Shelter vs Wild West: New Frontier
Shelter
Shelter is truly a one-of-a-kind game where you'll get to play as a mother badger who's taking care of her newly-born cubs. Developed by Might and Delight, the game puts you on an exciting yet heartwarming adventure as you travel about with your cubs in tow in hopes of finding the perfect shelter to raise them. In your journey, you and your family will encounter lots of danger and it is up to you - the mama badger - to protect your cubs from harm, whether it is a raging forest fire or a bird of prey.Besides adventure, the game also comes with a second game mode called Nurture. It's a lot like a Tamagochi game where you'll need to head into the game every day (at least once) to give your cubs the stuff they need to survive and also to forge closer bonds with them.
This is one of the breakout indie games of 2013 but it's not the sort of game that will get old with age, so if you love games where you'll get to play as an animal and you enjoy a good story-adventure, then Shelter is your best bet!
Wild West: New Frontier
Wild West: New Frontier is a really fun farm simulation game where apparently your recently deceased, in-game uncle has willed his land in the wild west to you - a land that happens to have a dilapidated farm, as well as other structures, on it. Since you've longed for a new start in life, you've decided to head on over to the farm to begin anew! Like other farm games, you’ll need to plant and harvest a wide variety of crops, raise animals, and turn these farm produce into more profitable goods. There are plenty of ways for you to sell your items, be it to random game characters or even to other players worldwide. You can even dive right into the gold rush that had swept the nation at that time by setting up your own gold mine.Although the gameplay isn't exactly unique, Wild West: New Frontier is able to offer players an entertaining virtual farming experience set in a time when pioneers venture into the untamed lands of the wild west. The social aspect of this game is also very well-designed, encouraging players to work together rather than to play alone. So, if you’re looking for a new farm game to play, Wild West: New Frontier is definitely a game you can try.
