Deadlight vs Left4Dead
Deadlight
Deadlight is a dark game where you are a ranger called Randall Wayne in a zombie infested world in search of your wife and daughter. Now in Seattle you meet up with a group of refugees heading for what is known to be the last place left: Safe Point. Here your adventure begins, where you must avoid the Shadows (zombies) and the vicious New Law. And this is just the start of your story in this amazing homage to old style side scrolling games.As opposed to most zombie games, here you need to avoid and hide as much as possible as your weapons and supplies are limited. There are lots of cunning traps, places for you to climb, hide and destroy the zombies in your way. The design of the game really grabs you and its many layers and textures really make for a great experience.
Left4Dead
Left4Dead is among one of the very first popular zombie-themed shooters that has evolved from being simply a single player experience into a multiplayer game that almost every 90s gamer have played in LAN sessions or at cyber cafes... or have at least heard of it. Developed by Valve, the game features a wide variety of zombies, each with their own special abilities; relatable characters and an urgency to reach the next safe house due to the waves after waves of zombies that make you feel like you are actually trying to fight for your own life! There are plenty of interesting locations and unique scenarios for you to enjoy, allowing players to break the monotony of fending off endless hordes of zombies.Once you're done with the campaign, there is even a multiplayer aspect which will allow you to play with your friends against another team of your friends as either the human survivors or as the ravenous zombies. Admittedly, the multiplayer mode is the perfect addition to the game as it drastically expanded the game's lifespan.
All in all, Left4Dead is the first of a hugely popular series of games that many are still clamoring for a sequel until today. The graphics and gameplay may feel rather outdated in this day and age but if you have a soft spot for "old but gold" games, this is one of the more modern classics that you should really try.
