Cooking Craze vs Virtual Villagers: The Secret City
Cooking Craze
Cooking Craze is a very addictive and yet surprisingly easy-to-play time management game developed and published by Big Fish Games. Featuring a linear progression path resembling what you'd see in a standard match-3 games, Cooking Craze is so different from all the other similar cafe or restaurant-themed time management games mainly through its unique gameplay - it's very simple and well-suited for the mobile market. As opposed of having to drag and drop stuff on a small mobile screen, the game is designed so that you can simply tap once to prepare the foodstuff, another 1 or 2 times to add "toppings", and once more to serve the food to your customers. Coins that are left behind are then automatically collected.Not to mention, Cooking Craze also has a 3-tier per level system whereby each new tier represents a higher difficulty level. You are not forced to replay a level just to complete all 3 tiers, unless there's a golden comment card, which is needed to unlock new restaurants, attached to the second or third tier rather than the first, but you'll end up having more coins to spend on food and tool upgrades if you do.
Cooking Craze is indeed a very intriguing time management game (since it's likely the first of its kind) that's just perfect for casual gamers to put in a couple of minutes of play in between the gaps in their schedules and daily routines.
Virtual Villagers: The Secret City
Virtual Villagers: The Secret City is the third game in the Virtual Villagers series. In this game, you'll need to send your little villagers on a perilous yet necessary journey to re-populate the lost city of Isola. Thankfully, the place where the city was rumored to be on is rich with resources that can help your tribe to not only survive but also thrive... as long as you are there to guide them along. In addition to the intriguing storyline, this game also provides real-time weather which will greatly improve your gaming experience.If you're a fan of the Virtual Villager series, you wouldn't want to miss out on this game, but even if you're not, you might want to try this game out, especially if life simulation games are kind of your jam.
