[[Farmville]] is a [[Web Games|flash-based game]] by Zynga Inc., available through [[Facebook]]. You play a farmer, with a single farm (at first) consisting of [[Isometric Projection|isometric tiles]]. You plow land, plant crops and trees, buy animals, and harvest them at regular intervals. You may also buy buildings, decorations, vehicles, and various other items, many of which are cosmetic rather than functional. The primary currency is "coins", which are earned through harvesting, completing achievements ("ribbons"), and assisting your neighbors. There is also a secondary currency called "Farm Cash" which is primarily purchased with real money, and is necessary to [[Bribing Your Way to Victory|buy most of the really good stuff]]. Through working on your farm and buying items, you earn experience, which in turn unlocks better items as you gain levels.

The game promotes socializing and sharing. Your ability to expand your farm is dependent on how many neighbors you have, so if you have Facebook friends who play FarmVille you will probably be getting a lot of neighbor requests from them. Other than that, there are many items that can only be obtained by having someone send them to you as a gift, and you can earn extra coins, experience, and items by visiting other farms and fertilizing their crops, feeding their chickens, and whatnot.

It is a sister game to ''[[Pet Ville]]'', ''[[Fish Ville]]'', ''[[Frontier Ville]]'', and ''[[City Ville]]''. It's not a well known fact, but Farmville is actually inspired by [[Happy Farm]], developed in China (which itself was inspired by [[Harvest Moon]]). You would think it's usually the other way around.

* [[Anti-Poopsocking]]: You can sit there and obsessively farm berries all day for quick experience, but most crops ripen and most events occur in daily intervals.
