Cuphead vs The Binding of Isaac
Cuphead
Cuphead is a run and gun action game using the classic animation style of the 1930’s. A very distinctive game this combines fast paced action with boss beating abilities that make for a furious and fun game. You step into the shoes of brothers Cuphead and Mugman. They made a deal with the Devil and now they have to collect the souls of other people in debt to the man.This has created a really interesting game style, and along with your fire blasting fingers there are lots of special attacks and powerups that you can use from the coins you make in the levels. Each boss is unique and has its own abilities for you to overcome. The pacing of the game is really great and the artistic style is one not to be missed. All in all this is a fantastic action game full of fun.
The Binding of Isaac
The Binding of Isaac is a rogue-like dungeon crawler that has a rather dark and depressing theme. In this game, you play the role of Isaac, a human boy who had to flee for his life after his mother heard the voice of God asking her to sacrifice his son to him. However, in a rather weird twist, the basement Isaac ran into turned into a waking nightmare and is filled with insane enemies, his fears and of course, his mother.Despite the rather abstract story, the gameplay is surprisingly solid. You'll find many gross items that will grant Isaac new powers and change his being, allowing him to fight off hordes of enemies and bosses of varying abilities. Interestingly, the levels you fight in are randomly generated and this gives The Binding of Isaac a kind of replayability that rivals that of other famous dungeon crawling games. Depending on your actions as Isaac, you'll also unlock different endings as well.
The Binding of Isaac is definitely a unique sort of dungeon crawler that uses the gruesome element that Diablo has so perfectly wielded to disgust you while giving you sufficient variety in terms of Isaac's abilities and the abilities of the enemy you'll be facing. If this is the sort of game for you, you might be interested to try the game out.
