Farm Town Waterfalls A Farm Design Optical Illusion

Making Waterfalls in Farm Town is a fun design, and it definitely is not one that is easily accessible in the game. Basically, it is a design optical illusion that allows you to layer pieces of the river tile in such a way that it looks as if there is a waterfall. Here is an image of a waterfall in action on someone's farm.



So how do we go about layering these pieces, and which ones do we use in order to make the waterfall? Follow these steps below.

How to create a Waterfall in Farm Town


  1. Take a river corner, preferably one shaped like so: /\

  2. Place four dirt paths on top of it in order to cover it

  3. Farm Town Waterfall
  4. Place another river corner on top of the dirt paths, slightly off center from the first river corner so you get the waterfall look

  6. Remove the dirt from the river corner

  8. Repeat as many times depending on how tall you would like your waterfall

  2. Place dirt paths on top of the river corner, like so:
    Farm Town Ocean

  3. Continue placing dirt paths on top of the corner until you have four across it. This will prepare your lake for the next piece Farm Town Ocean

  4. Now that your dirt is in place, you will be creating your Farm Town ocean by setting another river corner on top of the dirt paths like so Farm Town Ocean

  5. Your next step will be to move the dirt paths back on top of your newly placed water so that you can repeat the process

Finally, check out this video if you have any questions about how it all goes together in the end.


Or you can check out the following video, which details a little more about how to use main river pieces than just corners. This can be a very effective way to cover large areas with water, but in my opinion it is not quite as nice looking.
