Yacht-to-Dot. With 85-minute skill devotion. For everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Hey guys, Robin here.
Today we are going to look at the second skill by that fab developer, Tobias Sander, and it's called Farm Tycoon. And it's not so much in the tycoon vein, I don't think, anyway, than in the kind of yes sire, yes majesty, um, you know, things happen and you have to make the right decisions. Maybe that's like tycoon. Let's get it.
Alexa, open Farm Tycoon. Welcome back Farm Tycoon. Let's rise up the ranks. Your current game level is present.
Do you want to continue? Yes. Your welch is 50 and your goodwill is 50. Your workers have demanded more pay and better conditions.
Do you bring in cheap labor from out of town? Help. Your trusted advisor. Hello.
We'll present you a series of scenarios. Simply answer yes or no to determine the fate of your farm empire. Remember, to make good decisions that affect your wealth and goodwill to avoid attention from ruthless merchants and smear campaigns. Do you want to resume the game?
Yes. Your workers have demanded more pay and better conditions. Do you bring in cheap labor from out of town? No.
Cooler heads have prevailed and an amicable agreement has been reached. It looks like win-win for everyone. Oh, good. Your goodwill has increased to 60.
The mayor's office has raised taxes. The people call for you to lead the opposition to the increase. Do you agree to lead the opposition? No.
The refusal to do the right thing plays on your conscience. Oh, conscience. Just for now, you have one favor from the mayor, and we have been rewarded several government contracts. Your wealth has increased to 60.
Your goodwill has increased to 50. The clergy have noticed your absence from church. Do you attend to do penance? Yes.
The church blesses our farm, and you reap a bumper harvest. Oh, good. Your wealth has increased to 70. Your goodwill has increased to 60.
It seems our trustee accountant isn't so trustworthy after all. He's been cooking the books and skimming off the top. Do you make an example of him? Yes.
Oh. Oh. It's fair to say his hands won't be caught in other pies. Ouch.
There is a new trend that's spreading down the east coast. People are removing wheat from their diets. Do you abandon growing wheat? No.
Fads come and go. Good job, as this week's free obsession seems to have run out of steam. Your wealth has increased to 80. Excellent start.
Good. It looks like your gut feelings for business is sharp. Your combined wealth and goodwill have reached 140. You've earned the title of land owner.
And your farm is developing well. Keep making smart decisions to become a farm tycoon. Okay. You can continue enjoying the free version of Farm Tycoon as much as you like.
Okay. However, consider purchasing the premium version. It will allow you to earn the title Farm Tycoon to complete the game and jump onto the leaderboard, as well as give you access to over 100 more decisions to make. Do you want to purchase the premium version?
No. Doesn't see how much. No worries. Please keep playing the free version as much as you like as a peasant.
Okay. If you decide you want to be among the best Farm Tycoon players, just say, Alexa. My premium version. Oh.
Let's start again. Peasant. Oh, dear. Rise up the ranks to be a farm tycoon.
Hmm. That's it. You spend time with local tribes, and they teach your men how to hunt with spears. Do you now hunt wild boar and sell at the market?
Stop. Hurry back. We're at the beginnings of a farming empire. Farewell.
Hmm. I wonder if everything is reset, because I was a landowner, and now I'm a peasant again. So do you have to really get back to the start each time? Hmm.
Too soon. Before they force you to think about an in-skill purchase. Too soon. Tobias, too soon.
