Guide to easily beating the EPIC difficulty in Farm Keeper. Note that this guide contains spoilers about “secret tiles”, so don’t read it if you want to figure it out for yourself.
The Prelude
Before you begin your journey to easily beat Epic mode, you will need to unlock a few “secret tiles,” 含む
- CORN
- TRACTOR
- WEATHER VEIN
- WATER PUMP
- 納屋 (not necessary, but very nice)
- 鉱石 (not necessary, but very nice)
You can unlock all of these by playing on the easiest difficulty, just complete the challenge to unlock them.
Another requirement to play the Epic mode is to beat the Challenge and Boss mode, both can be beaten easily with this strategy. Doing so will unlock the “secret tile” for chests, which will always give you 2 結石, 2 木, と 50 金. Chests also leave tillable land behind, so always pick a chest when it appears.
始まり
The best way to get started at EPIC difficulty is to start with 2 岩 (or even better, ore veins), which you will immediately turn into 2 wells. 次, use the energy from the wells to plant as many watered carrots as possible.
The best free tokens to get in the coming days are rocks or ore veins, they will give you a rock to build another well and give you a new token to start expanding farmland. If a rock or ore vein isn’t an option, picking a well or a tree is the best next move. NEVER CHOOSE A RANCH OR WATER SPOT.
In order from best tile to worst tile (early game)
- 胸
- Ore Vein
- 石
- Artisan Well
- Fruit Tree/Tree
NEVER PICK (buy empty tile instead)
- Ranch
- WATER
- ボート
- 山
The setup for land and wells is important, you want land to be in a 3×4 grid with a hollow center (2-space gap) and wells need to be a 3×3 with a hollow center.
重要な注意点: Switch from carrots to tomatoes as soon as they are available for maximum profit.
To the finish line
The rest of the race is very simple. Just get a pump and place it in the center of the Artisan Well grid. Then fill in the 3×4 farm space with a windmill on the far right and a farmer’s market on the far left (可能な場合は).
The only other buildings you will need are
- 1 納屋 (Re-roll ability DOES NOT STACK)
- 1 Weather Vane (used to water all tiles after tilling)
- 1 tractor (harvests all crops)
Continue to expand the land in a repeating 3×4 grid to the left. Plant corn as soon as possible and harvest from the bottom right corner when using the tractor for maximum profit. The combination of windmills, marketplaces and corn/tractor results in each new farm tile yielding 64 gold per day.
A few tips:
- Use the pumps to fill the wells before the end of the day.
- Check the weather before planting corn to avoid accidentally wasting energy on irrigation.
- Click and drag to quickly till and sow each day.
Your final farm should look like this
おめでとう, you beat epic difficulty with corn! I wonder how I can beat it without corn.
