Dining Zoo vs Patron
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!
Patron
Patron is a medieval-themed city-builder that is quite similar to Banished. In this game, you play as a pioneer sent by your King to colonize a new region. With a group of peasants to help, it is up to you to build a town from the ground up and develop it into one of the most prosperous colonies of the empire!The game is all about optimizing production chains and subsequently, pursuing advancements. So, at the beginning, it’s important to produce enough raw materials so you can have enough materials to “fuel” your other production facilities in order to craft more profitable items. As your town expands, you’ll need to make sure your production scales up accordingly, be it by upgrading existing structures or building new ones. This is where the challenge really comes in.
Of course, besides upgrades and expansions, you’ll want to invest in research so you could unlock better and, hence, more productive buildings, as well as new production facilities which will then allow you to produce items that are usually more luxurious and lucrative to trade. From time to time, you will receive various edicts from the King or news of certain events. You’ll then be expected to choose between the two decisions provided.
All in all, Patron is definitely a much better version of Banished in every way, and this saying something since I’ve enjoyed playing Banished. This game’s a solid medieval city-builder with a nice level of difficulty which matches what a midcore gamer like me can handle. The game is definitely worth the cost!
