Deeeep.io vs Zen Koi
Deeeep.io
Deeeep.io is a really unique IO game which features a different sort of progression system while retaining the competitive aspect of all games within the new genre. In this game, there are many animal characters for you to play as, each of which has their own unique range of abilities. However, unlike most games, you can't choose the animals you play - You get to work your way up the food chain instead. If you do really well, you may end up being the whales, orcas, and sharks a.k.a. the top predators in that stretch of the sea.The game even has plenty of fun places to explore, and sometimes even hide in, just to avoid larger predators. Some animal characters, such as penguins and seagulls, even allow you to head up to the surface so you can battle other players there as well.
Deeeep.io isn't exactly like your conventional IO game. In fact, similar to Starve.io, it is part of a wave of innovative games which retained the sort of gameplay simplicity that can only be associated to IO games and yet provide players with a myriad of interesting games and game modes to play in.
If you do plan on giving this game a try, you might want to play the browser version instead. As reported by many players, the mobile version of the game has a lot of glitches.
Zen Koi
Zen Koi is a new breed of simulation game where you get to raise, breed, and collect beautiful Koi fishes. Featuring a casual gameplay accompanied with a calm and meditative soundtrack, this game is perfectly-designed to wind you down after a tough day. The gameplay is quite in-depth too for a casual game. Aside from feeding your Kois and helping them reach their mythical dragon form, you can find other Kois to breed (the game's more social aspect) to produce offsprings with unique patterns to add to your collection. There are hundreds of Japanese carp for you to collect, including some rare ones. Best yet, you can share the Koi patterns you have with your friends!Zen Koi's rapid rise to fame only proves that being an indie game doesn't really hamper a game's popularity as long as the gameplay is attractive to the players it is targeting. That being said, if you're looking for a soothing game, Zen Koi definitely fits the criteria. Try it now!
