Craftlands Workshoppe vs My Cafe: Recipes and Stories
Craftlands Workshoppe
Craftlands Workshoppe is a tycoon-like game that’s filled with fun adventures. In this game, you’ve inherited the workshoppe of your mentor, Allcrafts – the only master craftsman who managed to master all the craftmanship skills available, and your goal is to revitalize his workshoppe business and maybe make a name for yourself!The gameplay here is pretty much what I’d expect of a “grind simulator”. What this means is that the game, being a tycoon, requires you to gather resources or buy them, turn them into more valuable goods via crafting, and then sell them off at a nice profit margin - though you don’t have much say as to how much you can price your items. Rinse and repeat.
The game lets you choose between 3 starting professions, namely Alchemy, Cook, and Blacksmith, and from there, you can earn enough to purchase licenses to unlock the other professions. The goal here is for you to master them all. There’s actually a fourth profession, which unlocks the Assembly table, but that can only be obtained once you’ve completed a milestone quest.
Crafting is fairly easy for both Alchemy and Cooking since it either involves waiting out the cooking time or making sure to spend enough energy to brew the potion properly. However, for blacksmithing, there’s a little mini-game that you’ll need to play in order to make an item. Basically, there will be a fast-moving indicator on a meter and your goal is to click whenever it enters a green area on the said meter. If you miss, you’ll have to start over, wasting all the effort and energy you might have spent.
In short, Craftlands Workshoppe is a rather grindy tycoon-like adventure game that has a pretty humorous streak. Due to how grindy it can get, the game might just not be everyone’s cup of tea. However, if you’ve always had a liking for crafting-based tycoons and the idea of managing your own shop, and that you don’t mind spending hours just grinding away gathering materials, crafting items or selling goods, then this game should be right up your alley!
My Cafe: Recipes and Stories
My Cafe: Recipes and Stories is the simulation game to play if you enjoy the intrigue and storyline in games like Suburbia 2 and yet love the idea of managing your very own virtual cafe. Partner up and help your friend Ann in the classy cafe you both own and manage it to the best of your ability. In some way, the game feels a lot like a tycoon game mainly because you can actually adjust the prices of the food and drinks you sell. The profits you get can then be injected back into your business through the purchase of beautiful decor or even building a new restaurant.There are also various special recipes that you can discover. The best part though is the many compelling stories you'll be privy to whenever an interesting customer enters your shop. You can even interact with the customer through a selection of dialogues and influence the plot. In some way, through these tiny snippets of gossip, you can learn more about the town and the residents in it.
My Cafe: Recipes and Stories is a pretty unique cafe simulation that fans of games like Suburbia 2, or even restaurant simulaiton games in general, may enjoy. If this sounds great to you, well, be sure to check the game out!
