Honey, I Joined a Cult vs Merek's Market
Honey, I Joined a Cult
Honey, I Joined a Cult is a whimsical cult simulation/management game where you play as the cult leader supreme managing your very own “startup cult”. The goal here is to set up your own cult compound, recruit as many cultists to your divine cause as you can, all the while making sure you’re profiting off every follower you get and avoiding scrutiny from the authorities.To be honest though, Honey, I Joined a Cult isn’t exactly a game where you joined a cult but instead puts you into the shoes of the leader of one. The game is very similar to Prison Architect so if you’ve enjoyed the latter, you’ll definitely love playing this game. It’s funny and the management part of the gameplay is fun to play. So, if you’ve always envisioned yourself leading a cult, you might want to give this game a try! After all, what could go wrong?
Merek's Market
Merek's Market is a whimsical shop simulation game with time management elements, putting you into the running shoes of a shopkeeper in a medieval fantasy period where adventurers are aplenty. Craft and sell a huge variety of useful items, be it armor, weapons, potions, or even… pottery, serve your customers as quickly as possible, and try to upsell your items whenever they decide to haggle!As you play, the levels get increasingly more difficult, making that shiny gold rating a real achievement to get. The game also comes with a host of twists to its gameplay, spicing up the typical time management levels with mini-games and funny dialogues.
If you’re a fan of time management games, Merek’s Market offers the kind of gameplay you seek with a couple of nice twists, slathered with enough tongue-in-cheek humor to make you bark out a laugh once or twice on every level. Although I’ve not tried the game’s co-op, its single-player mode is already very entertaining to play, and challenging too, if you’re aiming for that shiny gold rating. Highly recommended!
