All of the player's decisions will contribute to the eventual success or failure of their farm, as will factors beyond their control, such as bug infestations, weather conditions, and market trends. When setting up their farm, players must decide which crops to plant, livestock to raise, employees to hire, equipment to purchase, and structures to build. The farming simulation game, which is the first game to be licensed by agricultural equipment manufacturer Deere & Company, charges players with establishing and maintaining a successful farm. Bold Games, a unit of Destineer, and Gabriel Entertainment have today announced the North American release of John Deere American Farmer for the PC.
