Banished vs Village Life
Banished
Banished is a medieval-themed city-building simulation that can be pretty difficult to get into at first mainly due to its many nuances and lack of a comprehensive tutorial. But once you get the general idea of how things work (we'd recommend starting with easy mode), you'll start to truly appreciate the game as the challenge that it is. In some way, this game is quite similar to SimCity in many ways with the obvious difference being the themes and the lack of piping, waste management or electricity. Different maps will pose a different challenge and of course, the bigger your village is, the more stuff you'll need to manage. Although it does have some strategy elements to it - mainly in the form of village management, the game is not a war game. There is no fighting involved but your villagers will die from natural causes or disasters like illnesses or famine.However, once you've gotten the hang of the game, Banished becomes less of a punishing game and a bit more boring due to the same-y looking buildings and the soundtrack. When it comes to replayability, we'd say that the game has maybe tens of hours in it before you'll get bored and move on to the next game... and this play duration may be drastically reduced if you happen to be a pro SimCity player.
So, in short, Banished will appear to be a somewhat frustrating game at first, but once you've gotten the hang of it, the game might gradually becomes boring mainly because there is nothing else to do except to expand, expand and expand! However, we can't say that we didn't enjoy playing the game, and even for the shorter play duration it has to offer, as opposed to triple A city-building titles, the game is worth the money it costs.
Village Life
Village Life is a fun, free-to-play village simulation game whereby you look after your small village of people. Assign tasks to your adult villagers to gather resources and supplies for developing your village or trading. You will also need to keep your villagers happy by fulfilling their needs, which in turn will allow you to unlock a whole new range of resources and items.The best part about this game though is its intricate "reproduction system". Here, you can hook-up your adult villager with another villager of the opposite gender from your friends' village. You can even be a bit more selective about finding a partner just so you can get a baby with really useful skill for your village. Sometimes, villagers may even join your village if they like what they see!
Village Life is a very unique game - at least among free-to-play games - that you can easily play via Facebook. The game allows you to literally build a civilization, albeit a tribal one, from a single couple. Sounds fun? Well, play Village Life now!
