  I run around with a cooler and a gun. I shoot things and put their meat in my cooler. I take it to the burger place. The burger place loves my cooler meat. I take that money to buy pigs. Pigs are great for cooler meat. Big money on pigs, more pigs more cooler meat.

  dear developer! I really like the game but I am bothered that 5-10 chickens need to be out of the basket every morning. It would be a good idea to leave the eggs with their mom to hatch. (im from Hungary so sorry for my bad english)

  I had a hard time getting into this game because after the tutorial quests there nothing, it's like, "have fun kiddo! The world is your oyster." Don't get me wrong, I became addicted to building my ranch but I equally got frustrated quickly over the clunky controls and the emptiness of the world and the lack of info in the store in regards to using tools. I spent 5 minutes trying to put deer meat through my meat grinder, but apparently you can't use it for wild game. No where anywhere does it say this. Finding eggs is hard, they're so small and get lost in the grass. Having to pick up tiny chicken poops piece by piece? tedious, and when your character pivots their stance or a hen walks in your way you have to TRY AGAIN. HOLD E TO REMOVE. Demolishing things you've built should give you at least some materials back. Reloading your gun takes an eternity when it actually happens. If you have your gun in your hands you can't get in your vehicle until you unequip it, this killed me MULTIPLE times. I'd love to see more customisation for the ranch itself. Decorations, paint for buildings, flower beds, maybe some birds in the sky? A large map, with a huge empty lake, insanely fast deer, bears and wolves that don't give you any sort of skin or pelt when you hunt them. I also made almost an hour or progress and the game crashed and I lost it, twice. yes, twice. save often. I'm aware it's a work in progress, I'm extremely excited to see where it goes. As it stands it doesn't really feel worth 30$, but as it improves or when it goes on sale I recommend it to people who love mindless, grindy games like farming sim.

  BEWARE IF YOU PLAY THIS. This game will continue to run after you close it, in a hidden background, that will count for your time played. The devs did this so that you will always hit the 2 hour minimum that will make it non-refundable. So be weary if you buy this to close steam entirely after if you intend on getting a refund, otherwise it will run in the background and these scumbags will get your money. So sad.

  I enjoy this game co-op with my wife. It is great together time working together building a ranch. The Developer is active and responds frequently to posts. Also happy to see the game regularly updated with improvements and new activities. When my wife gets off work she likes to blow off some steam by hunting bears :) Better that then taking out her frustrations on me! I highly recommend this game, especially to couples looking for some great in game time together. I give it 4 stars out of 5.

