Hungry Hearts Diner vs My Cafe: Recipes and Stories
Hungry Hearts Diner
Hungry Hearts Diner is an exceptional time management game. The game has a whole lot of depth mainly through the many heartwarming storylines that you can uncover as you feed your customers at your diner. In this game, you play as a kindly old lady who, despite hard times, wants nothing more than to serve her customers with the best food she can muster. Set in the Showa era of Japan, the game will also introduce you to the many different types of authentic Japanese dishes and let you prepare them all.The best part about this game though is the many stories you'll reveal as each customer tells you about their lives over time. The old lady is also incredibly sweet, as she did her best to cheer up each customer. This is an aspect that is sorely lacking in most time management games, where apparently the common and only goal is to do everything as fast as you can to earn as much money as you can.
Although the game does seem a bit lacking after you've completed all quests and uncovered all plots, Hungry Hearts Diner is quite the revolutionary time management game. This game shows that storyline is as important as the gameplay and if we are honest to ourselves, many time management games out there definitely need to brush up on their storytelling skills if they were to compete with games like this one.
My Cafe: Recipes and Stories
My Cafe: Recipes and Stories is the simulation game to play if you enjoy the intrigue and storyline in games like Suburbia 2 and yet love the idea of managing your very own virtual cafe. Partner up and help your friend Ann in the classy cafe you both own and manage it to the best of your ability. In some way, the game feels a lot like a tycoon game mainly because you can actually adjust the prices of the food and drinks you sell. The profits you get can then be injected back into your business through the purchase of beautiful decor or even building a new restaurant.There are also various special recipes that you can discover. The best part though is the many compelling stories you'll be privy to whenever an interesting customer enters your shop. You can even interact with the customer through a selection of dialogues and influence the plot. In some way, through these tiny snippets of gossip, you can learn more about the town and the residents in it.
My Cafe: Recipes and Stories is a pretty unique cafe simulation that fans of games like Suburbia 2, or even restaurant simulaiton games in general, may enjoy. If this sounds great to you, well, be sure to check the game out!
