Unexplainable value
I could care less about tractors, I really don't like farming. There's no plot, there's no story, there's hardly any direction at all in the game, and there's no way to win.
And yet, I've spent almost 50 hours playing it. I've probably got over 200 in the last one. It's hard to describe, other than that you're doing very little, over and over repetitively, but it's very... zen. Things have to be done in a certain way, in a certain order, to get the desired result, and a lot of those things involve driving back and forth in careful lines across fields of various sizes.
It's like sailing, it's not loud, it's not active, but it's busy, and there's enough going on to help clear your mind after a rough day, or a boring one, or whatever.
I can not explain the draw, honestly. I tried the first one because I read a review exactly like this one, and it was on sale for $10, and I found myself in the same place. I've spent more time on this than on any other game, period, and I'll probably go back and do it again tomorrow.
