Game Dev Tycoon vs Suburbia 2
Game Dev Tycoon
Game Dev Tycoon is a fun tycoon game where you get to experience growing a start-up into a successful games company. Here, you not only can enjoy managing your team of game developers; you'll even have the freedom to create a game that you like by simply mixing and matching genres, engines and platforms, and by determining development priorities. There are many different successful genre combinations for you to discover along the way as well and from time to time, you'll be surprised with events that change the public perception of your game. Even a previous successful franchise can fall flat if you don't take into account feedback from your players.Aside from letting its players strive for the "indie to triple A" experience, Game Dev Tycoon does give players a very nice insight into the ins-and-outs of a typical games company as well as into the history of games (game platforms in particular) in an entertaining way. Do give the game a try if you enjoy tycoon games. It is definitely worth every cent you'll spend.
Suburbia 2
Suburbia 2 took the series to a new level by providing a different gameplay as compared to the previous game. As opposed to simply reusing the "life simulation" formula, the game puts you into the shoes of an up-and-coming suburbian-based caterer who has just taken over the family business after your uncle, who was managing the company before it was passed on to you, mysteriously disappeared. However, once Liselle, the lady who is temporarily filling in for your uncle also gone missing, you begin to think that life in suburbia might be quite dangerous after all.Overall, the game has a very intriguing, mystery-filled storyline that rivals that of the original game, an interesting cast of characters, and a gameplay that’s quite engaging, but unfortunately, the rather ridiculous waiting times in this game may put a lot of players off. If you plan on giving this game a try, we would highly recommend playing it in small doses rather than spending hours on it at a stretch. That way, you won’t feel as frustrated about the waiting duration, and will actually be able to enjoy the game’s story.
