am pretty forgiving of bugs and scuffed game play if I am having a good time, but as it is currently, the game is locked from progressing because of a bugged mission. I really wanted to be able to finish this game's story and unless these issues are…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I had high hopes for this game as I really liked “Farmer’s Life”, but almost a year after being released, it’s nowhere ready. It’s UNBELIEVABLY FULL OF BUGS and just plain boring. I’ve played it almost 18 hours and it has been really disappointing. They took the great game “farmer’s life” did to it what Konami did to MGS5 when they made Metal gear survive. I’m listing SOME of the major bugs I’ve encountered so far. This is beside to boringness. • The seasons are stuck in winter. Today, it…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In its current state it's broken and unplayable
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Keep an eye out for more bug fixes and this might be a decent game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While there is some promise to the game, it is severely glitchy (eg after I overpowered a guard and hit him with an axe a couple of times, he leapt to his feet and shot me dead with the gun he'd already dropped). The load times are horrendous and a lot of the text is missing. Quest descriptions are frequently lacking or completely inaccurate. It needs a lot more work before I'd consider recommending it. Editing to add - the game has now been "released", but I'm not seeing improvement. The…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The idea of this game was good, But they dropped it because lack of sales, but the sales were bad because of many bugs. So, they will never fix the bugs. I even wonder why they still have this game on steam. Just ignore this game and do not buy.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Mmmm.. what is going on here? I have 250+ hours on Farmer's life which is a great game, I support the developers as they have really made Farmer's life improved over the years I've played, now it's great. So onto this game.. I don't know what they are thinking, the story idea is great but this was launched March 2024 and hasn't been touched since, abandoned? Why is it even for sale? Some properly fundamental things are so bugged it can't really be played. For instance I have about 100 pieces of…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What we have here is broken drivel. It's not unplayable and I played for a short time and got a glimpse of the game-play loop that could have been. I bought it for $3 and got what I expected... But don't pay full price for this nonsense.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →if you like horrible games, you should buy this game. bought this for no reason and now i want my 2$ back.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would not recommend this game in its current state, It has good bones but needs a lot of work to make it enjoyable. Hunting and building aren't bad but the harvesting sucks, the lack of diversity in harvestable materials kind of sucks, The amount garnered during harvesting animals is abysmal, not to mention the limited interactions available during combat really bring this down. Pretty sure in the war if you shot a guy in the head he didn't keep shooting you, no bandages to heal yourself, no…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't recommend this game right now because of how unplayable it is with intense lag, bugs, and 20 min start up screen. I love the concept and idea but I literally can't play this game because I spend more time in loading screens then anything else.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really enjoyed the game however it is not ready to be out in my opinion. Had a bug where I couldn't add firewood to the stove which is an essential requirement in this game. The report a bug even bugged out. This game has a lot of potential and I did enjoy playing it but the bugs was just getting worse. The dog and The wife's pathing to get them in and out of the dugout was horrible. I will update this review in future after a few updates hopefully but until then I honestly cant recommend…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A dark survival game with a genuinely interesting premise, ruined by frustrating mechanics and a serious lack of polish. There’s potential here, but playing it feels more painful than the war itself.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There is a bug that stops you from progressing quests within the first hour. You are supposed to feed a pig and cow by filling a feeding rack and trough. However neither one will complete when you fill them. This is a problem that multiple people have mentioned, alongside animals being able to open the gates to their pen. I WANT to like this game, this is a niche genre I appreciate but the fact game breaking bugs exist, especially so early on with NO work around is completely unacceptable. The…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Complete mess. Full of bugs, nothing works as it should, no clear objectives. Hard to believe this is a released game. Not recommended.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It could be a good game but the team need to make some effort to polish it and fix the errors. So, some feedback: 1.Has a nice graphics, colors and forms of the objects. However, some characters need to be polish it. 2.The music is ok, proper with the theme of the game but personally don't like it, it's too sad. 3.The game crashes too often on a decent system(I5, 16Gb RAM, SSD, RTX 3050Ti) with a low profile. There are some lags when running before crash, also, the game crash sometimes when…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i say NO now due to the insane amount of bugs and glitch'y stuff that happens.. i spent at least 3 hours of my time on the load screen in and out of game due to missions being broken and myself dieing from solders... if i was to save game just before doing a mission or talking to someone then i was to fail the mission then reload that save it would be bugged so i would'nt be able to talk to npc so then i would have to load 3 to 4 saves before. i tried multiple times to do the mission to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i decided to give this game a shot even tho i read the comments of this game and a lot said it struggled to load and they were not lying took about 3 mins to load and the frames are beyond horrible to the point i could not play. i also could not back out of this game it took a few mins of freezing my pc pretty bad to the point i had to restart my pc . i refunded this game and don't recommend it now in its current state. this game needs to be optimized big time . i will come back tho this game…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Currently a mixed mess of assets. Here's to hoping the developers optimize and make this into something playable. Good luck on your adventure.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hunt, cook, explore, quest and build while protecting and caring for your family in a pre-Farmer's Life setting. So far the game is enjoyable with little glitches or major issues. This game is a good prequel to Farmer's Life but is also different in regards to the story and journal objectives. If you like Farmer's Life you should consider getting this game which will add to the overall experience. Take advantage of the bundle savings before you purchase however it is worth the original…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Over 4 months since it released as a full title back at the end of march and still nothing since then, no updates, nada, zip, zilch, nothing. When It went from early access to full release, I expected some new features, something, anything but discovered it was the exact same game as it was when in early access, a barely playable something that has some semblance of a game. I'm not going to tell you what to do with your money, Buy this game if you want, but if you do, you have absolutely no…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So glad that this excuse for a game, was a freebie. I installed said game, loaded it up, got to look around for 30 seconds then .......CRASHED... Loaded back in, game already says " 5 mins " played. Pfffft Got in game and as soon as it loaded, another crash. This is a piss poor way of making money . So bad, I ain't gonna support this developer ever !!! ( FreeMind S.A.)
