3rd World Famer vs Abzu
3rd World Famer
3rd World Famer is an educational and thought-provoking farm simulation game that aims to let players experience the hardships of farming in a poor country. You'll face plenty of obstacles, many of which are caused by uncontrollable factors like diseases, droughts or neverending wars, and you'll need to use your wits to figure out the best way to overcome them. The game tries to be as realistic as possible in depicting the real-world mechanisms that cause and sustain poverty in third world countries, especially for countries that are dependant on its farming communities, by simulating a wide variety of real-world topics and problems.However, despite being simply a game, 3rd World Farmer hopes that it can let the player realize that the gameplay they are experiencing are sometimes the actual day-to-day that many farmers in third world countries are going through. With that in mind, the developers hopes the game may inspire many youngsters to pitch in and help these people in need to solve their issues.
3rd World Farmer may not be a strictly an entertaining game; it is definitely one that will make you think about what you can do to help solve some of the world's problems. Even if this is not a game that you'd normally play, it is still a game you should at least try.
Abzu
Abzu is unlike any game you may have played before. As opposed to many games that focus just a tad bit too much on fighting and killing one another, Abzu is a beautiful exploration and interactive-styled adventure-like game that allows you to simply explore the wonderous and vibrant underwater world. Play as the Diver and immerse yourself in a world filled with abundant sea life and mystery while doing impressive underwater acrobatics or even simply swimming around with the fishes... fishes or any underwater wildlife that actually can react to your presence rather than just ignoring you.The feeling of relaxing quietness that Abzu can evoke is so uncanny. Despite the graphics, which doesn't look at all like the real-life version (this is not a criticism by the way, we're just pointing out a fact), the game is just so well-designed that you actually feel like you're diving underwater while playing the game. We'd highly recommend this game if you're looking for a game to play to destress or just to experience something completely new.
