Restaurant Paradise vs Tropico 4
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!
Tropico 4
Tropico 4 is the fourth installment of the Tropico nation-building/simulation game franchise where you get to play as the all-powerful El Presidente of a tropical island country. This game is focused more on the politcal intrigue this time around as you'll need to play your cards right with your people and with the other global superpowers in hopes of keeping your power and of course, to keep increasing the size of your off-shore bank account. You can now appoint ministers to help you push through unpopular policies so you won't have to deal with the resulting fallout, and draft up national agendas to deal with challenges ranging from needs from your own Tropicans to an ongoing natural disaster that is decimating your population and your country.The economy aspect of the game has alos been reworked to allow for a robust trading system and to build economic ties with other nations. Tropico 4 is even more social media-linked, making it incredibly convenient for you to post your latest creations to either Twitter or Facebook with a click of a button.
As some of the fans have noticed, Tropico 4 is made slighter easier for new players to get into. Unlike the previous games where money can really be tight, the game's trading system opens up a whole new inflow of cash into your country in exchange for stuff you have too much of. It's kind of a win-win situation if you ask me, but some players might scoff at the reduced difficulty of this version of Tropico.
