Farm Manager 2021 News

Hello Farmers!
We know that you are masters of managing farm animals and taking care of ostriches, cows, and even boars. Will you manage to put these skills to use in the wilderness? European forest and its inhabitants await you in the new upcoming strategy game called Natural Instincts which releases this Thursday, July 22, in Early Access!





Get to know the lives and struggles of wolves, rabbits, or even wild boars with these short yet complex stories. Keep the dangers away from the animals and help them breed so their packs, colonies, and families can grow. Be careful, though, as the balance in the environment is very fragile.
You can lead the animals to extermination or bring balance and multiply their population. It all depends on you!

Dear Players,


Below you will find the changelog:




We have introduced three additional production buildings to the game – bakery, smokehouse and food processing plant. The new buildings will allow you to further process some of the products currently available in Farm Manager 2021.


Bakery

Produce your own flour-based food in a new bakery building




Smokehouse

Instead of selling your products from the slaughterhouse, set up a smokehouse and start producing aromatic smoked meats




Food processing plant

Combine different products from your farm and produce ready meals





Selling one type of product causes the market to become saturated over time, and the price of the product slowly decreases. The price of the product can be reduced up to 40% of the basic price.
