Cookie Jam vs Journey
Cookie Jam
Cookie Jam is one of the few but popular match-3 puzzle game that has a following that rivals that of any games from King. Developed by Jam City, Cookie Jam provides the fun match-3 gameplay you'd expect from a... well, match-3 game but interestingly, you'll actually be matching sweet desserts that match the orders you receive from your customers. The game also offers varying challenges, which mostly include obstacles set up by the delinquent gingerbread man with some rather special level goals to achieve too.Cookie Jam's shot to fame can be mainly credited to its unique level goals and challenges but the game has put in some serious effort in making each level as engaging as the one before. If you're looking for something other than a Saga game to play, we would strongly recommend Cookie Jam.
Journey
Journey is literally a quintessential "artsy" adventure game. Why so? Well, the game puts you in the shoes of a mysterious robed figure who you will control throughout your adventure across beautiful, quiet and mostly desert landscapes. Each landscape provides players with a puzzle to solve that will allow them to move on to the next scene, though players can simply roam around the place and drink in the gorgeous visuals.There isn't a lot of buttons in the game and that's fine enough since you really don't need much to solve the puzzles, but personally, I'm incredibly intrigued by the Sing function. Although it is used to solve certain puzzles, most of the time you'll probably be using it idly while your character is travelling. Depending on how long you press the button and how fast you do so, you can actually create amazing little tunes that you'd love to have it recorded down and turned into perhaps a ringtone or something.
That said, Journey is a game that's so much more than composing music and solving puzzles. It is a journey (like its namesake) to help the robed figure discover who he/she is and to help you figure out what's happened in the game world, resulting in the sprawling desert that spans most of the game.
