Darwin Project vs Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Darwin Project
Darwin Project is an early access, third-person battle royale game that combines the game show-theme from The Culling with the unique art style which made Fortnite Battle Royale so easily recognizable. Unlike most battle royale games where you'll have to compete against 99 other players to survive, this game only has 10 players, including yourself. However, the game spices things up with a ton of challenges, much like those featured in the Hunger Games, that are designed to push you to your limits.Not to mention, the game adds a nice tracking mechanism. Players in the game show will leave clues when they pass by an area and you can use those very clues to determine where your prey is heading to or hiding in. There are plenty of fun power-ups that you can collect, including temporary invisibility. Although you can't craft new weapons, the bow and shovel that you get can be upgraded to increase their deadliness.
Best yet, you can also play as the Director of the entire game show. As the Director, your goal is not to survive but to hype things up enough for the crowd to go wild. You are managing an exciting game show, after all. With feedback from the audience, you can decide which zones to drop a nuke on or which zone to freeze over, or even when to drop a "care package" for the participants to fight over.
Darwin Project manages to breathe new life into the slowly-stagnating battle royale genre. It is definitely a fun, thrilling and unique competitive MMO - one that fans of battle royale would just love to play.
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds has rapidly grown from being simply a belated April Fools' parody of the increasingly popular Battle Royal genre into a full-blown battle royale game itself (note the irony). The game has a fun crystalline-like graphical style and a gameplay that may remind you of Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)... basically meaning that although you cannot build stuff, you can drive vehicles, including helicopters.What sets this game apart from all the other battle royale games is how "not serious" the game takes itself. The silliness in this game is through the roof, making it an excellent game to goof around with friends. The game touts a "physics-based everything", giving rise to hilarious moments while playing, such as getting blown off the ledge you're barely standing on due to the recoil effect from your gun. Of course, like PUBG, there are tons of cosmetics for your "weirdo" character to wear, sometimes to comedic effect - a Gandalf-slash-samurai, anyone?
In the realm of competitive battle royale gaming, it's really nice to see a game such as Totally Accurate Battlegrounds taking a mickey out of the possibly-overhyped and heavily-marketed genre. The game is currently undergoing a major overhaul due to its shift from free-to-play to premium and will be adding in anti-cheat measure and matchmaking, as well as improving server operations. As such, if you're thinking of getting this game, you might want to wait a bit.
