Big Barn World vs Sheltered
Big Barn World
Big Barn World is a pretty unique farm simulation game, mainly because it takes social aspect of social farming simulations to a whole new level. In this game, you'll not only need to plant, grow and harvest your own crops; you will also get to raise a variety of adorable animals. All the harvest and animal produce you obtain will then be sold to earn money. There are many farm plots you can unlock as you level up while certain plots are reserved for "members" of the Farmers with Benefits club.The really unique part about the game though is not the fact that you can visit your friends' farms - that has been done multiple times across most farm sims - but the fact that you can plant special seeds in specifically-designated friend plots on your friends' farms. You won't be able to take care of the crop as your friend will do that for you, but when the crop matured and it sold, both you and your friend will get a cut of the profits!
Big Barn World may not be as popular as Farmville or any of Facebook's more popular farm sims, but the game offers something different; something more social that will do well with players with plenty of actively gaming friends. If this sounds like just the game for you, be sure to give it a try. The game is available on both Android and iOS.
Sheltered
Sheltered is, in some way, a mixture of the survival management gameplay that Fallout Shelter has popularized and the emotional rollercoaster that This War of Mine puts you through, all rolled into a single game. In this game, you play as the protector of a family of four who managed to make their way to a deserted shelter in a dreary, post-apocalyptic world. Like Fallout Shelter, you can plan, build and expand your bunker to accommodate more facilities and resources you've scavenged from your daily expeditions above ground.However, like This War of Mine, the game presents you with a ton of randomly selected scenarios, most of which will put you in a moral dilemma as you are forced to choose between forsaking your family's survival or your humanity/morality. As your bunker grows, you can also recruit more people to join you. Knowing who to trust enough to allow them access to your shelter is another dilemma that you'll probably need to face in this game.
Sheltered is the perfectly-designed game for players who find Fallout Shelter a bit too casual for their liking and This War of Mine a bit too restricted. If you' like what you've read so far, then do get the game from Steam. You can thank me later!
