Creativerse vs Turmoil
Creativerse
Creativerse is a voxel-based, sandbox MMO game that's still relatively new on the internet. Available on Steam, the game may seem to be a Minecraft clone at first glance, but we assure you - it's most definitely not a clone despite retaining most of the core game concepts that had made Minecraft so popular.So, basically, you'll be mining for blocks out in the world and craft them into weapons, structures, tools (including mechanical wings that will allow you to fly) and the like at the respective crafting tables. Of course, there's also the not-so-minor detail of surviving to the next day unharmed and well-fed, which mainly involves you building up your own shelter and gathering foodstuff.
Unlike Minecraft though, Creativerse is more of an MMO since it has an interesting storyline, providing players with a sense of direction that isn't obviously present in Minecraft. You'll also have access to more convenience items such as the touchstone which will teleport you to a single pre-linked spawning location... and yes, the location can be set at your shelter as well.
So, if all of these sound great to you, well, be sure to download Creativerse on Steam now and check out the game. It's admittedly no Minecraft, but some may go as far out as to say that Creativerse is so much better.
Turmoil
Turmoil , developed by Gamious, is a tycoon-like simulation game where you play as one of four oil miners, all of which are hoping to get rich on what is supposedly "black gold". This game offers a charming yet humorous take on the 19th century oil rush in North American in addition to letting players participate in this momentous period of time. Bid against other entrepreneurs for land that potentially contain enough oil for you to strike it rich, dowse for oil deposits and build oil rigs to mine them. There are also two companies you can sell all the oil to, and depending on the prices they offer, it's best to choose the most profitable time to sell.Of course, as you drill for and sell oil, the money you spend in town will help it develop and grow. In return, you can grab a ton of beneficial upgrades for a price, which, in turn, will help you earn even more money. Eventually, you can even buy town stocks and try your luck at becoming the mayor!
In addition to being incredibly addictive to play, Turmoil is a game that perfectly embodies the crazed mentality of the oil rush back then (and perhaps even now). Granted at not all game mechanics are realistic - it is a game after all, but if you love tycoon-like simulation games, you'll definitely enjoy playing this one.
