In 2009, Harvest Moon developers Marvelous Entertainment eventually released their own farming social network game, Bokujo Monogatari, for the Japanese site Mixi. Wired included Happy Farm in its list of 'The 15 Most Influential Games of the Decade' at #14, for its major influence on social network gaming, particularly for having 'inspired a dozen Facebook clones,' the largest being Zynga's FarmVille. Happy Farm went on to inspire many more farming social network games, including FarmVille, Farm Town, Country Story, Barn Buddy, Sunshine Ranch, and Happy Harvest, as well as parodies such as Jungle Extreme and Farm Villain. ДЄ number of later games have used similar game mechanics, such as Sunshine Farm, Happy Farmer, Happy Fishpond, and Happy Pig Farm. Because of its popularity, the game's host, Tencent QQ, capped the number of new players per day at 2 million. Approximately 15 million urban white-collar workers were estimated to have spent more than five hours a day on Happy Farm. ДЄt the height of its popularity, there were 23 million daily active users, logging on to the game at least every 24 hours.

Happy Farm was discontinued as of September 25, 2017.
