Rune Factory 4 vs Tiny Pixel Farm
Rune Factory 4
Rune Factory 4 is the latest installment (which came out 4 years ago) from the main Rune Factory game franchise. In this game, you can play as whoever you like, be it governing as a prince or a princess, a daring adventurer or a simple farmer. Cultivate the land and fill it with a wide variety of crops, go fishing, or fight monsters in the game's many trapped dungeons. Like the previous games, you can recruit local townsfolk and even befriended wild monsters to help you with your farm or even to join your adventuring team so you'll have some extra help when you're fighting hostile monsters. You can even fall in love, get married and have a virtual child of your own! With whole new adventures, storylines and characters, Rune Factory is designed to appeal to beginners and veterans of the game alike.
Tiny Pixel Farm
Tiny Pixel Farm is an idle farming game that is unlike any other. Backed with a heartfelt story about an elderly farmer whose farmland is slowly being claimed by greedy corporate goons, in this game, you play as the grandchild of the said farmer and you are determined to reclaim what was rightfully your family's.Although the gameplay is generally idle in nature, the idle part of the game isn't exactly textbook-styled. As opposed to fully automating everything, you still need to put in some "work" for instance, by swiping and tapping on your animals to collect produce, on your hay-producing farms to collect hay, on your pets to collect exp gems, and others. Aside from the well-design and satisfying progression system in this game, there is an insane number of animals you can keep at the farm too.
The game is also very "video ad-heavy" mainly because you will always be given an option to watch video ads in exchange for instantly completing something, be it a construction process or selling all the goods in your shop. However, what I really like about the game is how it gives you a heads-up whenever a full-screen ad is coming up and it also thanks you after you've watched a video ad. More games should seriously take a page out of this game's book and do this!
All in all, although this game does require a good (middle range to high-end) mobile device to run, Tiny Pixel Farm brings a ton of innovation to the idle gaming genre and the game does it so brilliantly well. If you enjoy idle games, farm games or both, you might want to give this game a try.
