CastleStorm vs Infinity Blade
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!
Infinity Blade
Infinity Blade is an epic RPG for iOS that was developed on an engine that many triple-A standalone games are built on. Based on the novel series of the same name by Brandon Sanderson, the game has a somewhat cliché yet inspirational storyline where you play as the hero of the people who embarks on a journey to dethrone the ruthless God King and vanquish his legion of Titans in hopes of finally ending the legacy of darkness he has created.The gameplay in Infinity Blade is both intuitive and easy to learn. With a mere swipe of the finger, for example, you can attack, dodge, block and cast spells to slay your enemy. The character customization in this game is astonishingly in-depth as well, featuring a seriously wide range of equipment to acquire, skills to master and a hero to level up.
Infinity Blade proves to other game developers and gamers alike of what is possible even on the seemingly “casual” mobile platform. If you own an iOS device and enjoys a good RPG, this game might just be the game you need!
