Buildings Have Feelings Too! vs Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children
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.
Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children
Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children is the second installment in the Virtual Villagers series. In this game, your small tribe managed to rescue a group of children adrift at sea. These children will need nurturing and it falls on you, the leader of the tribe to provide them with just that. Of course, you'll still need to explore the west side of Isola in hopes of discovering and learning more about the mysterious island.Similar to the previous game, Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children contains plenty of unpredictable events that will pop up from time to time to challenge your problem-solving skills. This effectively dispels the monotony of the day-to-day.
So, if you enjoy life simulation games or if you love playing Virtual Villagers' games, you'll want this in your game library as well.
