Kitchen Scramble vs Pixel Shopkeeper
Kitchen Scramble
Kitchen Scramble is a cooking-themed time management game that is somewhat similar to Cooking Tale though the graphics look a whole lot amazing due to the change in the camera view. However, when it comes to the gameplay, both games are pretty similar. You'll need to cook and prepare the food that your customers have ordered before they ran out of patience (patience level vary depending on customers) and leave your shop. Naturally, you'll want to serve them as soon as you can just to earn a lot more tips. These cash can then be used to upgrade your kitchen appliances - not much decorations for you to buy here though. If you need help, there are boosters you can buy as well.Kitchen Scramble features a really wide variety of dishes from different cultures and countries worldwide. Interestingly, although the game does have a travelling element to it, the cities you get to go to are rather humourously named, like "Mount Foodji" or "Sour Francisdough". It does give the game a bit more appeal, making players more eager to unlock the next city and the next one after that. Not to mention, aside from premium appliances, this game also has premium ingredients to help you earn more cash.
As much as I've enjoyed Cooking Tale, I personally prefers Kitchen Scramble mainly because of the camera view. It makes the game look nicer in a 3D-like kind of way and well, your character won't be blocking your customers either. However, if you're looking for an alternative to Kitchen Scramble or maybe a slightly easier, time management game, then you might want to check out Cooking Tale instead.
Pixel Shopkeeper
Pixel Shopkeeper is a fun, indie shop simulation and management game where you head out to raid dungeons just so you can gather items to sell and then sell them at your very own shop. The looting system in this game is immensely challenging. It has a bit of inventory management that may bring to mind dungeon crawlers like Diablo, but unlike those games, this one employs a tetris-like gameplay. So, basically, you'll be trying to bring back as many items as you can by fitting each oddly-shaped items (like tetris pieces) into your square-shaped bag. You can purchase other bags later on as well. Different bags have different grid shapes, making fitting those items a bit more challenging than usual. Some even have special grids that will double or triple the number of the item that is placed over it.Featuring nostalgic pixel graphics, this game also has a rather unique "crafting system" - if you even can call it that - whereby you can combine lower-level items to create a higher quality and hence, more valuable item. This also means that you may find yourself re-running lower level dungeons just so you can gather enough items to do your crafting.
Being a simulation game, your shop is upgradable too. You can purchase better furniture such as display shelves, tables, or cases to place more items on display. Note that only displayed items can be sold. You can also polish the items while waiting for customers just so you can get extra cash from the "Shiny" bonus. The adventurers you sell your items to may have special quests for you from time to time. Oh, and don't forget to tap on them as they pass by your shop to encourage them to check out your wares!
Despite its simple, pixel looks, Pixel Shopkeeper is a surprisingly in-depth shopkeeping simulation game with some elements of RPGs. It's very entertaining to be able to farm dungeons for the items you sell and even turn them into more profitable goods. If you enjoy a good shop simulation game and you like idle-like RPGs, then this is a game you don't want to miss!
