Hokko Life vs LINE Play
Hokko Life
Hokko Life is a casual life sim that draws plenty of inspiration from the popular game, Animal Crossing, and is perfect for adults and kids alike to play. After finding yourself trapped in a remote town in the middle of nowhere, you turned it into your personal mission to revitalize the sleepy town back into its livelier version, before many of its residents moved to the city. Set up homes for new characters to move in, develop your own farm, design a host of furniture and items and share them with the community, collect butterflies and fishes, and most important of all, sit back, relax and have fun!There’s a reason why Hokko Life has been hailed as “Animal Crossing but on PC”, The gameplay is very similar to the latter and despite still being early access, the game already looks very promising for AC fans. However, do take note that the game has a really laidback pace, and if you expect to blaze through the content, you might want to look elsewhere.
LINE Play
LINE Play is a free to play, social virtual world game developed by the LINE Corp, the company behind the insanely-popular (mainly in the Asian regions) chat messaging app, LINE. Like other virtual world games, LINE Play allows you to interact with other players through the use of incredibly adorable characters which you can also customize and dress up to your liking. Players usually hang out in various lounges or virtual homes that they themselves decorate - you'll even get a virtual home to call your own too!Similar to its messaging app, LINE Play features a ton of entertaining and crazily-addictive casual games for you to enjoy. Rewards that you get from winning in these games will then be added to your personal collection.
In short, LINE Play builds on the success of LINE in many obvious ways, but ultimately, this game is a lot more fun to use mainly because it's actually a game and not just a chat app.
