Egg, Inc. vs Transformice
Egg, Inc.
Egg, Inc. is an insanely addictive farm-themed idle game where you’ll need to tap to send your chickens from the hatchery to the coop. There, they will produce eggs over time which you can then use your transport, be it a pickup truck or a simple trike, to sell. As you play, you’ll get to expand your egg farm by, for example, adding more coops, and upgrading your buildings.Like any self-respecting tycoon simulation game, Egg, Inc. also comes with a research system where you can invest the money you’ve made from selling eggs into various upgrades. As the value of your farm increases, you’ll be given the option to sell off your old farm and buy a new one. Although you’ll basically have to start all over, this new farm retains all unlocked epic research as well as other perks.
Despite being an idle game, Egg, Inc. has some elements of active play too. There are drones that you can tap to “shoot” down and steal the package it is carrying, for instance. To further increase your egg farm’s production and efficiency, the game gifts you random boosts from time to time.
Featuring minimalistic aesthetics, Egg, Inc. is one idle game that will keep you glued to the screen for hours on end. The progression in this game doesn’t feel too much like a grind and it’s just plain joy to be able to actually see your egg empire grow!
Transformice
Transformice is a hilariously entertaining MMO platformer where you along with dozens of other mice will be jumping and running all over the place to be the first to bring back the cheese. Featuring a plethora of levels, realistic physics and an overall frantic gameplay, the game also appoints a random player as the almighty Shaman mouse who can decide to be the good samaritan and help the other little mice to get to the cheese or play the villain and make life a living hell for them. Besides having plenty of customization options, each player's mouse will have its own skill tree to upgrade.Interestingly, Transformice is a rather player-driven game. The game allows players to create their own game modes and maps in addition to the 7 official game modes and 200 official maps. This little yet significant feature helps to further extend the game's lifespan, giving players a chance to not only play games but also create games for other players to enjoy.
Being a somewhat competitive game, Transformice has a rarely ethical F2P business model where every item in the game is obtainable without spending any real money and if you do spend real money, the items you get are simply cosmetic in nature. Spenders and non-spenders will actually be on equal footing in this game, how awesome is that?
So, if you have a penchant for ridiculously funny platformers, Transformice is a game you won't want to miss out. Do give it a try!
