Deadlight vs Urban Dead
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.
Urban Dead
Urban Dead is a mainly text-based MMO game set in a post-apocalyptic city that you can play straight from your browser. Assume the role as an urban survivor trapped in a quarantined city just trying to get by. However, unlike most games, Urban Dead is an MMO and as such, you'll encounter other players as you wander from place to place hoping to scavenge something - anything - that might help you. These players can be friendly or hostile (though, it's more often the case the latter).You can even set up a center of operations, so to speak, by clearing a place out and lock the place down. Other players might try to break into your base though, so it might be best to recruit a few trustworthy players to help you maintain your base and keep it as well as everything you hoard in it safe from any looters. Of course, there are also zombies that will attack your base and you, if you are unlucky enough to bump into one or an entire horde.
Urban Dead is a quite different text-based game admittedly, but it is still very addictive to play. It might be best to play with friends though due to how its base building feature is structured and well, there is always safety in numbers.
