It's far from ideal, and scrolling is particularly funky, but you can use a phone or tablet to play Big Farm but not using your device's native browser as it doesn't support Flash.

You need to install a browser app with Flash built in to it

Android
I use Puffin on an android tablet (nexus 7) and android phone (nexus 5) to play Big Farm. The Photon Browser works too, but I prefer Puffin.

Both have free, ad supported versions, or inexpensive ad free ones

iOS (iPhones or iPad)
iSwifter seems to be the favourite for iPad and iPhone but there are others too including an iOS version of Puffin

Kindle
Kindles are Android based with their own proprietary variation. There was a version of Photon for Kindle but it was withdrawn. However there is this information on the Amazon Forums

I also found not very good if out unless your phone has very good EE connection. I took phone but kept losing connection and it ate up a lot of my pay as you go data so can be expensive unless you have unlimited data

Yes, where possible I try to get a wi-fi connection and not use mobile data.

Thanks for the info.

I think that there should be a mobile version of this game since most players would have a wider access then.

nafaru did say they were looking into making one but you would need to have different farms on the different platforms. But since then she has said that even that has been set aside

I am playing the game on my windows tablet. I didn't have to download anything to play. I just needed a wireless connection.

At one time nafaru did say they were working on an app but has since said it is on hold. But even if they did develop it, it would have to count as a different server. This means you couldn't access your current farm with it but would have to start a new one from level 1, so wouldn't fit your needs anyway :(

I don't think there any tablets that natively support Flash Player

It isn't complicated though. You need to install a flash enabled browser, which installs like any other app in moments

I use Puffin on an android tablet (nexus 7) and android phone (nexus 5) to play Big Farm. The Photon Browser works too, but I prefer Puffin.

Both have free, ad supported versions, or inexpensive ad free ones



This is what i found
There might be something else too. Windows i don't know

Found this link too, if it helps

Thanks a ton Dara...although the server is pretty slow but still it works on my Samsung tab. I will check out the photon browser as well.

Have you ever thought of making the Big Farm available on IPad? I think this would be awesome...The farm games they have on there are so lame...I have even quit the farm games on Facebook for the Big Farm!!!
