Archeo: Shinar vs SimCity BuildIt
Archeo: Shinar
Archeo: Shinar is a fun, archeological-themed, business management-style game where you get to assemble a team of archeologists and send them on expeditions to excavate for valuable ancient items that you can then sell at the black market.Although the gameplay is pretty much casual-like, there are so many little details that you can scrutinize and optimize in this game just so you can run a more profitable business. Of course, as the leader of the team, you'll also be asked to make difficult decisions, some of which may not be well-received by the archeologists you hire.
So, if you love playing games where you'll need to manage a team and resources, you'll want to check out Archeo Shinar. The game is in-depth enough to be fun but is casual enough to be relaxing to play.
SimCity BuildIt
SimCity BuildIt is an incredibly immersive city-building simulation game where you, as the mayor of a small town, strive to develop a bustling metropolis of your dreams. By manufacturing and crafting a variety of goods, you can use these items to earn some cash or to upgrade your existing buildings so they can house more people. Help your fellow citizens solve their daily problems by adding or expanding roads, building entertainment outlets, parks or any other useful facilities nearby, and, of course, making sure that their basic needs (electricity, water and waste management) is well-taken care of.The game has so many different buildings that you can construct, some of which will require special materials obtainable by periodic orders at the airport or at the docks. Best yet, you can even get Dr. Vu to launch one of his devastating experiments onto the city you've built, just so you can see the amazing effects and also to earn rewards for repairing the damaged buildings. SimCity BuildIt has also added a more competitive element by hosting frequent tournaments where mayors can complete a set list of quest objectives to earn points and rank higher on the leaderboard or even to eventually move on to a higher league.
When it comes to city-building games, there are many on the mobile platform but SimCity BuildIt manages to set itself apart from all the rest, not by having gorgeous graphics, but because it retains many of the fun and somewhat strategic elements, albeit in a much more mobile friendly and simplified way, that made SimCity (the franchise) so popular among gamers.
