And the cross-promotional train keeps rolling. First, users were offered free 20 Zoning Permits in CityVille, and now, Zynga's gamers are being offered five free applications of Instant Grow in FarmVille if they're willing to spend enough time with the company's newest game - CastleVille - to reach Level 5.
You'll receive this promo via a pop-up like the one at right, giving you a link to head directly into CastleVille. Even if you were one of the game's earliest adopters, and have long passed Level 5 in the game, this window will still appear, and it looks like you'll need to click on the game to trigger the rewards into your Gift Box. For my game, as an example, my Gift Box only received the five free Instant Grow after I went into CastleVille and then reloaded my farm in FarmVille.
These Instant Grows look to only apply to growing crops, rather than trees or animals, but they'll still come in mighty handy if you're trying to catch up on goals - specifically those Bonus Challenges in Lighthouse Cove that may require two or three days of growing the same crop due to being limited on the amount of plots you can have in your game. Regardless of how you use these freebies, remember that once you get to Level 5 in CastleVille, you'll unlikely unlock rewards that we've yet to see across the rest of Zynga's catalog of games.

FarmVille English Countryside Co-Op Farming Jobs
If you've found yourself longing for some lengthy farming jobs with your friends in FarmVille's English Countryside, wait no longer, as three new Co-Op Farming Jobs have been added to the game this week. Two of these jobs are required to finish Chapters 6 & 7 of the English Countryside goals, dealing with the Village Faire and Henry's love for Lucy, but if you're looking for a complete guide to all three jobs, start right here.
First things first, these jobs function just as Co-Op Farming Jobs on your original farm, and can be started by hovering on the village map in the lower-right corner of the game's menu and then clicking on the Co-Op Farming icon that appears. You'll only have a limited amount of time to finish each job to receive the appropriate awards, and you'll be able to bring you friends in on the job with you, with their farming also being added to the overall tally.
We'll start with the Cornflower Contingency Job, which can be found behind the break.
The Cornflower Contingency:
Goal: Seed and harvest 1200 Cornflower, which can be planted for 60 coins and harvested for 110 coins 16 hours later.

Silver: Finish in under 1 days and 4 hours to receive 500 coins and 500 XP
Bronze: Finish in under 2 days to receive 425 coins and 450 XP
The Great Rabbit Caper:

FarmVille English Countryside - Hit Level 20 Fast Using These Nifty Tips
In order to play the much-anticipated FarmVille English Countryside expansion (said to arrive sometime this week), you'll need to be at level 20 before you'll be able to gain access. While this won't be a problem for long-time players, newbies or a more sporadic farmer might need to do some quick leveling up in order to gain access to England as soon as its available. If you find yourself in this situation, Games.com - The Blog! offers these tips to ensure an expedited trip to your new farm across the pond.
Plant Strawberries and/or Aloe Vera crops
Strawberries take four hours to mature and you will gain 1 XP every time they are harvested. Since you can plant and harvest strawberries up to six times in a 24-hour period (OK, you might lose a little sleep if you plant that often), you can rack up a bunch of XP points with these crops. The same plant-and-harvest-more-often technique also works with Aloe Vera crops, which take six hours to mature.
Buy Hay Bales
If you've ever wanted to create your own farm art using hay bales, this is the time to do it. Each hay bale you buy earns you 5 XP, so if you buy a bunch of them, you can gain XP like it's going out of style. Granted, this power leveling method can cost a lot of coin. If it's any consolation, you can sell the hay bales back for a fraction of the price you paid for them.
Trade in Collections
It took me a long time to really understand the value of Collections. I'd collect stuff and forget to trade it in. Then, I realized that, that was a mistake. Trade in the Country Kitsch, Feather or any of the other permanent in-game collections, and you'll score 250 XP (and 5,000 coins) a pop. Not bad, especially when feel the need, the need for speedy XP.
Focus on Easy Ribbon Achievements
FarmVille gives players ribbons as achievements and once you earn them, you'll also rewarded with a bundle of XP. Some of the easier ribbons to earn are Not Spoiled, Gifted!, which is earned by collecting gifts from friends (tho you'll need to hoard them until you earn the ribbons) and Local Celebrity, which simply requires you to have a certain number of friends. Plow a field, plant a cheap crop that yields the most XP (like Soybeans), then delete. Do it over again. This leveling up technique, often called the Soybean Method, is a little underhanded and sneaky and requires you to have lots of coins to burn. But, if you're desperate to gain XP quickly, it works.
Get more FarmVille friends ASAP
The more FarmVille friends you have, the more farms you'll be able to visit and the more XP you'll be able to earn. Each farm you visit can give you up to 5 XP -- so the more friends you have, well, you can do the math.
Expand!
That's right -- if you've got the coins, make sure you expand your farm ASAP. These upgrades will give you more room for crops and every expansion you buy will also yield a certain number of experience points. On that note:
Store Buildings and Decorations, and use extra space for crops
Crops yield XP, decor and many buildings* don't. (*The Greenhouse is an exception -- see the last leveling tip below)
Build the Greenhouse, like, right now
If you've been putting off building the Greenhouse -- don't. It costs five coins to buy the frame and then needs a total of 12 building supplies (four of each: nails, boards, bricks) to get started creating hybrid crops. Why are hybrid crops so great? Two of them in particular -- the Strasberry (a cross between a strawberry and rasberry) and the Purple Tomatoes take a mere 2 hours to grow and yield double the XP of a regular crop.

