Creative Destruction vs TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
Creative Destruction
Creative Destruction is a popular mobile, battle royale game that seems to be the perfect merge between the mobile versions of Fortnite and PUBG, while being able to add some special spice of its own. Featuring destructible environments that you can use to your advantage, the gameplay is intense as it is fun, allowing you to gather resources and use them to build barriers to hide behind and traps to ambush your enemies. The game also features both first-person and third-person view, aim-assist (you'll want to have that on), and many more.Creative Destruction places a lot of emphasis on the clever use of your game environment and on building strategic defenses and barriers, though not so much on the actual gunning (hence, the aim assist). This battle royale game may not appeal to hardcore shooters but if you like to play intelligently and often come up with ingenious ways to battle your opponents, then you'll want to try this game out.
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale is the standalone battle royale game mode for the mobile survival game, Thrive Island. Set in a pretty huge open world where you can craft a large variety of items and build shelters or even big buildings as a base of sorts at night. This game has a lot more "survival" gameplay rather than the somewhat intense "battle royale" fights since you are expected to gather resources and scavenge loot just so you can have the best gear to prepare you for the final fight for the title of victor royale!Unlike other battle royale games that have the iconic map-shrinking feature, this game did away with that. Instead, you need to hunt the land for your opponents, which may take awhile, but can be fun when you catch someone by surprise. Interestingly, the game even has a zombie mode where you can turn your slain foes into zombies. Not sure how this fit into the battle royale gameplay though.
All in all, TIO: Battlegrounds Royale feels a lot like a hardcore survival game rather than a battle royale mainly because it places emphasis on building a good shelter, gathering raw resources (as opposed to finding ready-made items) and well, crafting. The game is also a work-in-progress so you can expect a less-polished game that could use your feedback to improve.
