Restaurant Paradise vs Tropico Reloaded
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!
Tropico Reloaded
Tropico Reloaded is a strategic nation-building game that may feel a little like one of those really in-depth city-building simulation games. However, playing the role of the leader of a banana republic rather than simply being the mayor, you have a wider reach and influence over your people - you can choose to rule with an iron grip or with benevolence - and also the ability to amass an army to defend your said republic from external invaders and internal dissidents. Of course, you can also choose to be corrupt and set aside some funds for your swiss bank account.The game's expansion, Tropico: Paradise Island allows you to not only bring natural disasters on your people but also build tourist attractions as you open up your country for others to visit and of course, to bring in tons of cash. This reloaded version even includes Tropico 2, which will see you ruling over a pirate island as the Pirate King.
Tropico lets players enjoy the fun of managing their own country in their own respective ways much like a simulation game would, and yet, there is also a strategic element to it as you'll need to lead your armies or pirate crew to defend your people from time to time. This game may appeal to fans of city-builders or people who have always imagine themselves leading a nation.
