Patron vs SimCity 3000
Patron
Patron is a medieval-themed city-builder that is quite similar to Banished. In this game, you play as a pioneer sent by your King to colonize a new region. With a group of peasants to help, it is up to you to build a town from the ground up and develop it into one of the most prosperous colonies of the empire!The game is all about optimizing production chains and subsequently, pursuing advancements. So, at the beginning, it’s important to produce enough raw materials so you can have enough materials to “fuel” your other production facilities in order to craft more profitable items. As your town expands, you’ll need to make sure your production scales up accordingly, be it by upgrading existing structures or building new ones. This is where the challenge really comes in.
Of course, besides upgrades and expansions, you’ll want to invest in research so you could unlock better and, hence, more productive buildings, as well as new production facilities which will then allow you to produce items that are usually more luxurious and lucrative to trade. From time to time, you will receive various edicts from the King or news of certain events. You’ll then be expected to choose between the two decisions provided.
All in all, Patron is definitely a much better version of Banished in every way, and this saying something since I’ve enjoyed playing Banished. This game’s a solid medieval city-builder with a nice level of difficulty which matches what a midcore gamer like me can handle. The game is definitely worth the cost!
SimCity 3000
SimCity 3000 is a pretty old-school version of SimCity. However, aside from the aging graphics, the game is still pretty fun to this day. The game provides you with 13 challenging scenarios to play in or you can simply hop into its sandbox mode and enjoy building a city whichever way you like. There are also "fun" (for you) disasters that you can unleash onto your poor Sims, obliberating homes and high-rise buildings alike. With more buildings (landmarks specifically) than ever, SimCity 3000 is a great step-up from the previous and is a testament to the old-school version of SimCity... and well, just in case you have an insatiable craving to play an older version of the SimCity, SimCity 3000 is a game you can play.Platforms
