Zynga's FarmVille is possibly the biggest game of all time, with an astounding 80 million people playing it every single month. But it's not the only farming game in town. In fact, Facebook is full of plenty of agricultural simulators that are just as fun and addictive as FarmVille. So, if FarmVille isn't your thing, or you're simply looking for something new in a farming game, here are five titles you need to play.
1. Country Story
A refreshing change of pace from all of the FarmVille clones currently on Facebook, Country Story provides a compelling quest-based structure that ensures you'll be doing much more than just watering plants or tilling soil. And, in the tradition of all of Playfish's games, it also sports some of the slickest graphics of any game on Facebook.

2. Fantasy Kingdoms
Fantasy Kingdoms is like most of the farming games on Facebook in a lot of ways, but it also features one important difference: its setting. Instead of a boring, old traditional farm, the game transports you to a fantasy world filled with magic. Think of it as FarmVille meets Harry Potter.
3. My Vineyard
While it may sound like some sort of business simulator, My Vineyard actually bears much more in common with a farming game. The only difference is, instead of growing corn or carrots, you're growing grapes and turning them into wine. The gameplay is very similar to most farming games out there, albeit with an interesting change of setting.
4. Tiki Farm
Like My Vineyard, Tiki Farm changes up the setting, this time letting you grow your crops in a tropical climate. But it also does much more than that, offering subtle changes to the well-worn farming game formula to create a much more engaging experience. You'll have to water your crops often, keep an eye on the marketplace in order to sell your goods for the highest possible price, and keep on the lookout for the ever present possibility of a bug infestation.
