All because hybrids produce not just one crystal, but two at a time (one of each kind). There is one important feature about slimes in Slime Rancher – you can cross-breed them to get other types of slimes that can send your farming business to unprecedented heights. Maybe it’s time to get a fruit garden or a chicken coop? Grow and cross-breed slimes, but beware of turning them into man eaters!

Those are already more profitable in terms of crystal production, but also more capricious in terms of food. So you’d better go out and look a little bit farther to discover more serious candidates – blue and violet slimes. But if you fill your rancho with pink slimes, you might face another problem – they will start running away because they don’t like to live in a crowd. Their plorts are rather cheap, and you really need a lot of them if you count on any kind of a decent budget. Pink slimes are not the best choice to base your enterprise on. Don’t forget to pick up some fruits and vegetables to feed to them – once its stomach is full, a slime will produce a plort (looking like a crystal of a respective color) that can be sold for profit. They are not very picky and you won’t have a lot of trouble with them.

So far, you will only have access to pink ones. Your very first task is to gather a batch of slimes that will become the first dwellers on your farm. The neighborhood is filled with various resources, including fruits and vegetables, chickens and of course slimes. So, shall we begin? Welcome to your own slime rancho!Īt the start of the game, you’ll find yourself in a strange area that doesn’t look anything like those fields and meadows you would expect to see in any other farming simulator. You’ll have to gather and domesticate them, create all conditions for them to be healthy and happy on your rancho and motivate them to produce as many plorts as possible by giving them the right food. Slime Rancher is a farming simulator that takes the whole concept of such games outside the boundaries of Earth and invites you to try your hand at raising slimes on a distant planet.
