Battle Breakers vs Sword Art Online: Memory Defrag
Battle Breakers
Battle Breakers is a new free-to-play turn-based RPG from Epic Games. Here, you’ll fight against monsters from the sky who trapped the planet’s heroes. Your role is to gather a team to take the planet back from them. Use a variety of heroes with different abilities and use elemental affinities to your advantage.Granted that it isn’t a battle royale, but much like the Fortnite, it innovates and delivers new yet refined gameplay mechanics. Available on Android, iOS, and on PC through the Epic Games Store, this turn-based strategy game is a breath of fresh air to the rather crowded hero-collecting subgenre. Though its gameplay loop appears way too different and even uncharacteristic, it’s extremely fun, simple to pick up, and in a way, works seamlessly. All these, paired up with high production value and hilarious dialogue, deliver quite an experience.
Overall, Battle Breakers is a must-try game especially if you’re looking for a new hero-collector. Though it’s still a little early to say that it beats its peers off the park, its fresh take on dungeon-crawling and its robust roster of heroes to collect makes it something you need to get your hands on.
Sword Art Online: Memory Defrag
Sword Art Online: Memory Defrag is a rather unique mobile MMORPG that follows the popular anime and light novel series of the same name, Sword Art Online. In this game, you'll be playing as a low-level Kirito and will be attempting to escape from the VR MMORPG that you are trapped in by going through all 100 floors of the Aincrad castle. Aside from its storyline, the majority of its characters are also based off from the actual anime series, including all the original voice actors. Best yet, you can actually recruit these familiar characters to your team of heroes through a fun gacha-like system before heading off to battle both AI enemies and other human players alike. After all, in this game, your team's survival is the only thing that matters!That said, the most unique part about this game is that the game interestingly combines elements from a standard 2D side-scrolling action game with all the complexities and nuances of a casual role-playing game, which results in a one-of-a-kind gaming experience that fans of SAO and/or RPGs can really get behind. If you love SAO or maybe mobile MMORPGs in general, you'll definitely enjoy playing this game.
