Jenga vs Tidal Tribe
Jenga
Jenga is the only Jenga-type game on the mobile market and it's not surprising to see why. From creating racing games with realistic motion physics to creating Jenga with accurate, close-to-life gravitational physics and stability, NaturalMotion is possibly the only mobile-specific company that is able to create a realistic digital version of the timeless crowd-favorite game, complete with beautifully rendered environment.The game also has a multiplayer mode that'll see you competing with friends to see who'll topple the tower of blocks first. Scores you earn from playing are also listed on the leaderboard - that is if the scores are high enough - giving you some amount of bragging rights if you happen to rank near or at the top. Not to mention, you can even compare the heights of your Jenga blocks with your friends' while you're still playing a game!
There are, however, some issues with the game, but overall, Jenga is still the only mobile version of the favorite pastime of many and if you suddenly had a craving for such a game, you'll have nohere to turn except to this one... unless you own a physical version of the game, then by all means, invite some friends over and have some fun!
Tidal Tribe
Tidal Tribe is a relaxing god game where the goal is to create as many lakes as you can by sculpting the land, just so you can encourage plants, especially fruit-bearing ones, to grow, which will, in turn, provide the necessary impetus for neighboring villages to develop into proper civilizations. Of course, there are various other factors to consider if you want to build the perfect villages when you terraform the land, including whether or not the waters will cause flood, or whether the mountains you create are too high for the meeples (the AI villagers) to climb. Basically, the game can be as easy or as challengingly-strategic as you want, depending on the personal goals you set for your playthrough.Tidal Tribe is not only a fun and relaxing god game to play; it has some pretty nice graphics and ambiance for a low-budget indie title as well! So, if you would like to flex your god-like muscles in a game where the AI people don't moan or complain about stuff as much, this is the game for you.
