Dining Zoo vs Food Fantasy
Dining Zoo
Dining Zoo is a café simulation game where you set up your very own virtual café. Purchase ingredients from the ingredients market, cook up a variety of mouth-watering cuisines from all around the world and serve them up to your hungry customers. Expand your café by clearing neighboring land and buying them up. Decorate your café to beautify the place and don’t forget to keep an eye out for the food inspector for he is not one for waiting around. Serve him quickly and you may just get a higher Milinche (a.k.a. Michelin) score. There’s even a social element to the game where players can trade food and ingredients with each other.Giving the usual time management café games a wide berth, Dining Zoo is a café simulation game that has a more relaxing gameplay and is perfect to be played in short bursts throughout the day. If you’re looking for a café simulation game that’s not too demanding, Dining Zoo is the game for you. After all, even in a world where every human being has been turned into walking and talking animals, people will still need to eat... and this is where you come in!
Food Fantasy
Food Fantasy is a unique JRPG where all the characters in the game are essentially personified food. For instance, "red wine" is personified into a suave young man who dressed like a Victorian vampire, while "hotdog" is depicted as a tall and lanky young man who has a passion for painting (naturally, ketchup is his signature paint). This concept in its own is immensely intriguing and, of course, very unique, but does the game holds up well when it comes to its gameplay?Well, the story behind the whole game can feel a tad bit forced, and even confusing for some. Apparently, fallen angels have invaded the world and only food souls, a.k.a. the food characters, are able to help defeat them. Combat is pretty barebones, but it's still decent for a mobile RPG. The game even lets you manage your own restaurant where you'll get to prepare and serve food to your customers, much like in a cafe-themed time management game.
Food Fantasy is indeed a very intriguing game, all thanks to its unique perspective on food. It's also really nice that the game incorporates some aspects of a restaurant management game, which completely fits the overall theme, into its gameplay, giving players something else to enjoy aside from all the fighting in a standard RPG.