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the developers have stopped work i warn not to purchase this game as its full of bugs i was not able to progress to finish game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought the game in order to have completed view on Kazimir's story as I really enjoyed the Farmers life walkthrough, despite the game not being the best simulator of a farmer. This game is extremely buggy, comparing to Farmer's life. Textures glitching is a what you will come across all the time. The game seems to offer no challenge as while looting crates in the building you can get all types of the resources you can imagine. Stealth mechanics is screwed, some quests are almost impossible…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is very far from it's sibling (Farmer's Life) when it comes to content and completeness. I would not recommend playing it at this time. Let it cook in the oven some more.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have never played Farmer's Life but I have watched many video on Youtube and enjoyed them! So I started playing Farmer's Father, knowing it was the prequel and the story continued. I figured it was the perfect time to jump into this game. Not to mention it was leaving EARLY ACCESS! Kool HUH Well I am going to say this, the game is BUGGY as hell. The FPS is ruff most of the time even with a NVIDIA 3080 10GB! Truthfully, I can not see this being any different then a early access version other…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the worst unity games ive ever played...shadows glitchen all over,grainy non AA graphics with stuff popin in just as u walk around....Refunded dont waste our money on anything these devs make just medicore trash Running this on hi end rtx gaming pc with nvme gen 4 ssd so its not the system its being played on game has aweful LOD setups for everything in it and just not even polished what so ever and there ready to drop this outa EA lmfao
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I feel like once the bugs on this game are fixed it would be more than better. The worst glitch and bug I'm facing right now is I can't even do the mission where you have to follow the soldier to the camp. He runs in circles and then just glitches and flies on top of the trees and never makes it to camp. After 50+ times of trying to reboot the game and load him in different positions he finally stopped glitching.. Once this stopped he just runs in a gigantic circle literally all over the map.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a Outstanding game to say its in early Access There is a lot that could be completed by the developers going forward .. i found that the game was lagging in places .. but i understand this could have something to do with the performance in early Assess .. 1/ I only found a few issues around the wife laying on the table still holding the child even when the crib had been erected 2/ and the time of the food getting burnt was far to quick after cooking .. and i was a race against time…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Huge heap of ♥♥♥♥. Don´t bother to spend a dime in it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love the concept just like farmer’s life, but a lot of bugs. And maybe the most annoying one is that I can’t kill soldiers with gun. I shot them milion times I see blood but they don’t die. But I believe it will develop just like farmers life.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i just didnt like it
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Farmer's Father: Save the Innocence is a survival-crafting title developed by FreeMind S.A. and published by FreeMind S.A. alongside PlayWay S.A.. Set against the grim backdrop of war and displacement, the game attempts to fuse open-ended survival systems with a deeply personal narrative about a father determined to protect his family after their rural home is destroyed. Rather than casting players as soldiers or heroes in a traditional sense, it places them in the boots of an ordinary man…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremly buggy game. Good concept for a game but please fix it!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's very basic, without a lot of fun to it. It's unfinished, with a lot of sound issues, and clipping issues, such as not being able to pick up branches, if they happen to fall in a certain way. Interesting idea, could have been fun. But it hasn't been finished, and the developers apparently aren't going to, with all the information at my easy reach. It's not "terrible" but it's not good. Mediocre at best. 4/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not worth playing
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is not working properly and has to many bugs it also seems to be unfinished. I am not sure if there will be anymore updates, If you choose to buy this game its a buy at your own risk. Cheers!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Only started but I really feel the game. To survive in a harsh world and take care of my family.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hello Im Skill Incarnate and Welcome to My Games Review Series. My reviews cover indie games that i have bought, had gifted to me and have been provided by developers for review. In this episode I check out yet another simulation game called Farmers Father - Save The Innocence on Steam. This game was developed by Freemind SA and published by my friends at Playway SA, the simulation game experts Farmers Father - Save The Innocence takes a more story based approach to the Simulation Game genre,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Did not expect this to be how I put it so raw. Idea is there and its unique in its own way, yet as many comments like mine states its not smooth.. not at all probally this should not even be out yet. Landscape is terrible, rocks and trees floats in air and tools and props. also the constant lagging due the unstability of the game takes huge toll on the game experience. I know it in EA but still as of now I render this simply unplayable and cannot recommend this.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Developed by FreeMind S.A., who were very kind to provide me with a key to review the game, F.F. is, at the moment, a very hard game to recommend. In it's current state of Early Access, the game is packed with bugs, and very bad optimisation; so bad indeed it had me looking at a loading screen for more than 30 minutes and forced me to hard reset the game twice. Overall, I had no fun in the game, especially because, even with the graphic settings on low, my Rog Strix still struggled to run it.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I barely made it work, because of new game crashes, translations needs polishing, i didn't often understood what i'm supposed to do exactly, game definetly not for me, but i liked loading screens
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While I do recommend it, I suggest waiting a minute to commit to! I love what they're trying to do with this game and I am having a blast, but there are some bugs that need flushing out. :) Give it a little time, just like other games from this developer! I did find it hilarious watching a soldier glitch out hard enough to start walking towards the sky though.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not at the moment but it will be good eventually I am sure. Super buggy
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game keeps crashing everytime I complete a task before I get a chance to save. It's happened 7 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ times and each time it takes forever to reload.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a hard pass for me. Clunky & slow everything from controls to interacting with anything in the environment/game.. its very much like a game someone made in their spare-time at home with no real desire to make it playable for others. Installed, played, uninstalled.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely full of bugs. At some point it's just unplayable.
