Suburbia 2 vs Tasty Town
Suburbia 2
Suburbia 2 took the series to a new level by providing a different gameplay as compared to the previous game. As opposed to simply reusing the "life simulation" formula, the game puts you into the shoes of an up-and-coming suburbian-based caterer who has just taken over the family business after your uncle, who was managing the company before it was passed on to you, mysteriously disappeared. However, once Liselle, the lady who is temporarily filling in for your uncle also gone missing, you begin to think that life in suburbia might be quite dangerous after all.Overall, the game has a very intriguing, mystery-filled storyline that rivals that of the original game, an interesting cast of characters, and a gameplay that’s quite engaging, but unfortunately, the rather ridiculous waiting times in this game may put a lot of players off. If you plan on giving this game a try, we would highly recommend playing it in small doses rather than spending hours on it at a stretch. That way, you won’t feel as frustrated about the waiting duration, and will actually be able to enjoy the game’s story.
Tasty Town
Tasty Town is a restaurant management-themed simulation game that builds upon the gameplay that World Chef provides while adding a couple of interesting new features of its own. For starters, the gameplay is greatly enhanced with the addition of a farm where you can plant, grow and gather your own crops, and raise various farm animals. Tasty Town has also greatly expanded the social features that were previously available in World Chef. In addition to the usual friend system, you can now create or join a Chefs Club and work with your club friends to achieve specific goals.However, the best part about this game, aside from its pretty standard gameplay of cooking food, serving them to your customers and turning a profit, is its fun time-management mini-game in which you operate your own food truck called Tasty Dash. Oh, and don’t forget that there are even story quests which introduce you to each of the game’s main characters while providing them with some depth and personality, a wide range of buildings you can eventually unlock and use, as well as plenty of themed decorations for you to decorate your place with.
Despite the “recycled” visual assets, Tasty Town is definitely a step-up from its predecessor, World Chef although the game’s technically not a sequel. There are so much more for you to do now aside from cooking food and serving them, and all of the “extra features” do help a lot to supplement the generic restaurant-management gameplay.
