Cooking Quest vs Tiny Pixel Farm
Cooking Quest
Cooking Quest is a 2D, idle-like, food truck-themed mobile game where you’ll get to discover and craft a variety of food, recruit and send heroes to various locations to hunt for ingredients, expand your shop by hiring more chefs, and develop the nearby village just so you can get more customers! The game is set in a world where the concept of cooking has been destroyed among humanity by the Devil King during his invasion of the world, but unknown to the devil, cooking is being kept alive by other species around the world.You happened upon such a species during your journey and being the business-minded fellow you are, you've struck an agreement with the chef and his tribe to whip up delicious food that you can then sell at your food wagon to paying customers.
So, if you enjoy a cooking-themed idle/RPG with lots of dishes and ingredients to discover and heroes to recruit, you’ll definitely want to check out Cooking Quest. The gameplay is simple enough to get into and addictive enough to keep you coming back for more!
Tiny Pixel Farm
Tiny Pixel Farm is an idle farming game that is unlike any other. Backed with a heartfelt story about an elderly farmer whose farmland is slowly being claimed by greedy corporate goons, in this game, you play as the grandchild of the said farmer and you are determined to reclaim what was rightfully your family's.Although the gameplay is generally idle in nature, the idle part of the game isn't exactly textbook-styled. As opposed to fully automating everything, you still need to put in some "work" for instance, by swiping and tapping on your animals to collect produce, on your hay-producing farms to collect hay, on your pets to collect exp gems, and others. Aside from the well-design and satisfying progression system in this game, there is an insane number of animals you can keep at the farm too.
The game is also very "video ad-heavy" mainly because you will always be given an option to watch video ads in exchange for instantly completing something, be it a construction process or selling all the goods in your shop. However, what I really like about the game is how it gives you a heads-up whenever a full-screen ad is coming up and it also thanks you after you've watched a video ad. More games should seriously take a page out of this game's book and do this!
All in all, although this game does require a good (middle range to high-end) mobile device to run, Tiny Pixel Farm brings a ton of innovation to the idle gaming genre and the game does it so brilliantly well. If you enjoy idle games, farm games or both, you might want to give this game a try.
