Durango: Wild Lands vs State of Decay
Durango: Wild Lands
Durango: Wild Lands , developed by Nexon, is an open world survival game that is set in a primitive time, and yet, due to some weird time warp, you will still have access to modern-day weapons and other items. The game features an in-depth crafting system where you can convert the resources you've painstakingly accumulated into better goods, tools, or even as building parts to construct your home base. Unlike Last Day on Earth: Survival or Jurassic Survival, this game also provides players with trading system that is pretty much player-driven, plenty of new islands to explore, as well as exciting real-time co-op battles against enemy clans and huge dinosaurs.Although the game is still in closed beta, it has shown so much potential to be an even more addictive game than Last Day on Earth: Survival due to its open world gameplay. In fact, it feels a lot like one of those massive standalone RPGs that you play in PC or consoles which have been somehow condensed into the relatively tiny mobile device in your hand. So, if you're interested to give the game a try, you can try to become a beta tester by signing up on the website or you can stay tuned to updates from the game by subscribing to its newsletter.
State of Decay
State of Decay is a pretty unique zombie survival RPG that doesn't only feature a vast open world for you to explore but also allows you to build a base, fortify it and recruit survivors (NPCs), each with their own personalities and characteristics, that you encounter to join you. You can even ask them to join you as you venture out into the world to find more items. The game's crafting system is pretty in-depth as well along with an interesting scavenging system that allows you to speed up the process of scavenging but at the cost of potentially attracting surrounding zombies to swarm to your location. Aside from the many weapons available, tere are even a wide variety of vehicles for you to drive around and ram zombies with.Granted that the game still has some bugs and that the developers had earned a pretty bad rep for apparently releasing a patch as a separate DLC and wanting players to pay for it, State of Decay is still undoubtedly a very fun zombie survival game to play. If you can get the game at a discount, this game is definitely worth the price, especially for fans of the genre.
