Farmville: Tropic Escape vs Tiny Pixel Farm
Farmville: Tropic Escape
Farmville: Tropic Escape is the latest installment of farm simulation games that are based on the hugely popular game franchise, Farmville. This time around, you'll be managing and building up a farm/resort of your own on a beautiful and rich (flora and fauna-wise) tropical island instead of the countryside. Plant, grow and harvest a variety of crops and animal produce and use them to whip up a range of tropical goodies for your island guests. Hire guides to uncover new touristy locations and expand the land you can use. You may even unearth some intriguing mystery about the island you now inhabit!All in all, Farmville: Tropic Escape incorporates all the features of the recent breakout farm games out there while adding some extra spices of its own. It's a solidly entertaining game that many players - and we're sure of this - will be completely hooked to.
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.
