Indoorlands vs Restaurant Paradise
Indoorlands
Indoorlands is an indoor theme park simulation game where you can build your theme park from the ground up, decorate the place, customize each ride, and make as much money as you can by fulfilling your visitors’ needs. There’s also a research tree where you can unlock new ride and décor halls to build, thematic decor to place, and increase the number of visitors your park can support. Honestly, if you’ve played Parkitect before, Indoorlands will feel somewhat similar, albeit a simpler version of it, and indoors. Rides, for instance, are placed in specialized “ride halls” while décor can be placed either in ride halls or special décor halls.Now, despite currently being in early access, Indoorlands already has enough content for tens of hours of play, especially if you are simply obsessed over creating the best possible theme park with a high visitor approval rating. The game is also completely sandbox-based so you’re given free rein to create your park as you like. You can even take over the controls of a ride, have fun operating it, or even set your own ride program. However, that is not to say that the game’s a perfect early access title. It does have some hiccups and some room for improvement, especially when it comes to the depth of some of its features. Still, the game’s definitely worth its asking price even now and if you love theme park sims in general, you’ll definitely enjoy playing Indoorlands!
Restaurant Paradise
Restaurant Paradise is a food-themed simulation game that is quite unlike any other you may have played before. As opposed to having you managing a single shop or a series of shops, this game lets you set up your own food park instead! A food park is basically like a theme park but with food stalls instead of rides. Similar to a theme park sim, you'll need to build a wide variety of food shops to attract more foodies to your place, set up sufficient tables and chairs for them to dine at, and add some nice decor to increase the appeal of your food park and hence, attract even more foodies!The game also has an interesting "Fever" element (I assume it means Food Fever rather than an actual Fever), where it works much like a hype - the more you have, the more money you'll earn. Since the game will "cash out" your profits on a day-by-day basis depending on how much food your shops produced and sold, if you happen to need some cash urgently, you can always "rush" the process by conducting a fair. A fair speeds up production, and earns you more in-game cash than the usual.
Developed by Happy Labs, Restaurant Paradise is not only an adorable-looking simulation game; it is a very unique one as well. If you enjoy playing food-themed sims that are one-of-a-kind, this is definitely a game you won't want to miss out on!
