Farm Hustle

Fsaturday Flash Fun: Farm Hustle. Line up the cutesy critters in rows or columns of three or more; speed up the process with bombs. Advance levels by turning every square white.

That's yet another bad and slow Bejeweled clone, which was in turn a clone of a Japanese game.

kika, maybe you missed the part about the cutesy critters. Also, not exactly a bejeweled clone as that game doesn't insist you clear all squares before advancing. I found that element quite interesting.

Wasn't slow on my machine.

I thought it was fun, at least for a while. Clearing the spaces can be maddening, I've only made it to 9984 points or something so far.

Farm Hustle sounds like a dance from the 70's or something a grifter might try somewhere rural.

You can use the bombs after the time has run out for extra points.

This is a Swap Job clone. Swap Job is a little faster and more interesting.

the stuffed animals are cute, too.

Actually it's far superior to Swap Job because it has more sothing colors and there isn't any horrbile music playing in the background?

You can turn the music off in Swap Job.

Swap Job's alright, but the problem with it seems to be that sometimes when you click valid combonations it rejects them; or when you click you somehow select a neighboring piece.

I enjoyed both Swap Job and Farm Hustle. Thank you!

I spend way too much of my life playing these sort of games. I need to go into rehab.
