Dream City Idols vs Neopets
Dream City Idols
Dream City Idols is a surprisingly addictive, fashion-themed simulation game where you play a starry-eyed up-and-comer who wants to realize his or her dreams of becoming a fashion superstar. Like most fashion simulation games, you can decorate and design your home, adopt an adorable pet, and even participate in challenging fashion contests, the Star Show in particular, and show those judges you are here to make it big! There are many quirky and adorable characters that you can meet as well!Interestingly though, the game is designed in such a way that it has the almost endless stream of events and things to do like in a browser MMO game, and yet has the casual feel so you don't feel pressured to do anything you don't want to.
Dream City Idols is a very unique fashion game that's both gorgeous to look at and incredibly fun to play. In fact, you don't really need to have a love of fashion to be able to enjoy playing this game. It's just that awesome!
Neopets
Neopets is rather old yet entertaining simulation/virtual world game that lets you adopt and take care of magical and unique pets. This means that you'll be expected to build them a home, buy them food, clothes and other cool stuff. Set in a cartoonish and immense world, you can even set off on exciting adventures with your pet. Best part is that thepets in this game can grow alongside you and they have different looks for different stages of growth, much like the Pokemon in a Pokemon game. There are plenty of fun mini-games to keep you engaged for hours on end as well.
Although the game is a bit on the old side (being released in 1997 and all), the game still holds its charm for players who want a game that's a combination of a usual pet simulation/collection game with a virtual world game. It's free to play and you can play it directly from your browser!
