# Sunflower Land Introduction and Strategy By [Harambe Geek](https://paragraph.com/@harambe-geek) ยท 2022-09-22 --- **What is Sunflower Land?** Sunflower Land is a blockchain farm game. Players farm their land, extract resources, and trade them on the open market. The game uses the Polygon network, which is itself a Layer2 sidechain of the ethereum blockchain. The game was developed by Thought Farm Pty Ltd, a company based in Sydney, Australia. Sunflower Land tries to recreate the conditions of a real market economy. So the developers of the game are very concerned about the supply and demand of resources in the game. Scarcity is intrinsic and hard work will be rewarded. Each player starts the game with a piece of land, which they can build from the bottom. They can also invest their money in the game to progress quickly and stay ahead of other players. ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/6096fef38c97184838dc23bb3102f1db3280a98b163f0232f6e6960f0cf8af8f.png) **How do you start playing Sunflower Land today?** Sunflower Land is currently in beta mode and players are invited to sign up, get their free farm and start playing the game immediately. 1.First, you need to join the Sunflower Land Discord channel and verify it. 2.Once you have been verified, go to the Sunflower Land dapp. 3.
