Crusaders of Solaria vs Torchlight
Crusaders of Solaria
Crusaders of Solaria by R2 games is a fun and fast-paced browser MMORPG that's set in a tumultuous fantasy world of Solaria where it's paradise by day and is crawling with evil creatures at night. Playing as one of the two classes available - either a warrior or a mage, you'll set off on an exciting adventure to slay the biggest and baddest creatures in the region through the game's flashy combat sequence. Another interesting thing about this game is that all the premium items you can buy fromm the game shop only have a temporary effect, so this somewhat offset some of the more powerful items on sale, giving free-to-play players a fighting chance to gain lost ground.Crusaders of Solaria is a rather old, web-based casual MMORPG and the fact that it has managed to last this long is a testament to how entertaining it is to hundreds and thousands of players worldwide. So, if you have some free time on your hands, you might want to check this game out.
Torchlight
Torchlight is a fun dungeon crawling game that features an epic storyline, thrilling action and a loyal pet companion, which you can customize, to boot! Assemble a team of three heroes and descend into the monsters-filled caverns below the town in search of the valuable and rare ore, Ember, as well as plenty of riches and glory. You can even take a breather in between all the monster slaying to head off to a fishing pool and go fishing. The fishes you get are surprisingly powerful though - they can be fed to your loyal companion and turn it into powerful battle allies rather than just being a pack mule.Like most dungeon crawlers, randomization is key to the gameplay, giving players a fresh new experience everytime they replay the game, but of course, mod support also gives the game an even longer lifespan. To faciliate this replayability, the game even has a retirement system in place which allow you to pass down prized equipment to your new heroes as you "retire" the old one.
Torchlight may not have enjoyed a following that's large as Diablo, but the game has its own group of loyal fans and hardcore players who still play the game. The game itself feels so much more lighthearted than the dark demonic tones of the latter and is perfect for players who enjoy dungeon crawlers but dislike being scared silly by grotesque creatures of hell.
