Despot's Game vs Torchlight
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.
Torchlight
Torchlight is a fun dungeon crawling game that features an epic storyline, thrilling action and a loyal pet companion, which you can customize, to boot! Assemble a team of three heroes and descend into the monsters-filled caverns below the town in search of the valuable and rare ore, Ember, as well as plenty of riches and glory. You can even take a breather in between all the monster slaying to head off to a fishing pool and go fishing. The fishes you get are surprisingly powerful though - they can be fed to your loyal companion and turn it into powerful battle allies rather than just being a pack mule.Like most dungeon crawlers, randomization is key to the gameplay, giving players a fresh new experience everytime they replay the game, but of course, mod support also gives the game an even longer lifespan. To faciliate this replayability, the game even has a retirement system in place which allow you to pass down prized equipment to your new heroes as you "retire" the old one.
Torchlight may not have enjoyed a following that's large as Diablo, but the game has its own group of loyal fans and hardcore players who still play the game. The game itself feels so much more lighthearted than the dark demonic tones of the latter and is perfect for players who enjoy dungeon crawlers but dislike being scared silly by grotesque creatures of hell.