Use your Gift Box to Fill Your Farm - FarmVille English Countryside Tips and Tricks
With the release of the English Countryside in FarmVille comes the interesting issue of farm-specific items. That is, if you purchase an item from the store, place it from your gift box, or in any other way add an item to one farm or the other, there currently is no way to move that item to your other farm.
For example, if you were to purchase a Dogwood Tree for your Home Farm, and then decide that it would be better suited on your farm in the English Countryside, you'll simply have to purchase a second Dogwood Tree in England - you can't pick up the Dogwood Tree and move it across farms.
However, this doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. While, yes, purchasing Farm Cash animals or decorations does take on a bit more seriousness, as you have to be absolutely certain which farm you'd like to place that item on permanently, the simple ability to being able to take most items from your Gift Box across the pond (and back again) does present many new opportunities.
First and foremost, you've got a lot of new animals buildings to stock in the English Countryside, what with the Horse Stable, Sheep Pen, Chicken Coop and Dairy Barn all being currently available. What better way to stock those buildings, for free, than to use your Home Farm to do so. In addition, what better way to create a full forest of trees than to use extra Mystery Seedlings than you may not otherwise choose to grow?
All you'll need to do is use the buildings from your Home Farm, or even News Feed posts, to your advantage. If you're at a state (as many farmers are), that you have an unneeded amount of Mystery Eggs, as an example, you can take those Mystery Eggs over to the English Countryside, and open them there. If you receive chickens, but you Home Farm's Chicken Coop is full, voila - you've found instant inhabitants for your new Coop.
The same can be said for your Nursery Barn. If you grow your baby animals up into otherwise uninteresting Cows or Horses that you would normally just sell, you can leave those animals in your Gift Box until you travel back over to England and place them into your Dairy Barn or Horse Stable.
You can use News Feed posts in the same way. Claim free Calves, Foals, and even Horses from friends who have completed tasks on their own farms, and you'll have animals that can be used to populate your English Countryside farm without spending a virtual dime. These will give you profit for the extent of their presence on your new farm, that is, if you choose to have that farm be the "active farm," and your other farm "Paused."
Either way, it should be noted that there are some items that simply can't be used on both farms, even if you have them in your Gift Box, and are ready to use them. You'll know if an item can't be used on your English Countryside farm if you open your Gift Box and see "Locked to Home" in red font, like in the image below.
Of course, it will be up to each individual player as to how many items to dedicate to the English Countryside farm, as opposed to the Home Farm, but these are just a few tips to get you started at catching your English farm up to speed with the one that you're used to using everyday.

