Anno Online vs Europa Universalis III
Anno Online
Anno Online is an amazing, free-to-play browser MMO strategy game based on the renowned Anno game series by Ubisoft. The gameplay in this game is quite similar to The Settlers Online where you need to strategically build your empire and trade the resources you get with other players. The sole exception between these two games is Anno Online's famous, grid-based naval battles.In some way, Anno Online is a more historically accurate version of The Settlers Online where the goal is not to annihilate your opponents but to manage your kingdom well and help it to grow. We can confidently say that this is a game that will definitely engage players who love the genre for hours.
Europa Universalis III
Europa Universalis III follows in the footsteps of its predecessors by offering players with one of the best grand strategy game they have ever experienced. The game dives deeply into each of its four major aspects - exploration, trade, warfare and diplomacy. Nation-building is as flexible and as in-depth as ever. Each country in the game's over 250 countries is also historically accurate, so as most of their global events and famous figures.However, the sequel has had some changes made to further improve the experience that it can offer. Some of these changes include a nicer 3D topological map of the world rather than the flat 2D version as well as the availability of a cooperative multiplayer mode where players get to work together - like an actual government - to govern a single nation. You can even start the gameplay whenever you like between the years 1453 and 1820, and freely customize your game.
That's good and all, but the best part about all of this is the thriving modding community that is constantly churning out new and exciting content for you to have fun with. Sounds awesome? Well, you simply must check out this amazing game.
