Frisky Mongoose

As reported by Touch Arcade, Tag Games has released their lifestyle simulation game Astro Ranch to the iPhone App Store.

The game sees you crash-landing into a colorful neighborhood populated by friendly aliens who are eager to help you create a life for yourself in their world. This “life” entails a place for you to call home, a storage barn to hold your items, and a plot of land on which you can grow crops and raise livestock.

But before you think this is some FarmVille knock-off on the iPhone, take note of the game’s additional features, like the ability to have conversations with the local population, go fishing, shake trees for items, and more.

Graphically, the game resembles something along the lines of Animal Crossing, and the game’s touch controls should make it a viable option even for younger gamers.

If you’d like to join these aliens in their peaceful way of life, take your $2.99 over to
