Hungry Hearts Diner vs Restaurant Paradise
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.
Restaurant Paradise
Restaurant Paradise is a food-themed simulation game that is quite unlike any other you may have played before. As opposed to having you managing a single shop or a series of shops, this game lets you set up your own food park instead! A food park is basically like a theme park but with food stalls instead of rides. Similar to a theme park sim, you'll need to build a wide variety of food shops to attract more foodies to your place, set up sufficient tables and chairs for them to dine at, and add some nice decor to increase the appeal of your food park and hence, attract even more foodies!The game also has an interesting "Fever" element (I assume it means Food Fever rather than an actual Fever), where it works much like a hype - the more you have, the more money you'll earn. Since the game will "cash out" your profits on a day-by-day basis depending on how much food your shops produced and sold, if you happen to need some cash urgently, you can always "rush" the process by conducting a fair. A fair speeds up production, and earns you more in-game cash than the usual.
Developed by Happy Labs, Restaurant Paradise is not only an adorable-looking simulation game; it is a very unique one as well. If you enjoy playing food-themed sims that are one-of-a-kind, this is definitely a game you won't want to miss out on!
