Orwell: Keeping an Eye on You and Cook Serve Delicious 3

Games that feel like work. >_<

Orwell: Keeping an Eye on You

Working for a government that allows spying on people for national security might sound like fun, until you play this game. In it you must track down potential terrorists by combing the internet for news articles and their socials and listening in to their chats and phone calls to build as complete a profile as you can on each of them and link them up on a neat looking digital crime web. It's quite novel at the start, but quickly becomes tedious as you repeat the process over and over. Oh no, don't put misinformation in the system because you'll be scolded again. Lol. Not recommended.

Cook Serve Delicious 3

Working out of a food truck is almost exactly like all those "bartending" games of selecting the right ingredients to mix into a drink. Only here you have multiple stations that can be doing different things on timers and in the time the van is driving between two catering points you get special orders that you need to make en route. Lots of timers in this game, and not a very good tutorial either. If the goal was to make it feel like "work" then, good job devs. I prefer games to be fun though, and this isn't.