Use Coins, Decorations to Level Up Fast - FrontierVille Cheats and Tips
Leveling up in FrontierVille can be a drag, especially in the later stages of the game. Going about your daily Goals and other chores, it could take months to jump from one level to the next. But there is a way to give your experience a hefty boost, but it takes quite a bit of Coin to do it. That said, we only recommend this strategy to veteran players looking to inch towards the max level that much faster.
Decorations, while pretty additions to your Homestead and blah, blah, blah, have the added bonus of providing players with XP upon purchase. In fact, there are a few decorations that give up quite the nice chunk of XP. Here are three decorations that, if bought in bulk, could send you soaring to triple-digit levels and beyond in no time:
Silver Carriage:
Cost: 475,000 Coins
Experience: 5000 XP
Sell Value: 100,000 Coins
1 XP = 75 Coins
Silver Carriage Smoker Flowery Can Smoker:
Cost: 38,000 Coins
Experience: 400 XP
Sell Value: 8,000 Coins
1 XP = 75 Coins
Flowery Can:
Cost: 9,500 Coins
Experience: 95 XP
Sell Value: 5,000 Coins
1 XP = 47.3 Coins
These three decorations are all ideal for boosting your XP, but by far the Flowery Can is most efficient when it comes to XP per Coins. However, that amounts to quite a bit of mouse clicks. If you're up for the click-fest, buying 16,842 Flowery Pots could get you from Level 99 to Level 100, for instance. But that would cost 160 million Coins. Hey, we did say this strategy is for veteran players. Either way, give it a shot to send you over the fence from one level to another.

FarmVille Sheep Breeding Upgrade - Receive New Patterns by Leveling Up
While we told you that Sheep Breeding in FarmVille would be given the Pig Breeding treatment, with levels and new patterns to unlock, we weren't exactly sure of the feature's release date. Turns out - it's now! The next time you log into your farm, you'll see a pop-up like the one above, letting you know that the upgrade has launched on your farm.
To ensure that you have at least one male Ram to breed sheep, you'll be given another Brutus the Ram for free, and will immediately go into placement mode to place the Ram where you'd like on your farm. From there, the actual breeding process works the same way as before, but your results when breeding will have changed. That is, you'll earn points for each Lamb successfully bred (right now it's three points), and will also earn points if you put a Lamb up for adoption and a friend claims it.
When you breed enough Sheep, you'll go up levels, earning free bonuses like Bottles and Love Potions along the way. Once you reach Level 5, you'll start unlocking new patterns. Level five is the Tiger Stripe Ram. You'll be able to track your progress towards each new pattern on the "Progress" tab of the Sheep Pen, and here's what you can expect to unlock over time:
Level 10 - Flower Ram
Level 15 - Racing Stripe Ram
Level 20 - Heart Ram
Level 25 - Checkered Ram
Level 30 - ZigZag (Lightning) Ram
Please note that the name of the Level 30 pattern is still up in the air, but it looks like Lightning or a "ZigZag" pattern to us. As with Pig Breeding, when you hit any of these milestone levels, you'll actually receive a free Ram with that pattern, to allow you to get right to breeding more Lambs that look the same.
With the new 50/50 chance for pattern inheritance, at least you (hopefully) won't waste too many Bottles or Love Potions in trying to breed more flower Lambs, for instance. Even if you don't end up with the kind of Lamb you wait, remember that you've still earned breeding points, so it's never really a waste.
It's possible that more patterns will be added to this Sheep Breeding upgrade in the future, and if that's the case, we'll make sure to let you know.

