Fantasy Farming: Orange Season vs The Sims Mobile
Fantasy Farming: Orange Season
Fantasy Farming: Orange Season is a relaxing farming game and is an amazing new addition to the growing popularity of farming games like Stardew Valley and other similar games, such as My Time at Portia. Grow various crops and earn tons of money, go out foraging and sell what you get, and build relationships with a colorful cast of characters in town by helping them with tasks, giving them gifts, and simply talking to them every day.Being essentially a farming simulation game, you can expect to spend most of your playtime planting, watering, and harvesting a variety of crops. The game starts you off with a handful of them, but as you progress, more crops are unlocked and you’ll then be able to buy their respective seeds at the store at a price. Some seeds even require specific conditions to grow.
Considering there that crops take some time to grow and mature, you’ll likely be spending most of the remainder of your time trying to earn cash by foraging. Foraging here means picking up stuff that is dropped on the ground like sticks, fruits, flowers, etc. Once you can go into the mines and start mining for stuff, you can harvest a variety of valuable ores and stones as well.
You’ll also want to head over to the town as soon as you can. Here, you’ll be able to interact with a variety of characters, some of which have quirky personalities. You’ll need to help them with their requests from time to time and you’ll get something nice in return. You can also gift them presents and depending on what they personally like, they may or may not appreciate said gift.
Fantasy Farming: Orange Season has a gameplay that’s somewhat similar to another indie farm game, My Time at Portia, albeit with cute pixel graphics similar to Stardew Valley. And if you love that game, you’ll definitely love this one. The grind here is real though, so if you find grinding for materials on MMOs to be fun and relaxing, you might be able to enjoy playing this game.
The Sims Mobile
The Sims Mobile is possibly the closest you can get to getting a free-to-play version of The Sims and although you are limited in certain aspects as compared to The Sims Freeplay, you can do so much more in this version. The Sims Mobile has a lot more "life simulation" in it, allowing you to craft your own family legacy and pass any family heirloom (or any other distinctive characteristics) on from generation to generation. Not to mention, you will also be able to do the usual Sims stuff like picking up a career, party with friends, build a home, fall in love, get married, start a family and more.The Sims Mobile is poised to take over from The Sims FreePlay and will let you dive into the a life simulation that's much more in-depth rather than being just a social virtual world with avatars.
