Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace vs Silent Hill 2
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.
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to Silent Hill, but instead of trying to continue its predecessor's storyline, the game thrusts you into a whole new adventure as you join James Sunderland whose young wife, Mary, had just passed away due to a tragic event. With his life shattered before it had even begun, he hadn't been able to move on... and three years later, he received a mysterious letter that's apparently from his deceased wife asking him to return to the dark realm of Silent Hill where he will eventually find out the true nature of her death.Silent Hill 2 provides players with a much larger environment to explore in, including many of the previous closed off areas. The game even added special effects, such as real-time weather, fog, morphing and shadows, that is guaranteed to make you jump right off your seat. If you're interested in this game, you might want to check out the Silent Hill Re-Mastered Collection which combines Silent Hill 2 and 3 together in one neat package.
