Don't Starve vs Taonga
Don't Starve
Don't Starve is a pretty dreary and dark survival game set in a rich world filled with plenty of animals/game to hunt, monsters to kill, and resources to gather. With a gothic-like theme, the game's best feature is perhaps the way it hands the reins to its players and let these players decide what sort of survival game they'd want to play and how difficult will the game be. You can literally customize everything in the world you'll be playing in, ranging from the weather, how frequent lightning strikes, how long a season lasts, how much resources are spawned and many more.The game also has a very nice selection of characters that you can gradually unlock as you play the game. Each character will even have their own specialty that you can then make use of when the situation calls for it.
Don't Starve is a survival game that's as punishing as it is vicious. Expect to die a lot in the game and turn all those deaths into useful lessons that you can then build upon. If you fancy surviving with your friends in tow, then you might want to get the multiplayer version of the game, Don't Starve Together, instead.
Taonga
Taonga is a fun and interesting farm simulation and adventure game that may bring to mind games like the Island Experiment. In this game, you’ve just inherited a populated tropical island in the Pacific region from a mysterious ancestor that you didn’t even know you had, but you took everything in stride and set off to develop the island into a beautiful tropical farm and also to help out the local tribes who were struggling to make a living for themselves. There are plenty secrets for you to uncover as you explore the island and who know? You may even stumble upon some treasures!Taonga is a game that might be a bit slower paced although you'll start off with a ton of energy to spend, but the adventure element it adds to the gameplay does help to break the monotony of routine virtual farming. If you're looking for a farm game that's a stone's throw away from run-of-the-mill farm sims, then Taonga is the game to play. Play it now on Facebook!
