Board Kings vs Buildings Have Feelings Too!
Board Kings
Board Kings is a truly innovative and unique casual game by Jellybutton Games. It puts an amazing twist to the usual "spin the wheel" or "crank the lever" gameplay that games like Pirate Kings and co. use. Instead, the game combines the gameplay with a Monopoly-inspired board game layout, and switched the big "wheel of fortune" out for cards and a dice.The game is more similar to Monopoly than you'd think. In this game, you'll move your character around a path on the board based on the number you get when you roll your dice. As you go, you may land on empty spots where you can then build your own buildings, or you may land on a train tile which allows you to visit (it's no social visit though!) your friends' boards to wreak some havoc by destroying buildings or capturing their landmarks.
Likewise, other players will be able to attack you so you'd want to defend your board with strategically-placed police cars. As you advance through the game, you'll unlock new, differently-themed boards to fill with buildings and defend.
Board Kings is a casual city-building/PvP game like no other, but if you enjoy playing Pirate Kings, Coin Master or any other games from the same genre, you'll definitely enjoy this one!
Buildings Have Feelings Too!
Buildings Have Feelings Too! is definitely one of the weirder games that I’ve reviewed and the “oddity” that it exudes might not just be everyone’s cup of tea. In this game, you play as, I assume, a construction business-slash-building, and your goal is to revitalize the many rundown sectors of the city. Different locations will offer you different quests with very different requirements, and as you complete the quests, you’ll learn more about what caused the buildings to be abandoned or shunned, via the dialogues. It’s an interesting take on the city-building genre I’ll give it that, but the game has a very annoying gameplay aspect that turns it into a “miss” than a “hit” for me.To sum it up, Buildings Have Feelings Too isn’t the sort of game that might appeal to everyone. The gameplay itself feels more puzzly than an actual city-builder and it can be very quest-oriented so if you’re hoping for more sandbox-style gameplay, this game simply isn’t it. The game admittedly has some flaws, but if you’re the sort who enjoys niche puzzle games, the game is still worth checking out.
