Age of Conan: Unchained vs Solitaire Tales Live
Age of Conan: Unchained
Age of Conan: Unchained is an MMORPG that's based on the timeless classic comic and TV series, Conan the Barbarian. Featuring one of the best fantasy-themed lore, the game also has a very unique action-based combat system that, despite its steep learning curve, is comparable to that of TERA... though, we'd say that combat in this game is much more varied. You can weave spells, attempt to capture battlekeeps with massive siege machines and even enjoy some good ol' mounted combat that is surprisingly not at all too clunky. However, you should bear in mind that this MMO has been around for quite some time, so the graphics in this game might be a tad bit old fashioned.What we love the most about Age of Conan is that the game actually rewards players who go off the beaten track and explore the secret corners of the world that questlines will never bring you to. The shift from being a subscription-based MMO to becoming a free-to-play MMO has been very well-received too, mainly because it injects a certain amount of much-needed players into its population and well, it allows newcomers to try the game out at no cost.
All in all, Age of Conan is a solid MMORPG that is very well-suited for players who like to explore and a challenge. Hardcore fans of Conan may want to try this game out as well, even if it's only to experience the different storylines in the game.
Solitaire Tales Live
Solitaire Tales Live is the highly anticipated sequel to one of the most popular solitaire games on Facebook, Solitaire Tales. Developed by Qublix, this game one-ups the original game by being a whole lot more competitive. You will be able to compete with other players by collecting as many Golden Cards as you can - a gameplay that'll definitely feel similar to fans of Solitaire Tales. Scores for both you and your opponent will be prominently shown so you'll know how well you are doing in comparison. There are also special boosters like the Joker, Undo and more that you can buy to gain an advantage over your opponent. Winning matches will unlock new castles, and hence, new backgrounds as well.Players can also participate in a tournament with 8 other players for a chance at winning a ton of prizes... that is as long as you can come up on top after defeating all the players you are matched up against. But of course, players who just want to play some solitaire can enjoy a more casual match with an AI opponent too.
Solitaire Tales Live is designed with competition in mind and in that regard, the game has been incredibly successful. It's a great alternative game for players who love Solitaire Tales but fancy testing their skills against another human player.
