Merchant vs Sunken Secrets
Merchant
Merchant is a fun little idle game that's designed to be played on the side, while you're doing something else on the computer. In the game, you'll need to hire heroes who you will then send out on adventures to gather crafting materials. The materials obtained can then be turned into numerous types of armor and weapons, which you can in turn equip on your heroes or sell them off for a tidy profit. There are two main ways for you to sell your goods - you can either put it up for sale in your shop or you can fulfill the orders of passing merchants and heroes.Although the game starts out as pretty fun, the progression in this game gradually becomes rather grindy after a while - imagine: sending the same hero on the same quest will require the same amount of clicks as sending the hero on a new quest or even sending a new hero. Some automation would be great here, especially considering that the game's an idle game.
So, despite the fun concept and gameplay, its progression can truly kill your interest in the game. That being said, if you just want a simple game to play as you watch Netflix or YouTube on your computer, Merchant might just be the kind of game for you!
Sunken Secrets
Sunken Secrets is a pretty unique farm simulation game mainly because most of the gameplay takes place under the sea! With magic as the main way to uncurse buildings so you can restore them, you'll need to build a variety of magic-producing structures to collect magic from. Being a farm game, you can also plant, grow and harvest a variety of fictional crops - you're already growing stuff underwater... what you'd expect, right? - which you can then turn into other products like delicious beverages and foodstuff. Aside from being able to trade with other players through the market, Sunken Secrets also has an exploration aspect since you can discover and travel to different islands.If you love playing farm sims with a dash of adventure in it (like Fairy Kingdom, for example), then you'll love Sunken Secrets! You can play the game by downloading it from Big Fish Games or on your mobile devices (Android and iOS).
