Happy Cafe vs Village Life
Happy Cafe
Happy Cafe is a restaurant/cafe management sim that may bring to mind games like Restaurant City (R.I.P.). Unlike traditional cooking-themed sims, this game allows you to actually build your own restaurant from the starter restaurant that you get. Prepare and cook a wide variety of dishes from across countries and cultures, put them up on display counters, and serve them to your respective customers. Like most sims though, you can decorate your place to your liking, expand your cafe, upgrade your kitchen appliances and also, being a rather social game, invite your friends to help you out from time to time. Best yet, the game even has a nice eco garden where you can plant, grow and harvest your very own organic ingredients to be used at your cafe.So, if you're looking for a restaurant/cafe management sim that's more laidback and where its "cooking process" merely includes a waiting time, then Happy Cafe is the game for you. It may not be a time management game, which happens to be an area they are an expert in, but Nordcurrent manages to deliver a wonderful game nonetheless.
Village Life
Village Life is a fun, free-to-play village simulation game whereby you look after your small village of people. Assign tasks to your adult villagers to gather resources and supplies for developing your village or trading. You will also need to keep your villagers happy by fulfilling their needs, which in turn will allow you to unlock a whole new range of resources and items.The best part about this game though is its intricate "reproduction system". Here, you can hook-up your adult villager with another villager of the opposite gender from your friends' village. You can even be a bit more selective about finding a partner just so you can get a baby with really useful skill for your village. Sometimes, villagers may even join your village if they like what they see!
Village Life is a very unique game - at least among free-to-play games - that you can easily play via Facebook. The game allows you to literally build a civilization, albeit a tribal one, from a single couple. Sounds fun? Well, play Village Life now!
