Avatar
When a player first begins FarmVille, they are asked to create an avatar. They must choose male or female. Then they have to design their player, and they have the options to change its facial features, hair, and clothes. The farmer has the option to change the farmer's appearance anytime they want throughout the game.

Farming
In FarmVille, the goal of the game is to own a big, thriving farm and become the envy of all your FarmVille neighbors. This can happen by leveling up. You level up by planting crops, buying items, and visiting your neighbors farms. The main way to level up is by planting and harvesting crops and making money to buy buildings and decorations for their farm. After a farmer becomes more successful, they can own bigger farms and become higher levels.

Neighbors
Another way to level up fast is to help out your neighbors daily. Helping out somebody's farm earns you 11 XP points and about 30 coins. You can also send free gifts to your neighbors. Doing this will earn you no reward, except maybe your neighbor will send back a Thank You Gift.