FarmVille English Countryside and Lighthouse Cove Land Expansions Now Available for Coins
It's that time again farmers. Time for you to bug your friends (or even strangers) and ask them to help you out in FarmVille so that you can expand your land. Here, we see a new land expansion being released for coins in English Countryside, along with two new coin expansion options in Lighthouse Cove.
First, for the English Countryside expansion, you'll be able to expand to the "English County," 30x30 expansion for 5 million coins. Yes, that's 5 million, which just so happens to be the same price for the previous expansion, the 28x28 English Domain. I mention it because typically expansions become more expensive as we go along. So, technically we're receiving a break here. You'll need to have 30 surveyors to unlock the option to purchase for coins, so you'll need to ask current FarmVille neighbors to help you out until you reach that number.
As for the Lighthouse Cove, the two expansions are the 24x24 Beachfront Property and 26x26 Shoreline Acres. If you want to purchase them for Farm Cash, they're currently on sale for 60 and 70 Farm Cash, respectively, but you can now purchase each for coins - Beachfront Property costs 2 million coins, while Shoreline Acres costs 2.5 million coins.
Remember, you'll need to unlock these coin options too, by simply adding new neighbors to your game. For my own game, I only have to add a single neighbor for Beachfront Property, but you may have to add more than that (or even none at all), depending on your current neighbor count.
There's not a time limit on when these coin options will go away, so feel free to save up coins if you don't have that much on hand right now (or, if you plan on saving those coins for the many decorative items that are sure to launch during the Winter Holiday season).

Repairing the Broken Super Combine - FarmVille English Countryside
If you've made it past the Bon Voyage Party and Duke's Airship Goals in FarmVille, you're now likely staring at the green rolling hills surrounding your second farm in the English Countryside. Once there, of the things you'll notice is the brown Super Combine that has seen better days. This brings you one of your first challenges in the English Countryside - repairing this Super Combine to its former glorious (and need I say functional?) state.
While you may expect to have to gather 25 or more Vehicle Parts to build this Super Combine from scratch, luckily this is a case where "less is more," and you'll only need 5 vehicle parts in total to repair the Combine to be functional (don't worry, if you saved up more than that in preparation for the English Countryside, you'll need them later).
Once the Super Combine is complete, it will look very similar to your Home Farm Super Combine, if you stuck with the original red model. This Super Combine starts at Level 1, but can be upgraded fully to level 5 using different amounts of Vehicle Parts, if you choose to build a Garage on your English Farm (check out our guide). Here's the rundown, from level 1 to level 5:
Level 2: 2 Vehicle Parts
Level 3: 5 Vehicle Parts
Level 4: 10 Vehicle Parts
Level 5: 15 Vehicle Parts
As with the first Super Combine back on your Home Farm, each time you level up the vehicle, your Combine will then be able to plow, harvest, and seed (all in one click) a larger area of land, starting at a 2x2 square (so, four squares at a time), all the way up to a 4x4 square, or 16 squares total. If you don't happen to have the 32 Vehicle Parts on hand to upgrade fully to level 5, you can ask for Vehicle Parts by clicking on the Ask for Parts button inside your Garage. You'll be able to send out individual gift requests to your friends asking for parts.
Remember, these Vehicle Parts will go into your gift box, and can be used on either your Home Farm or your English Farm. The vehicles that you're upgrading however, are specific to that particular farm. That is, for right now, there's no way to move items from one farm to another. Once they're out of your gift box, they're specific to the farm you placed them on.

This Super Combine starts at Level 1, but can be upgraded fully to level 5 using different amounts of Vehicle Parts, if you choose to build a Garage on your English Farm (check out our guide). Here's the rundown, from level 1 to level 5:
Level 2: 2 Vehicle Parts
Level 3: 5 Vehicle Parts
Level 4: 10 Vehicle Parts
Level 5: 15 Vehicle Parts
As with the first Super Combine back on your Home Farm, each time you level up the vehicle, your Combine will then be able to plow, harvest, and seed (all in one click) a larger area of land, starting at a 2x2 square (so, four squares at a time), all the way up to a 4x4 square, or 16 squares total. If you don't happen to have the 32 Vehicle Parts on hand to upgrade fully to level 5, you can ask for Vehicle Parts by clicking on the Ask for Parts button inside your Garage. You'll be able to send out individual gift requests to your friends asking for parts.
Remember, these Vehicle Parts will go into your gift box, and can be used on either your Home Farm or your English Farm. The vehicles that you're upgrading however, are specific to that particular farm. That is, for right now, there's no way to move items from one farm to another. Once they're out of your gift box, they're specific to the farm you placed them on.
