Meeple Station vs World Chef
Meeple Station
Meeple Station is a space-themed, sandbox simulation game that focuses a lot on exploration, trading and team management. In this game, you’ll need to build your starter space station and then venture out into the galaxy to find a place to set up shop, so to speak. Mine nearby resources and refine them into valuable bars and other alloys, and trade the resources you have with passing spaceships for resources that you don’t. Don’t forget to assign your meeples with tasks that suit their respective personalities, and give them everything they need to be content despite being cooped up in a tightly-packed space station.The game doesn't have a multiplayer mode (yet), but I can see the potential of having the game mode added in the future where players will be able to trade with each other and even raid other player’s stations to plunder resources. It’ll probably be somewhat similar to Minecraft’s multiplayer mode.
Overall, Meeple Station is definitely an early access game with plenty of potential. Despite the bugs and game issues, it is a rather fun sandbox game to play where you can build your own space station, explore the galaxy, mine and trade for resources, and manage your team of adorable meeples. If you’re interested, Meeple Station is currently available for purchase on Steam. Check it out!
World Chef
World Chef is a fun restaurant simulation game where you'll get to cook up a storm, serve your customers a wide variety of cuisines, have fun decorating your place with décor from a plethora of themes, while helping to restore your grandpa's restaurant to its former popularity!The game is very easy to get into and the gameplay is also easy to understand. The ultimate goal of the game is for you to build up the popularity of your restaurant so it can reach a 3-star rating, and you can slowly increase your popularity rating by placing decorations. However, the decor all costs cash so you'll need to cook some dishes and sell them for some profit.
Aside from this, there are plenty of other features that you can eventually unlock as you level up in this game. Each of these features provides you with something extra, be it the ability to attract celebrities to your restaurant, to gather exotic ingredients or even to upgrade your dishes so they can sell for more. World Chef is also a very social game, and this is evident in its somewhat unique, friends-driven gameplay.
World Chef is a really entertaining, free-to-play restaurant simulation game. Aside from the unique friends-based SOS feature, its gameplay is basically very similar to Dining Zoo so if you’ve enjoyed the latter, you’ll definitely love playing the former game.
