Rune Factory: Frontier vs Taonga
Rune Factory: Frontier
Rune Factory: Frontier sends you to the frontier town of Trampoli where you are expected to set up your very own virtual farm. Desiogned for the Wii console, you can literally do everything in the game simply by using your Wii remote and nunchuk (classic controllers are compatible as well), be it tilling the land, fighting monsters or fishing. The game has a much improved interaction system where your interactions and relationships, including romantic ones, feel a lot more life-like than usual, adding the rare EQ element to the gameplay.Unlike the previous games, you don't need to recruit monsters or townsfolk to maintain your farm for you. Due to the game's dynamic ecosystem, symbiotic creatures called Runeys will help hasten the growth time and quality of the plants you produce. And of course, there are plenty of dungeons for you to dive into, monsters to fight, and rare items to loot.
Rune Factory: Frontier is a pretty entertaining game overall, especially if you've enjoyed any of their previous or later games, and is definitely worth your time and money.
Taonga
Taonga is a fun and interesting farm simulation and adventure game that may bring to mind games like the Island Experiment. In this game, you’ve just inherited a populated tropical island in the Pacific region from a mysterious ancestor that you didn’t even know you had, but you took everything in stride and set off to develop the island into a beautiful tropical farm and also to help out the local tribes who were struggling to make a living for themselves. There are plenty secrets for you to uncover as you explore the island and who know? You may even stumble upon some treasures!Taonga is a game that might be a bit slower paced although you'll start off with a ton of energy to spend, but the adventure element it adds to the gameplay does help to break the monotony of routine virtual farming. If you're looking for a farm game that's a stone's throw away from run-of-the-mill farm sims, then Taonga is the game to play. Play it now on Facebook!
