After Jacksmith: Papa's Freezeria, Wingeria, Pancakeria and the Other Sims Here
Published · 1 min read
The Flipline family
Jacksmith borrows its loop from Flipline's restaurant games: take the order, make the thing by hand, get rated. Papa's Freezeria, Papa's Pancakeria and Papa's Wingeria are the three of those on this site, and they play the same way the blacksmith does, with a queue of customers instead of warriors and sundaes, pancakes and wings instead of swords.
Other shop and craft sims
Barbershop Inc and Family Life Simulator run a business and a household respectively; Sort the Court puts you on a throne answering petitions; Digging Master is the idle mining game for anyone who wishes Jack could just dig his own ore.
Battle and defence
For the fighting half of Jacksmith without the forge: Cursed Treasure 2 and Castle Defender Saga are tower defence, Kingdom Heroes, King Rugni and War of Sticks are lane battles where you send troops, and Gladihoppers and Raft Wars Multiplayer are quick two-sided scraps.
Build and manage
Village Builder, Tiny Towers and The Final Earth 2 are the slow burners: set up income, expand, come back later.
Something to jump around in
Duck Life 3, Low's Adventure 2, Mekorama and a Scratch build of Super Mario cover the platform and puzzle side when you have had enough of clicking hammer marks.
