Job Simulator vs Viridi
Job Simulator
Job Simulator is a virtual reality game that has a really interesting and rather hilarious theme. Apparently, in the game world, every job has been replaced with a robot worker and for a human to learn what it was like "to have a job", a Job Simulator (this game) was created. However, being the whimsical game that it is, the game's depiction of what it is to job is very out of touch from the actual thing. There are up to four jobs for you to play as including the cubicle-dwelling office worker and the average fast food jobber.The game itself is not only incredibly entertaining to play; it also features some of the most advanced tech in the virtual reality industry to precisely track your every move, giving you the sort of realism, despite its obviously absurd theme, that you have never seen in other games (try juggling in the game and you'll see what we mean). So, if you have a virtual reality device (HTC Vive, PlaystationVR, Oculus Rift, etc), Job Simulator is a game you'll want to play.
Viridi
Viridi has been hailed as one of the most relaxing game on Steam, though the game is now available on both Android and iOS now as well. How can you relax by playing this game? Well, Viridi is basically a plant simulator; a safe haven where you can patiently take care of a large pot of plants that are often arranged decoratively to resemble something you might see in a terrarium. The game is not intended to be played in long periods of time. Just like a real life plant, you simply need to check in once a day or so, water and maybe fertilize it, and leave it to grow at its own pace. If you do a good job of caring for your plant, it might even flower for you (as long as it's a flowering plant)!Viridi is a limited free-to-play game which makes it more of a free-to-try. There are some free plants you can play around with for free, but if you want to really get into the game, there is an assortment of different plants in the in-game nursery that you can buy with real money. You can also get a free seedling every week.
