How do you build Farming sim like Harvest Moon and Stardew Valley, but simplify it into text game?

Why though? Just git gud and learn to make a real game instead.

Text as in Dwarf Fortress or as in Zork?
The former: Do the same as you'd do with any other game, but represent entities with ASCII-symbols instead of graphics. Probably both easier and more sensible for this type of thing.
The latter: Write general descriptions of rooms and associate certain states with certain words.
For example:
You're on a field. There's [$PLANT] growing here. It seems to be [$HEALTH_STATE]. It's [$HARVEST_TIMER]. Look into how Evennia represents rooms and stuff for an in-depth example.

Zork.

I want to build a text-game but more closely related to a MUD. Basically I want to create something people will play so there's fun player interactions like in HellMOO. Can someone give me ideas in terms of gameplay and things this game would need to have to maintain a small but active playerbase?
