3rd World Famer vs Patron
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.
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!
