Despot's Game vs Sparklite
Despot's Game
Despot's Game is a whimsical roguelike with an auto-battler-style combat and a pretty strategic gameplay. In this game, you’ve found yourself in the middle of a battle-to-the-death contest organized by a maniacal talking computer screen. Luckily, you won’t be partaking in the battles yourself. Instead, you “recruit” puny humans and equip them with various weapons so they could survive enemy encounters and descend deeper to the next level where tougher enemies reside. There are boss fights, numerous strategic ways to upgrade your “unwilling gladiators” and to produce more food to feed your army, and funny encounters with the denizens of the arena dungeon you’re in.Sparklite
Sparklite is a top-down action-adventure RPG where you’ll battle various creatures corrupted by the rampant mining of Sparklite, a powerful energy source and the life force of the world of Geodia, as well as the very miners led by the mysterious villain called “Baron”, who used those very ores to fuel their war machines. Battle through throngs of enemies in constantly changing landscape, gather sparklite along with other upgrades to use, and bring the fight to Baron and his foremen before it’s too late!The game may be somewhat grindy and repetitive in the long run, but Sparklite is a brilliant, well-made game that is definitely worth its asking price.
