These tips will help you pass any level of Farm Heroes and are written by our expert player Beatrice.
1. Watching videos....
When watching a video or Farm Heroes Saga, watch closely the area you are having the problem in, not the color of the crops...
These games have patterns..in some you need to get the sheep first, next one maybe leave the fireflies until last and the board will get them for you and the bulls need to run a certain way first and then down and then back up...
If the game has water, you may need to concentrate on making water and the board will get your crops...watch the bombs and see what removes them...there are a few levels that has a pattern of allowing a shovel to prepare a match and that is the only way I have found those levels to work..look for these sort of patterns..
2. Lives and beans....
This seems to be the question asked most " Why do I not get lives? "..
Beans and lives are the same thing..If you have 5 lives and I send you a life, it turns into a bean..If you have played a game and lost a life and ask for some using the plus in the upper left corner, and I send you one, it will be a life and you can refresh your game when you run out of lives and collect the lives you need...
When you stop playing for the day/night, just ask about 3-4 times for lives and when you get on the next day, refresh/reload your games and collect all the beans..Only collect all if you have beans, otherwise if you need lives you won't have any..You have a white envelope that will hold your lives on the top row while you are playing. when you run out just click on envelope and take 5 more..
3. Shovels...
When you open your game and finish sending and collecting requests, before you hit the play button, you will see a shovel emblem, hit that and a board comes up inviting you to pay 250 beans and get 3 shovel boosters, if you are quick you can do that again and get 6 and then play..You can also open more games on different tabs being sure you have no shovels and get more and they all add up on the last board before you play..
Just open several tabs and open the game on each one, then go through each game buying shovels. When you get to the last game you will have lots.
4. Using boosters.
Using boosters is a matter of choice, I personally don't use them unless I see no other way of completing a level after trying many different ways. Boosters rejuvenate every 24 hours so if you feel you need to use them do.
5. Navigate to a lower level.
Scrolling back is so time consuming ..I do this...
Go to Farm Club and use the arrows to go back to about where you think the level is and run your mouse over the animal and it will tell you which level you collected it on..Find where you need to be, and I always open that game and then quit the game using the arrow in the upper left hand corner and then I go back and find the level I need in that area ..if you refresh, you will go back to your own game ending and have to do all this again.
6. Make use of unwanted crops,
If your board is getting full of unwanted crops and you feel it would be to your advantage to get rid of them, use your dog to remove them and good crops will fall and a lot of them will make matches on the way down. .I would do this if I have a lot of points mixed in with the unwanted crops...
You can only use the dog once a day so you have to be careful about when to use it.
7. Chicks or dragons and eggs,
Don't forget to keep the hen moving by matching next to her or hit her with a shovel, and if you have a lot of eggs gathering up, just go ahead and make them all be 1 as they are taking a lot of room up on the board.. Don't forget to crack the egg with a shovel if need be to get a chick or dragon late in game.
8. Firecrackers
Remember work those firecrackers when you have them on a game as they are a great helper..they will open flowers, move hens, take high point crops, stir the water and make it fly, and probably more.
9. Rob the rabbit.
10. Frogs
Are aggravating and fun too, notice the color as that is what they will slurp up when you make them hop so plan carefully, but they help also..
11. Rancid levels..
Try using shovels to make some of your moves as the more regular moves you have left at the end of the game, the more stars you will have..
I am still working that out in my mind as crops keep falling so it is hard to figure the score...
You are given the opportunity to spend some beans and get some help on scoring on Rancid..I have gotten at least one star using free and 1 star using the +2 so can't say how that really works either.
12. Making 5 in a line.
This will gather all of one crop..For an across match you have to really watch the board and look two rows up for the crop you need then you can take a shovel and maneuver a crop into place and then take a shovel and let the match drop in order to avoid losing the points on the other crops ..
In making a vertical, match which is harder and needs at least 2 shovels and careful watching...
Sometimes you can move a crop in the row next to it to let what you need drop down but you do have to move sideways which will cause you to lose build up points on the other crops, so plan carefully on a vertical match
13..How to herd the bulls in Farm Heroes Saga...
To guide the bull up...match above...down..match down...across..you need a vertical match or on the same row...if you will just use one game as a practice game, you will see how this works, and it was helpful to me on some levels to watch a video and only concentrate on the pattern as everyone's crops will be different but poppies in same place.
14. Water and water pots/buckets..
Matching next to the pot gets the water to boiling/brimming and another match will get the water to flying but did you know that you can let 3 or 4 pots get brimming and then hit with a shovel and water scatters and makes matches.. Some games the more water you make the better..

16. .Fireflies..
17. .Companion helper..
9. Rob the rabbit.
They have recently named him and that is what he does, he steals carrots and will mess up a move for you but also helps make a move when he hops over to the next carrot.
If you make a match by him, he is stunned and that will give you 3 moves to gather more carrots..
10. Frogs
Are aggravating and fun too, notice the color as that is what they will slurp up when you make them hop so plan carefully, but they help also..

15. How to move the sheep in Farm Heroes Saga
White Sheep. they will land on the spot the move is made...Some levels you need to make the hay by matching a seed with water, and by watching board carefully, it is possible to get as many as 3 jumping at once...Black Sheep..when they are mixed together on the board , so far, the white sheep jump over the black sheep which is good as the black sheep eat the hay...and black sheep alone just eat hay.
16. .Fireflies..
Matching twice by each one but in order for them to fly away, they all need to be lit up so if necessary , hit them with a shovel.
17. .Companion helper..
Watch the helper points and it gets to where you just need a few points for him to help you again, and you have a shovel, just pluck the points out of a place you can't make a move and it won't mess up a move..Remember a 1 is actually a 2 and and 3 is a 4 and so on, and it will help you get your crops..
