Cooking Tale vs Merek's Market
Cooking Tale
Cooking Tale is a fun yet somewhat simple, cooking-themed time management game that is developed by Gamegos. In this game, you'll assume the role of a fresh graduate with a culinary diploma and a determination to make it on her own. You stumbled upon a rundown burger stand and thought... well, why not start there?The gameplay in Cooking Tale will definitely put your time management skills to the test and keep constantly busy as you try your best to fulfill all your customers' orders. Unlike other games, you have a pretty trimmed-down upgrades system for your kitchen tools but in terms of shop decor, which should help you extend the patience of your customers, there is only very few of them. Due to this, the game actually relies more on your skills rather than the tools you use. But of course, if you need some help, there are always boosters to tilt a game to your advantage.
Featuring over 730 levels of widely varying themes, Cooking Tale is a mobile/Facebook game that's simple enough to be perfect for some casual time management fun and yet is challenging enough to keep you coming back for more.
Merek's Market
Merek's Market is a whimsical shop simulation game with time management elements, putting you into the running shoes of a shopkeeper in a medieval fantasy period where adventurers are aplenty. Craft and sell a huge variety of useful items, be it armor, weapons, potions, or even… pottery, serve your customers as quickly as possible, and try to upsell your items whenever they decide to haggle!As you play, the levels get increasingly more difficult, making that shiny gold rating a real achievement to get. The game also comes with a host of twists to its gameplay, spicing up the typical time management levels with mini-games and funny dialogues.
If you’re a fan of time management games, Merek’s Market offers the kind of gameplay you seek with a couple of nice twists, slathered with enough tongue-in-cheek humor to make you bark out a laugh once or twice on every level. Although I’ve not tried the game’s co-op, its single-player mode is already very entertaining to play, and challenging too, if you’re aiming for that shiny gold rating. Highly recommended!
