About Orwell's Animal Farm
In Orwell's Animal Farm, the animals have fought off their exploitative human masters. Now they're in charge. Assign their tasks, manage their resources, choose their laws, and direct their propaganda. Determine which of the animals will make sacrifices and which will be "more equal than others."
George Orwell's 1945 novella was a scathing critique of totalitarianism in the early days of the Soviet Union. Since then, it has spoken to people of many ideologies in countries around the world. It offers a powerful awareness of how power can be abused – and of how generation after generation seeks a more just and equal society, where the many do not suffer at the hands of the few.
Orwell's Animal Farm brings the familiar characters and situations to the medium of a game, and to the context of 2020. Depending on how you play, you may encounter situations very close to those in the book, or others influenced by events Orwell never lived to see.
Play it to explore a classic tale from inside. Play it to try your hand at running the farm – or because you dream of spreading Animalism across the world. Play it because you've always wanted to oversee a construction project by a herd of cows. Play it because Boxer deserved better.

Pleasantly Surprised
Feb 8, 2021 I've been known to play interactive fiction games from time to time, which is what I expected when downloading this game. In most interactive fiction games, choice is little more than an illusion, but in this game, even mundane choices can impact the direction of the game. The addition of the journal was a stroke of genius. Without it, I would probably have set the game aside after my first completion. Since it's based off of an existing story, I had assumed that there would be little deviation from the plot, not so. There more than a few different endings, and the journal lists what has to happen to trigger this ending or that achievement, though it does not tell you how to get there, which isn't always obvious. The entire story is narrated, and the voice actor is perfect. Usually I mute games with excessive spoken dialogue, but I find that it adds to the overall enjoyability of this game.more -
Dec 21, 2020 Have not beaten yet but fun if you love Animal Farm. You make decisions season by season that run parallel to the issues facing the animals in the novel. Good art decent voice overs and overall just okay really basic. Pilgrims better and offered more interesting choicesmore -
½ a good game
Dec 12, 2020 I like that the game is inviting a new generation into understand the dangers of socialism, but the game itself feels only half finished. The “game” aspects aren’t intuitive and not properly explained. Maybe it was rushed out? I think $2.99 or even $1.99 would be more appropriate for iOS. It’s a cool way to experience a book I haven’t read in many years, but it just doesn’t seem polished enough for $6.99more -

Dec 13, 2020 Orwell's novel + Reins = a multy ending grimm and fascinating storytelling experience... Who side will you take? What moral will you follow? Hard choices ahead and still a reflection on what is happening in the world today...

Dec 11, 2020 I'd recommend having the handbook not spoil the whole plot :(

What’s Groovy
Really enjoying this take on the novel. In terms of gameplay it reminds me a lot of 80 Days. I'm not sure how enjoyable it would be without having read the book but maybe it will encourage people to read it. The narration by Abubakur Salim is stunning. Would have been nice to have voices for all dialogue but that's a minor niggle
