Tasty Town vs Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children
Tasty Town
Tasty Town is a restaurant management-themed simulation game that builds upon the gameplay that World Chef provides while adding a couple of interesting new features of its own. For starters, the gameplay is greatly enhanced with the addition of a farm where you can plant, grow and gather your own crops, and raise various farm animals. Tasty Town has also greatly expanded the social features that were previously available in World Chef. In addition to the usual friend system, you can now create or join a Chefs Club and work with your club friends to achieve specific goals.However, the best part about this game, aside from its pretty standard gameplay of cooking food, serving them to your customers and turning a profit, is its fun time-management mini-game in which you operate your own food truck called Tasty Dash. Oh, and don’t forget that there are even story quests which introduce you to each of the game’s main characters while providing them with some depth and personality, a wide range of buildings you can eventually unlock and use, as well as plenty of themed decorations for you to decorate your place with.
Despite the “recycled” visual assets, Tasty Town is definitely a step-up from its predecessor, World Chef although the game’s technically not a sequel. There are so much more for you to do now aside from cooking food and serving them, and all of the “extra features” do help a lot to supplement the generic restaurant-management gameplay.
Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children
Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children is the second installment in the Virtual Villagers series. In this game, your small tribe managed to rescue a group of children adrift at sea. These children will need nurturing and it falls on you, the leader of the tribe to provide them with just that. Of course, you'll still need to explore the west side of Isola in hopes of discovering and learning more about the mysterious island.Similar to the previous game, Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children contains plenty of unpredictable events that will pop up from time to time to challenge your problem-solving skills. This effectively dispels the monotony of the day-to-day.
So, if you enjoy life simulation games or if you love playing Virtual Villagers' games, you'll want this in your game library as well.
