Funky Barn
© 2012 505 Games, Inc.
Sort of like the sims, only with a farmland full of animals, crops, trees and more, this game lets you take care of farm animals, and collect things like milk, eggs and wool which you can sell to improve your farm. If you properly build roads, you can get to a set of wacky contraptions to turn your products into cash. Winning requires careful spending and a lot of work. If you spend your money well you can trade with neighbors to manage your farm wisely. The Wii U gamepad lets you touch, tilt, shake and speak to control your farm. Developed by Tantalus for 505 Games. Our game tester said "buy it" even for $50. "This is a fun game."
