Battle Online: Survival Island vs Black Survival
Battle Online: Survival Island
Battle Online: Survival Island is an early access battle royale game where you have to fight against other players to survive in a gradually shrinking map. Each map in the game can house up to 15 players at a time while providing players with a ton of resources that are stored in wooden crates to pick up and collect. There isn't any crafting or base building though - just some first person shooting. You cannot loot the corpse of a player you've killed either.Granted that Battle Online: Survival Island still has a very long way to go to be remotely comparable to PUBG, this game is still pretty fun in its rudeimentary kind of way. Not to mention, by playing the game and giving the developer some feedback, you can actually help the dev turn this game into a much better mobile battle royale game for you to enjoy.
Black Survival
Black Survival is a battle royale/survival game that will bring to mind games like PUBG and movies like the Hunger Games. However, as opposed to having plenty of players in a single game, Black Survival only houses up to 10 players on a deserted island. The island itself is segmented into 22 areas, each of which will gradually become "restricted areas" that drastically drain your health if you insist on staying in that area. It's also great that the game has a crafting aspect, allowing you to create hundreds of different weapons, tools and food items.Best yet, the game has an amazing myriad of characters for you to play as, each of them have their own backstories for you to discover. Characters are not all free, though you can literally play all of them by patiently waiting for the game's free character rotation. And of course, it also happens to be an anime-themed game... how many anime-themed battle royale games have you seen so far? (The answer is none except this one, by the way)
So, to sum up, Black Survival may have come out at just the right moment when the Battle Royale hype is at its peak thanks to popular games like PUBG and Fortnite Battle Royale, but it managed to innovate the genre and provide players with a fresh new perspective to the genre. You can even play this game for free while you're on the go!
