Animal Crossing: New Leaf vs Patron
Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Animal Crossing: New Leaf is one of the newer Animal Crossing games mainly because of its most recent free update which includes all of the new features and amiibo-related features from Animal Crossing: New Leaf – Welcome amiibo (it's something like an expansion). This means you'll be able to simply tap on your amiibo figures and cards to invite them to visit your town in your game to to get them to move in. Of course, the same features that had made the series great are also present in this game, including the fun customizing aspect of your character, home and town.Animal Crossing: New Leaf was literally given a new lease on life with the brand-new update and has renewed interest in this 2013 game.

Patron
Patron is a medieval-themed city-builder that is quite similar to Banished. In this game, you play as a pioneer sent by your King to colonize a new region. With a group of peasants to help, it is up to you to build a town from the ground up and develop it into one of the most prosperous colonies of the empire!The game is all about optimizing production chains and subsequently, pursuing advancements. So, at the beginning, it’s important to produce enough raw materials so you can have enough materials to “fuel” your other production facilities in order to craft more profitable items. As your town expands, you’ll need to make sure your production scales up accordingly, be it by upgrading existing structures or building new ones. This is where the challenge really comes in.
Of course, besides upgrades and expansions, you’ll want to invest in research so you could unlock better and, hence, more productive buildings, as well as new production facilities which will then allow you to produce items that are usually more luxurious and lucrative to trade. From time to time, you will receive various edicts from the King or news of certain events. You’ll then be expected to choose between the two decisions provided.
All in all, Patron is definitely a much better version of Banished in every way, and this saying something since I’ve enjoyed playing Banished. This game’s a solid medieval city-builder with a nice level of difficulty which matches what a midcore gamer like me can handle. The game is definitely worth the cost!
