Game Installation Files
The single player game can be played on any Windows or Apple computer with the latest version of Adobe AIR installed. This can be downloaded from the Harman website.
If using an Apple computer, please check the "Known Issues" section at the bottom of the Harman download page.
When Adobe AIR is installed, download and install the game:
Game Only (AIR file, 1.3 MB)
Game + Video Tutorials (AIR file, 63 MB)
The video tutorials can be viewed here if the Game Only installation is selected. Please note that in the tutorials drag and drop rather than the default click select method is used when manipulating game assets.
For Windows computer users, an alternative is to download the African Farmer runtime bundle, which contains all files (including the Adobe AIR files) required to run the African Farmer game. This can be useful for users who do not have the Administrator access necessary to install programs on their computer.
Windows Runtime Bundle (ZIP file, 82 MB)
After download, uncompress the zip file and double click ‘African Farmer.exe’ to start the game.
