7 Days to Die vs The Walking Dead: Our World
7 Days to Die
7 Days to Die is a pretty hardcore zombie survival game set in a vast, randomly-generated, post-apocalytic world where you are apparently the sole survivor (unless you are playing it on multiplayer mode with your friends). Being the hardcore game that it is, you will literally start the game with almost nothing to your name. You'll be required to collect resources from the environment and scavenge for items by scouring the many abandoned buildings while trying to avoid attracting any zombies' attention in order to craft a variety of useful items as well as to... well, stay alive! You can also customize your gameplay by adjusting the settings, which honestly we would recommend for your first playthrough because the zombies in this game are actually really tough to kill.Aside from its "lose everything when you die" hardcore-ness (which is adjustable to be less hardcore-ish via the settings), the most interesting part about this game is the fact that you can choose a nice building to turn into your base by clearing out the zombies in it, barricade it the best you can and start hoarding a ton of materials and supplies. The only major downside to the game though is its cringy, old-timey graphics. Sometimes, collision doesn't work as well.
Besides the comically bad graphics (for this day and age anyway, but bear in mind that the game's indie), 7 Days to Die is definitely a game that will appeal to hardcore survival fans as the game can be modified to be your worst zombie nightmore or it can be toned down to a somewhat casual post-apocalyptic adventure. Even so, do you think you've got what it takes to be the ultimate survivor?
The Walking Dead: Our World
The Walking Dead: Our World is a fun geo-based augmented reality game that is inspired by the hit TV show, The Walking Dead. Following in the successful footsteps of Pokemon Go, the game features a simple tap-based gameplay where you complete missions by killing zombies, rescuing trapped people and bringing them to your shelter, and even fight other hostile survivors. You won't be doing all of this alone either! The game lets you recruit and upgrade a host of familiar companions to fight alongside you, in addition to collecting powerful weapons and improving them.Unlike Pokemon Go where you will need to travel to a location to collect "resources" like pokeballs and berries or to search for new pokemon, in this game, you can enjoy a sufficient portion of the game without actually budging from your spot. However, there are some aspects that still require some traveling, such as survivor rescue. Players can band together here as well, and this is advantageous mainly because you can basically "teleport" to any location in the world where members of your group have put up a flare.
The Walking Dead: Our World has a really great game design and is backed by one of the most popular TV shows around (short of Game of Thrones, of course). However, the game can only run properly on mid-high to high-end devices, and well, it might be hard to get fans of the show to jump on the bandwagon and try the game out since the demographics for this game are very different from Pokemon Go, which mainly appeals to teens to young adults today.
