Games like Hay Day: unhurried, ad-free alternatives
If you are looking for an alternative to Hay Day, start by naming what you want to keep, like producing goods or caring for animals, and what you want less of, like notifications and interruptions.
See how time works
In some games production continues while you are away. In others it only moves forward on the next day of the in-game calendar. Play a full cycle to see which one fits your routine.
Two alternatives without forced ads
Fazendinha Retrô offers farming and a market in the browser, moving forward with the in-game calendar. On iPhone, Pocket Acres states it has no ads and includes optional purchases. For comparison, Supercell describes Hay Day's ads as optional in exchange for rewards.
Names of other games, stores and companies mentioned belong to their owners. Fazendinha Retrô is not affiliated with them; details come from their official pages as of the update date.
