Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods vs Lapse: A Forgotten Future
Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods
Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods is the exciting sequel to the hit God game, Black & White. You still get to play the role of an unnamed god who now has Eden under control but apparently, this time around, the Aztecs has raised a new undead god through a massacre due to the massive number of human sacrifices made. The new god has its own army of the undead skeletons and other equally undead monstrous creatures to lead them. With this challenge in mind, you now have to either convince these death worshippers to defect to your side with proper nudging and encouragement or you could simply force them to return to worshipping you. Of course, the undead god won't be happy with your actions and will do whatever it takes to keep its own inflow of prayers going.Although you won't be able to obtain a digital copy of Black & White 2: Battle of the Gods, there are still hard copies of the game that you can buy off of Amazon... probably second discs though. That said, the game is amazing for its time and if you love god games, this is a classic that you'll definitely want to own.
Lapse: A Forgotten Future
Lapse: A Forgotten Future is a simple yet thought-provoking mobile game where you play as a president of a nation that's set in a post-apocalyptic world. As someone in such a powerful position, you have the power to make or break your country simply with a swipe of your finger while making decisions based on what you think is best for your people. There are 4 important stats you'll need to keep an eye on while you make your decisions as well. Every decision you make will impact these stats either by increasing or lowering them. You will want to keep them balanced and away from the bottom line. Once any one of these stats reached zero, your game will end.Unlike what many players may think, Lapse has several endings and you can reach them depending on the choices you make. Every choice has its own consequences, though not all of them can be immediately discerned.
The popularity that Lapse: A Forgotten Future has enjoyed is not very surprising since it has a gameplay which may bring to mind other morally-gray games, such as Paper, Please! If you like games that will challenge you to think, this is a game you'll want to try out!
