Ditching Work - Escape Game vs Merek's Market
Ditching Work - Escape Game
Ditching Work - Escape Game is an escape-the-room, puzzle game but the interesting thing is that the game has a Japanese-styled humor added to give it a bit of a unique twist. In this game, the whole purpose of escaping the "room", which in this case, is the office where you work, not just to be trapped in another room but to ditch work. The game works by getting you to tap on anything that catches your eye, be it an overturned flower pot or a closed cabinet, in hopes of finding the key to the lock which bars your escape. Sometimes, you may even find collectibles that will end up in your Item Gallery. Need some help with a level? You can watch video ads to get free hints. Hints are numbered and some levels have multiple hints while other may just have 1 or 2.Ditching Work - Escape Game is definitely one of the oddly-relatable, at least for any working adult, games especially when you encounter a day at work that you just wish you could escape from. This game is pretty humorous as well - this is the sort of game where you can feed your coworkers and your boss spoiled bananas just so they will all dash to the toilet, leaving you with the golden opportunity and an unlocked door to skip out on work.
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!
