Hello, my name is Doug and I’m addicted to Farm Merge Valley.

Am I the only one who jumped to the App Store to download “Farm Merge Valley” only to find nothing named that, while simultaneously realizing it was a joke?

Actually it does exist; it’s on Facebook and— how I and my friends discovered it— Discord, under Activities.

It’s actually kind of nice to just chill and play the stupid game while waiting for friends to join lobbies or between matches or if someone doesn’t really feel like playing but still wants to chat.

It’s also not my first Freemium rodeo (that would be Clash of Clans, and Simpsons Tapped Out, which I stopped playing eons ago), so I’m kind of more aware/mindful of how it’s trying to hook me with a wall to pay to go beyond, but instead of paying I’m just like “oh! that’s all I can do for now. Cool. Closing the game/time to go do something else!”
