in Farming Taleslast year

Friends, I am glad to welcome everyone on the page of my blog @Hive. From the very beginning, I have been devoting articles to the wonderful NFT game on the WAX platform - Farming Tales. This game has made a splash in the world of crypto games. Everyone remembers that $3,000 chicken. The real discovery was that after about a year from the date of its creation, the game not only did not disappear from the Atomic ratings, but also entered the first lines of the rating.
Therefore, I was happy to learn about a new competition from developers with very good prizes. This article will be useful for new players, because in fact this is not just another clicker that will die in a month, this game, as the founder of Lycos says, "Not easy, but durable." I would also like to make this manual for Russian-speaking users. I will duplicate this article in Russian because there are a lot of these users and I would like to make this game a little clearer for them. The second part of my article will be in Russian. So let's get started.
The first thing we need to know is the game site: https://www.farmingtales.io/ .
We will be greeted by a colorful well-drawn website that has been redesigned several times. In fact, he's great. On the site we will see a short roadmap and several sections. The DAO section is not yet active. It will be available a little later. This section is for those team members who will take an active part in the life of the game - vote for innovations and make important decisions. All of these actions will be taken with the help of the LIRA token, for example one option would be to vote for staking multiple lumberjacks into one account. So, by pressing the PLAY button, we get to the main menu of the game. The program will ask us to connect your WAX wallet.

Next, we can choose which section of the game to go to: Get to the main site, get to your farm, get into the discord, get to Waxchester. Online or solo game. First we need to create our farm. Therefore, let's move on to the farm section. To do this, click on the appropriate section

After that we get to our farm. On the farm, we have several main opportunities to increase our capital. For new users, I will talk about each of them. So:

  1. We can place NFT animals and gardens in our field. There are 2 methods for this. First - buy NFT at https://wax.atomichub.io/explorer/collection/farmingtales
    The second is to craft animals or fields in your garage. For this we go to the garage.

Animals will give you products. Gardens will give you plants. You can sell them from the barn for SEST or participate in weekly quests, sell products on the market or exchange them for prizes.

image.png
Each animal produces a different product. In the garden, you can plant different seeds and harvest different crops. By selling which you will receive either SEST or will be able to complete the weekly quests to receive unique prizes.
A very important question is how to get SEST on a wallet. To do this, you need to use the exchange, buy for WAX SEST, you can do it at the link.
https://alcor.exchange/ru/trade/sest-farmingtoken_wax-eosio.token

After you buy SEST, you need to deposit them into your in-game wallet. After that, you can craft animals and gardens.

image.png
Animals need to be fed, gardens watered. Each time you collect products, you must give away some food or water. Food or water is replenished in the corresponding building. This is the Water Tower and SILO. By default, you have simple buildings in the game with a capacity of 100 units. Food and water are replenished using a special CBIT token. You can get it in two ways. The first is to buy on the same exchange for WAX and deposit to an in-game wallet or stake your SEST and receive CBIT twice a day. The more coins you stake, the more you get. Calculate the deposit according to the size of your farm.

image.png
Replenishment of food and water is here. You will be able to do this depending on the capacity of your buildings. Therefore, I advise you to purchase epic buildings. For the same cost, you will get more units of food and water.

image.png
After you have purchased NFTs, you place them on your field. The field has a limited size, so the higher your building, the more animals or seeds you can place, this will increase the capacity of your field. After placing the building and the animal in it, you will see a timer, after the time has elapsed, you will be able to harvest or produce the animal.

image.png
It is very important for new players to strike a balance between animals and vegetable gardens. It would be very wrong to sow vegetable gardens with the same seeds or buy the same animals. I would advise you to keep the proportion, for which I will tell you a little later. As you can see, I have chicken coops and gardens and stalls on the field. I try to name different animals and collect different products.

image.png
After you collect the products you need to go to the barns. This building has a capacity, the higher it is the better, you can put a lot of products in the barn. This is very important for weekly quests.

image.png
Friends, it is very important to follow the indicators on the left. These are food, water and filling the barn. It is very important that if your barn is full and you continue to collect products, then it will simply disappear. Therefore, follow this scale.

image.png
Once you get into the barn, you can sell all the products at once, sell the products in parts, choosing the one you need. The products will be sold for SEST and placed in your in-game wallet. Then you can withdraw tokens from your wallet to the exchange and sell them for WAX. This is the easiest way to profit from the game.

