Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace vs Inscryption
Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace
Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace is a story-driven, party-based adventure RPG complete with unique gridless turn-based combat, and a creepy Lovecraftian theme. In this game, you get to control a ragtag team of investigators with varying experiences and talents. The goal here is to track down the mysterious cultists who are involved in the murder of Professor Tillinghast during what seems to be a sacrificial ritual. Will you be able to find out what’s really going on and who’s to blame for the murder?As someone who has not played the board game version of Arkham Horror before, this turn-based adventure RPG is a pretty great introduction. I absolutely love the horror-themed storytelling here and the voice acting is simply brilliant. Since I’m an avid fan of turn-based RPGs, the gridless gameplay here is unique enough to help it stand out. That said, the game is unfortunately marred by several glitches, especially the annoying camera glitch which can only be fixed by reloading a previous checkpoint.
So, to sum up, Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace may not be triple-A level, but it’s a solidly fun game in spite of its bugs and is still worth the purchase.
Inscryption
Inscryption is turning out to be one of the biggest surprise hits of 2021, and it’s no surprise as to why. This roguelike card game blends deep deck-building elements merged with escape room puzzles and psychological horror. Paired with its rather unique and terrifying art style, it provides a gaming experience that just can’t be compared with anything else.The game is composed of three acts; one and three are card battlers, while the 2nd is a pixel-art, top-down RPG. You will be able to grow and strengthen your deck throughout your adventures. However, to get this done, you’ll need to go head-to-head against bosses and other opponents, taking part in highly-contested card battles. Don’t be intimidated by its status as a card game: it’s relatively simple to play yet has a certain depth to it.
Inscryption further impresses via its overall art direction. Every aspect, ranging from the environment to the card designs, looks like it can give even those with strong hearts the goosebumps. In addition, its story revolves around the card game and provides a feeling of both mystery and madness.
All in all, Inscryption is undoubtedly something both card game enthusiasts and those who love the thrill of horror experiences should dive into. Give it a shot and experience a card game horror story you never thought you’d ever encounter.