  Overall, especially considering the game is still in early access, Ranch Sim is a great game. It allows the player to build freely on their property, including blueprints for things like walls and windows in case you'd prefer to design your own buildings. You also have free range of the world to hunt and cut down trees for extra wood. The layout of the buildings in relation to the ranch is a bit confusing at first but grows on you over time, and eventually those hairpin turns become quirks of the trip instead of annoying directional distractions. The actual ranching aspect of the game is also nice. You can buy chickens, pigs, cows, and goats to raise and either slaughter or use to get produce. At stores you can buy products to help you along, such as meat grinders and milk buckets. The graphics are very nice, even if you have a slower computer and need to put them down (like me). The first and third person view options are also useful for driving in reverse versus doing things on the ranch. Now to get into some of the specifics: Pros: - beautiful graphics, even on low settings - variety of animals to raise - multiple ways to play (ranching, hunting, farming, etc.) - free range on your ranch to build and design it how you like - free car at the beginning, negating any unnecessary walking before grinding for a car - good control mechanics, using mainly left click and E as interact buttons and WASD for movement (including driving) - variety of products to buy from the stores to make your job easier as you get enough money to buy them - gas is not ridiculously expensive like it often is in these types of games Cons: - sometimes the controls in first person mode can be difficult because the character sways from side to side as you move the mouse, often causing you to misclick items - there are few directions on how to actually utilize the products from the stores and how to get your ranch going after the tutorial - driving controls are very sensitive and sometimes cause you to run into trees - metal is extremely expensive - you cannot rebuild the arch at the entrance to your ranch if you remove it for any reason - you cannot rebuild the garage if you remove it for any reason - bears sometimes appear in store areas - deer will literally change directions to make you run into them - animals eat a lot of food compared to how expensive it is to buy it - you cannot sell some items back to the stores To go into a little more depth on the cons: When you go into the build menu, which is very nicely put together by the way, there is no explanation on any of the builds. While this might seem unnecessary for stuff like houses, things like preserving bins would be nice if they had a little more detail in the descriptions (for raw or salami or cooked meat, etc.). It would also be nice if you could change your view to be wider once you have a blueprint selected, since a lot of the time you can't see the area around what you're placing (important for things like connecting fences). Another serious problem I've found is the price of food. $30 a bag doesn't seem like much when you start with over a thousand dollars, but after you buy animals you'll quickly realize they eat a lot. Chickens' eggs sell for very little, and with hens only laying once a day, they're not a great method of making money. Pigs, being the next animal up in price, are much better. They can be bought and fed until they're big enough to be slaughtered for profit meat. The problem here comes with the feeding part. Two pigs (a male and a female) eat about one bag of food a day. If the female becomes pregnant and has 4ish babies, you're suddenly going through three bags a day. Add chickens into that (eggs increase the selling price of meat), and you're using up bags as quickly as you can buy them. Eventually you'll run out of money, be unable to buy more food, and lose half or more of your animals to starvation before they're ready to be slaughtered for profit. Either the price of food needs to be decreased, or animals need to eat less, because right now it's incredibly hard to get your ranch off the ground. Speaking of that, there's no directions as to what to do after you complete the tutorial. Nowhere in the game can you easily get information like how eggs increase meat profit, boiling sausages on a stove increases profit, there's a drying room in a ranch house, animals die immediately once their food bar runs out (which can be within a day), you can't sell back concrete or metal, etc. It would be nice if you could complete some sort of notebook within the game that has these things written down so that not everything is so hard to learn. The barn design is another thing that bothers me. The stall doors only open/close from the outside, so getting an animal to stay inside while you close the door is really hard. You cannot make the floor anything but grass, so eggs get lost and water piles up from the rain (even though you have a roof). The windows cannot be closed. Side doors only open in two separate pieces--you can't latch them together like in real barns and make it a single piece door, so opening and closing it can be a chore. The barn is peeling in paint and old-looking as soon as it's built, which would be fine except everything else the player builds looks brand new. It'd be nice if the barn reflected that too. Some animals are a little big for the barn stalls, so it'd be nice if you could expand the barn more than three times (which is already a small barn to begin with) and have bigger stalls. Notes for the developers: - make food less expensive or make animals eat less - make it possible to sell back things like concrete and metal - make it possible to sell unprocessed wood for quick cash - make the barn stall doors able to be closed/opened from the inside - make it possible to close the barn windows to prevent rain from coming inside - add a flashlight (it gets pitch-black at night and you only have mounted lights and your car's headlights) - make it take longer for animals to starve (like maybe more than a single day please?) - make eggs more profitable or make chickens produce more so that they're actually worth having around - add instructions on how the rest of the game works beyond the basic tutorial - make the barn have an actual floor (and maybe add buyable bags of shavings for the animals) - make the side barn doors able to be one piece instead of two - fix the field of view in first person mode so that holding items (like bags of wheat, for example) and viewing blueprints doesn't block the view of what's in front of you/where you're trying to place it - fix the weird swaying motion that makes it hard to click on things in first person mode - PLEASE make built items moveable! I should be able to pick up and move a small table, like come on - half of what you got from building something when you break it should be more like three quarters, especially if they're immovable once placed down - I've also experience a lot of having to click items three or four times before it registers (which isn't my mouse or computer because I've never had that problem before) so maybe see about looking into that Overall, I would recommend this game, especially in early access, because I think it has a lot of potential and is fun to play right now. You can easily sink six straight hours into this game. But be warned that there are a lot of little frustrating things that can be improved (and hopefully will be) as the game progresses in development. Happy ranching!

  Would be much better in Co op mode if people had their own ranch. Tired of fighting with friends to build what I want. Can you please make it so friends can have their own ranch? Would make game more fun, Especially if you can sell stuff to other players.

  Love the game. But have a suggestion for the devs- with all the rain on the farm why the heck do I have to constantly water my crops? It is raining for a full day and my crops will be bone dry. There will be mud on the ground and still my crops are bone dry.

  Alright devs, I hope you read this because I came into this blind and I want to give you my first impressions. This game definitely gives me the hands-on farming experience I was looking for, hatching my first chick felt like a genuine achievement, and tearing down all the old buildings to build my own was fun and rewarding. You've also been doing regular content updates and fixes, which is great. Overall, I would recommend this game to people....HOWEVER First thing I noticed (and something that I haven't seen mentioned on other steam reviews strangely enough) is the lack of sound in a lot of areas, or just bad sound design in general. It just sounds far too quiet, there's no ambience, if you walk five feet from the sawing table it goes dead silent, and the sound of your own car is just a constant flat droning noise. The general handling of small objects can be a little painful at times, especially eggs, making it so your selection 'snaps' a little would help, but there's also the problem of the camera swaying sometimes when you turn (which makes sense realistically but my god is it annoying). On a side note, LET ME TURN OFF WHATEVER MOUSE ACCELERATION AND SMOOTHING YOU'VE LOCKED ON PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Fence building is just a bit shit, there's no auto size-adjusting final piece to complete a paddock, so you just have to kind of...get them as close as you can, which is irritating. Driving...I don't think I need to explain myself on that one. Accessibility - as someone who is visually impaired, there are some things in this game that need serious improvement. Like finding BEES dear god its impossible. And the one time I did find one I got immediately mauled by a bear. There's also a ton of quality of life improvements that could be made to the game in general, and yes that's how early access is, but I've seen a lot of early access games 'release' into '1.0' and they're still just as janky as they were when they started. Please don't let this be one of those games. So yeah, I'd say a solid 6.5/10 at the moment, I look forward to see what you add and improve next!
