Game Recommendation: Simmiland

Ever wanted the power of God in your hands? To create or destroy in seconds? Well, welcome to Simmiland! Simmiland is a fun God simulator that lets you do just that. The decisions you make as God affect the environment and the people that worship you. This game can be downloaded from Steam for a mere five dollars.

Graphics

This game’s graphics aren’t the best. It is super pixelated. If you are into pixel games though then you are going to love this game. It’s like you’re playing a game for the original NES.

The gameplay is easy enough to understand. You are given a handful of cards, and each card represents an action you can perform as God. Each action cost faith points. To earn faith points you will have to answer your people’s prayers. Let’s say someone prays for a berry bush. If you have a plant card you will be able to create a berry bush and earn a good amount of faith points.

Looks like a nice place to get away from it all.

Godlike Power

Remember how I said that your decisions affect the environment and people that worship you? Well, I wasn’t kidding. You see there are many different types of cards, and you can use these cards in many different types of ways. Let’s go back to that plant card. If you place it on forest land and you will get a berry bush, but if you place that card on swamp land you will get a poison berry bush. Place that same card again on desert land and you will have created a cactus, so and and so forth.

Want to change the land? Different weather cards can create different types of land (forest, swamp, desert, snowy mountains etc.) I bet your wondering how your people will survive these conditions. Use a sample or inspect card and your people will start building houses and making tools to mine, cut down trees, and fish.

Messing around with the weather is always fun.

Tips and Tricks

Here are some basic tips and tricks to help you get started. Firstly, to create everything this game has to offer, don’t be afraid to experiment. Mixing cards with the different landscapes will help you discover everything in this game. If you feel like you need some help though then don’t worry, you’re in luck. Looking through the compendium and achievements will give you hints and clues as to what you need to do to discover new things in the game. When you do discover new things you will unlock an achievement and earn yourself some stars. You can then spend your hard earned stars in the card shop. The card shop may have cards that you already have, but don’t let that stop you from buying them. They may become useful when answering prayers.

Simmiland is a game like no other. I really loved playing it. It’s cool how the people and landscape react to the choices you make when playing different cards. Even if your not a fan of pixelated games you should still give this game a chance. For a small price of five dollars you can buy it on Steam. You won’t regret playing this game.

Game Recommendation – Idle Life Sim

Idle Life Sim is…well…you guessed it…a life simulator. It is similar to the game Animal Crossing but it is also unique in its own way. I have been playing this game on my Android phone and I am hooked. Maybe because of its a casual game or because It plays like an upgraded Animal Crossing. Either way, you’re going to have fun playing this game.

STORY

In this game, you play as a girl or boy who has just moved out of grandmas house. She has bought you your own house as you are ready to start your life out in the real world.

GAMEPLAY

At the start of the game, you get to choose how you want your person to look like. Which is standard for most life sims. After that, you get to choose what career you would like to have. This is how you make money. The cool thing about having a career in this game is that you can be promoted. You see as seconds pass you are always earning money. You use the money to do tasks that are related to your career. Once you have done a certain number of tasks you get promoted. Which means you earn more as seconds go by. It also means that you have earned a new title for yourself. For example, when I played this game I chose to be an artist as my career. At one point my title was caricaturist but when I got promoted my title became a mural painter.

What kind of life sim would this game be if it didn’t have customization?

Spending money to boost your career isn’t the only reason to spend it. You can spend your money on clothes to change up your look. You can also buy furniture for your house. This is why I said this game is similar to Animal Crossing. The difference though is that when you buy and place furniture in your home a meter gets filled.

The purpose of this meter is that when you have filled it enough times a new bigger house becomes available to buy. Saving money can be hard sometimes. Especially when furniture prices go up as you play the game. One thing that helps with this is the fact that you earn money even when you’re not playing the game. But only for an hour. Another thing that helps you earn more money is that your grandma will visit you every now and then and give you some money.

GRAPHICS

This game is fully in 3D. The style of the graphics is similar to Animal Crossing. If you saw gameplay of this game without knowing what this game was called you would think it was an Animal Crossing game.

I am recommending this game because I love games that let you customize or decorate your base (or in this case your home). Although decorating your home is the main aspect of this game, I really like the career-building, money-making part of it too. Casual gamers of any age can enjoy this game. It is available on the Google Play Store free of charge.
