CastleStorm vs Crowfall
CastleStorm
CastleStorm is a 2D tower defense game with a very unique twist. It features a combination of sandbox-like castle-building feature - a feature that some may liken to Hustle Castle - with a challengingly strategic gameplay, where you not only have to defend your own castle from being destroyed and your flag captured; you will also need to deploy troops - there are plenty to choose from - to attack your opponent's castle by first battering down the gates, and capturing the flag.Unlike many other similar games, you can also deploy your hero into the battlefield to grant your troops some morale support. You can personally control your hero and he will have a range of skills that you can use as well. Interestingly, when not in "hero mode", you can use the many siege weapons available to hurl heavy objects at the enemy's troops or castle à la Angry Birds-style.
The game focuses mainly on single-player in the past but it recently han unveiled a PvP multiplayer game mode where players build up their castle and let other players take a shot at it.
CastleStorm is an incredibly addictive game to play, especially if you're a huge fan of tower defense-like games; and not only that, the game has plenty of hilarious characters and dialogues which will at the very least make you chuckle from time to time. It's a game worth buying (for PC, Xbox and PS4. The game is free-to-play on mobile platforms) and you can even play it on any major platform you prefer!
Crowfall
Crowfall boasts as being the world's first throne war simulator where it mixes the best elements from the popular "Game of Thrones" TV show with MMOs like EVE Online. The game features an open world PvP, a player-driven economy, action-based combat and destructible environments which you can then use to your advantage when fortifying your own castle or attacking your enemy's castle. Crowfall's campaigns are pretty unique due to its varying campaign rulesets as well. Each different ruleset will give you an entirely different experience of the game. The game difficulty will even gradually increase over time, making teamwork paramount to survival.Crowfall also has a sandbox element to it in the form of its Eternal Kingdom. In this game, you'll be given a piece of land in an instanced zone to build your empire. Much like a Tetris or a jigsaw puzzle game, you can then buy extra parcels of land that comes in different shapes and sizes and add them to your Eternal kingdom to expand it. You could even grant your land to appointed vassals to rule as they please as long as they pay their dues to you, the King or Queen, and interact with your "subjects" turning your Eternal Kingdom into some sort of a social hub for you and your friends or guildmates to hang out.
Let's not forget about Crowfall's ridiculous (in a good way) amount of character class customization and advancement, allowing you to build your character literally whichever way you like.
Sounds like just the game you've been looking for? Well, if you would like to experience a Game of Thrones-like political intrigue coupled with some epic warfare that plays out on a massive scale, Crowfall's the game you'd want to keep a close eye on.
