is a farming life simulation game, and as any farmer knows, crops must be protected from pesky crows at all costs. Just like in real life, crows sometimes appear on the in-game farm and eat valuable crops.
And while players can scare them off on their own, they're not always around to do so. That's where scarecrows come in, literally standing in for the farmer and spooking off the birds that want to make off with the tasty crops.
Placing a scarecrow on a field protects a circle of 17 by 17 squares around it, keeping crows away as long as they're out. Besides the standard scarecrow design, the game has several «rarecrows,» rare versions of scarecrows that serve as functional decor on the farm. Counting the basic design, there are 10 different scarecrows to collect, and some are more difficult to acquire than others.
The basic scarecrow is the most common type of scarecrow in It looks like a typical scarecrow,wearing the standard scarecrow uniform of overalls, wide-brimmed hat, and hay emerging from its sleeves.
It may be basic, but it gets the job done just as well as the fancy rarecrows, since the appearance of a scarecrow doesn't affect its effectiveness (except for one single rarecrow).