However, I understand that this game is not just a clicker, and now I will tell you about the second part of the game, the most important one. We have been waiting for this part of the game for a whole year and this part brought our game to the first places. Congratulations, you are only at the beginning of the journey and will be able to walk this path with us. This huge part of the game is called Waxchester. In this part of the game, you can get new products, complete weekly quests, drive a tractor, play mini games, and so on. And now a few tips from me personally on the arrangement of your farm.
So, in addition to ordinary buildings, there are legendary buildings, this is a fishing pier, a lumberjack, a dog, a cat, a vineyard, a hemp field, a peach tree, an olive tree.
For new players, I advise you to first buy the epic water tower, the epic SILO and also the legendary lumberjack card. With the help of a lumberjack, you can create boxes and trade your products on the market. To create your box, you need to go to the car.

Then you can create boxes of different capacities. After creating a box, the products automatically go to your WAX wallet, then you can list it and sell it. To open a box with products, you need to press BURN on it, after which the products from the box will fall into your barn. Make sure there is a place for him.

image.png
In order to better understand the products, I will publish the following tables. You can find the information you need for each animal and product.
In this table you can find data on animals, the time of product readiness depending on their rarity.

image.png
The following table will give you information on garden produce. Product maturation time, sales value and refill water cost.

Also, friends, I want to dwell separately on special animals in the game - a dog and a cat. At the moment they give SEST, but in the future you will be able to breed puppies and kittens. At the moment, sales are over and you can buy animals on the market. The dog is outside, the cat is in the house. They give you 1300 SEST every week.

image.png
The rest of the legendary buildings pier, trees, vineyards will be necessary for you first of all to complete the weekly quests.
So friends, if you have already mastered how you can make money on a farm, then I want to reveal to you the second part of this Waxchester game. You can get there from the main menu when loading the game or from the farm, for this you need to go to the bus. The game is possible solo or together with other users. With other users you can participate in tractor races, mini games, chat and so on.

image.png
Friends, once in Waxchester, it will be very difficult for you to figure out what to do here. Therefore, I will determine the key points for you, and then you will gradually explore this huge world and you will be able to explore it yourself. To begin with, I will publish a map where you can see all the main buildings. There are two units of each building. Buildings can be owned by players, when someone sells products there they get a percentage of the sale. Therefore, it is profitable to buy shares of the building and own at least a part of it. There are houses for living here, there are special buildings.

image.png
The first important part of Waxchester is tractor racing, mini games, communication with players. This side is only in development, at the moment you can ride a tractor for free, there are no mini games yet. In the future, the fate will be with the help of a fee with a special AUREUS token. You can get this token either by buying it on the exchange - it will be available in the future or using SEST and CBIT staking, you can do it at the bank. Do it now and you will receive this token every week. In the future, you will be able to see this token in your wallet.

image.png
I also want to mention an important part of the game - you can use SEST staking to pay for the CPU of your WAX wallet. This is very useful, having a lot of animals you will need it. So use it for your game.

image.png
Tractor races are currently free, but very soon you will be able to participate and earn AUREUS for winning races. You will be able to see yourself on the leaderboard. Therefore, wait for the players in the online version or ride solo, you can find a tractor in the garage. Enjoy while this game is free.

Other mini games will be added later and here we will see a bunch of new games. The developers also plan to add voice chat, you can chat with your friends.
Now I want to tell you about Waxchester's second assignment, product creation and weekly assignments. In each building, you will be able to receive products from farm products. After creating a product, it appears in your barn. And then you can either sell it from the barn, put it on the market and sell it for WAX. Created products are more profitable and more expensive than products from the farm. To understand where what products you can create, I will publish a special table where you can see in which building you can get products.

Now we are moving on to weekly quests. These are special tasks that are announced by the developers. At the moment there were olive tree, peach tree and shoes quests. Having collected a list of products, you complete this quest and receive either a special NFT or real products. This NFT is very rare and expensive. Therefore, completing quests is very profitable and all players are trying to collect a lot of products. You can learn about the quest from the developers. You can complete the quest in a special merchant building that you will find in the city

image.png
As soon as you collect the required amount of products in the barn, you can press the quest activation button and a new NFT will automatically appear in your wallet

image.png
So friends, I spent a short story that will be useful for new players. Now I would like to talk about future plans for the development of the game. First, it is planned to switch to new platforms to attract players - Solana and other platforms. This will bring in more players.
Secondly, it is planned to introduce boosters, these are special cards that increase the production of products on your farm. Currently, these boosters cannot be crafted and can only be bought from the market.

image.png
Third - mini games that will be available in the palace. This will allow you to earn a new AUREUS token, which will be very expensive.
Fourth, it is planned to introduce a special council that will consist of players with great DAO authority. This council will shape the further development of the game and make decisions on innovation.
Thank you friends for your interest in my article, I want to say a huge thank you to the developers of this game. I have been with this game since the very beginning, if you look at my blog you will see how many articles I have written about the game. If possible, I would really like to receive a peach tree as a prize, I did not have enough hours to complete this quest. If you have any questions regarding the game, I will be happy to help each player. See you in Waxchester!
