Airport City vs Pixel Shopkeeper
Airport City
Airport City is a pretty fun simulation and management game to play that provides you with the opportunity to build and develop both a modern airport and the nearby city that supports it. In this game, you’ll need to collect money, fuel and passengers from your city to be invested into your airport. At your airport, you can build and upgrade hangars (so you can purchase more and bigger planes), runways, repair depots and many more. Send your fleet of planes off to various locations and adventures, and who knows? Your planes may just bring back that something extra – collectibles – that you can add to your collection. Complete your collection to earn some goodies! Eventually, your airport city will have grown to a stage when you have the capability and resources to go into space exploration as well.Your airport city awaits you in Airport City! Are you ready to take on the challenge of restoring the city to its former glory?
Pixel Shopkeeper
Pixel Shopkeeper is a fun, indie shop simulation and management game where you head out to raid dungeons just so you can gather items to sell and then sell them at your very own shop. The looting system in this game is immensely challenging. It has a bit of inventory management that may bring to mind dungeon crawlers like Diablo, but unlike those games, this one employs a tetris-like gameplay. So, basically, you'll be trying to bring back as many items as you can by fitting each oddly-shaped items (like tetris pieces) into your square-shaped bag. You can purchase other bags later on as well. Different bags have different grid shapes, making fitting those items a bit more challenging than usual. Some even have special grids that will double or triple the number of the item that is placed over it.Featuring nostalgic pixel graphics, this game also has a rather unique "crafting system" - if you even can call it that - whereby you can combine lower-level items to create a higher quality and hence, more valuable item. This also means that you may find yourself re-running lower level dungeons just so you can gather enough items to do your crafting.
Being a simulation game, your shop is upgradable too. You can purchase better furniture such as display shelves, tables, or cases to place more items on display. Note that only displayed items can be sold. You can also polish the items while waiting for customers just so you can get extra cash from the "Shiny" bonus. The adventurers you sell your items to may have special quests for you from time to time. Oh, and don't forget to tap on them as they pass by your shop to encourage them to check out your wares!
Despite its simple, pixel looks, Pixel Shopkeeper is a surprisingly in-depth shopkeeping simulation game with some elements of RPGs. It's very entertaining to be able to farm dungeons for the items you sell and even turn them into more profitable goods. If you enjoy a good shop simulation game and you like idle-like RPGs, then this is a game you don't want to miss!
