Egg, Inc. vs Red Tractor Tycoon
Egg, Inc.
Egg, Inc. is an insanely addictive farm-themed idle game where you’ll need to tap to send your chickens from the hatchery to the coop. There, they will produce eggs over time which you can then use your transport, be it a pickup truck or a simple trike, to sell. As you play, you’ll get to expand your egg farm by, for example, adding more coops, and upgrading your buildings.Like any self-respecting tycoon simulation game, Egg, Inc. also comes with a research system where you can invest the money you’ve made from selling eggs into various upgrades. As the value of your farm increases, you’ll be given the option to sell off your old farm and buy a new one. Although you’ll basically have to start all over, this new farm retains all unlocked epic research as well as other perks.
Despite being an idle game, Egg, Inc. has some elements of active play too. There are drones that you can tap to “shoot” down and steal the package it is carrying, for instance. To further increase your egg farm’s production and efficiency, the game gifts you random boosts from time to time.
Featuring minimalistic aesthetics, Egg, Inc. is one idle game that will keep you glued to the screen for hours on end. The progression in this game doesn’t feel too much like a grind and it’s just plain joy to be able to actually see your egg empire grow!
Red Tractor Tycoon
Red Tractor Tycoon is a surprisingly unique, fun and relaxing farm simulation game where you get to design your own farm, plant and harvest a variety of crops, rear several types of farm animals, and even build factories to produce crafted goods that you can place on your farm or sell for a profit! The game is also pretty simple to pick up and as you progress, you'll get to uncover new land to develop a farm on.For an early access game, Red Tractor Tycoon is definitely among the rare “cream of the crop”. The game is relatively bug-free, though there are still some aspects that I think the developers can work on to improve their game and attract more players. The gameplay here might feel rather tedious, especially for the first hour or so when you’re just wandering around and clicking on everything while trying to figure things out, but eventually, the game does become a lot more enjoyable.
