Evony: The King's Return vs Total War: Shogun 2
Evony: The King's Return
Evony: The King's Return is a rather addictively entertaining MMORTS game where you can play as the ruler of a powerful (and real-life) culture in a fictional world. The gameplay is not very special if compared to the tons of other MMO strategy games out there, but the overall gaming experience afforded by its emphasis on historically accurate cultures, coupled with perfectly-tailored visuals and music, is quite unique. You can even sign up to join an alliance and work together to take down tough boss monsters on the map or even a rival alliance city. Oh and of course, let’s not forget about the game’s incredible generosity. By simply logging in daily, you can get some amazing rewards. So, if you are looking for a new mobile MMORTS game to play, you might want to check out Evony: The King’s Return.Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
