Rune Factory: Frontier vs Wild West: New Frontier
Rune Factory: Frontier
Rune Factory: Frontier sends you to the frontier town of Trampoli where you are expected to set up your very own virtual farm. Desiogned for the Wii console, you can literally do everything in the game simply by using your Wii remote and nunchuk (classic controllers are compatible as well), be it tilling the land, fighting monsters or fishing. The game has a much improved interaction system where your interactions and relationships, including romantic ones, feel a lot more life-like than usual, adding the rare EQ element to the gameplay.Unlike the previous games, you don't need to recruit monsters or townsfolk to maintain your farm for you. Due to the game's dynamic ecosystem, symbiotic creatures called Runeys will help hasten the growth time and quality of the plants you produce. And of course, there are plenty of dungeons for you to dive into, monsters to fight, and rare items to loot.
Rune Factory: Frontier is a pretty entertaining game overall, especially if you've enjoyed any of their previous or later games, and is definitely worth your time and money.
Wild West: New Frontier
Wild West: New Frontier is a really fun farm simulation game where apparently your recently deceased, in-game uncle has willed his land in the wild west to you - a land that happens to have a dilapidated farm, as well as other structures, on it. Since you've longed for a new start in life, you've decided to head on over to the farm to begin anew! Like other farm games, you’ll need to plant and harvest a wide variety of crops, raise animals, and turn these farm produce into more profitable goods. There are plenty of ways for you to sell your items, be it to random game characters or even to other players worldwide. You can even dive right into the gold rush that had swept the nation at that time by setting up your own gold mine.Although the gameplay isn't exactly unique, Wild West: New Frontier is able to offer players an entertaining virtual farming experience set in a time when pioneers venture into the untamed lands of the wild west. The social aspect of this game is also very well-designed, encouraging players to work together rather than to play alone. So, if you’re looking for a new farm game to play, Wild West: New Frontier is definitely a game you can try.
