Kitchen Craze vs Merek's Market
Kitchen Craze
Kitchen Craze is an intense and rather fast-paced, time management game that has a gameplay that is very similar to Big Fish Games' most recent hit, Cooking Craze. Instead of the usual drag and drop, you simply need to tap to prepare your ingredients, cook them and serve the cooked dishes to your customers... it's that easy!The food variety in this game is pretty huge as well. you'll be serving a myriad of food types ranging from fast food to Mexican tacos; from Japanese sushi to Italian pizzas. There are plenty of restaurants for you to unlock as you advance in this game and of course, if you crave for an extra bit of challenge, you can even hop on over to the game's food court challenge and put your time management skills to the test.
Overall, Kitchen Craze may not introduce any element that is uniquely its own, but if you love Cooking Craze and would like to play another game just like it, then this game will be just perfect for you.
Merek's Market
Merek's Market is a whimsical shop simulation game with time management elements, putting you into the running shoes of a shopkeeper in a medieval fantasy period where adventurers are aplenty. Craft and sell a huge variety of useful items, be it armor, weapons, potions, or even… pottery, serve your customers as quickly as possible, and try to upsell your items whenever they decide to haggle!As you play, the levels get increasingly more difficult, making that shiny gold rating a real achievement to get. The game also comes with a host of twists to its gameplay, spicing up the typical time management levels with mini-games and funny dialogues.
If you’re a fan of time management games, Merek’s Market offers the kind of gameplay you seek with a couple of nice twists, slathered with enough tongue-in-cheek humor to make you bark out a laugh once or twice on every level. Although I’ve not tried the game’s co-op, its single-player mode is already very entertaining to play, and challenging too, if you’re aiming for that shiny gold rating. Highly recommended!
