Helmet Heroes vs Torchlight: The Legend Continues
Helmet Heroes
Helmet Heroes is a free-to-play, 2D platform-based MMORPG that not only has a Maplestory feel to it, but it’s also a child-oriented game due to its cartoonish graphics. Here, you’ll get to play as one of four adventurers who set out to explore an amazingly diverse world filled with various creatures to fight and loot to collect. The game also features a satisfying progression system whereby your character development is not hampered by your chosen class, a pretty challenging gameplay, and it can be somewhat punishing if you die while carrying a ton of cash.In some way, Helmet Heroes plays a lot like a simplified version of the platformer, Maplestory, with a hint of Mario albeit minus the anime part. The game focuses a lot on exploration whereby you’ll get to discover odd regions filled with as equally odd creatures which you farm for a chance to get the item you want. Item-stealing is a pretty fun aspect of the game and it reminds me a lot of the old Runescape, but the game does give the person who dealt the most damage looting priority, at least for the first few seconds. The open-ended-styled character development, despite having you to choose a class at the beginning, may also bring Runescape to mind.
So, all said and done, if you enjoy playing 2D platformer/MMORPGs, then Helmet Heroes is a game you should check out! The game’s free after all, and it can be played by the whole family as well.
Torchlight: The Legend Continues
Torchlight: The Legend Continues is a dungeon crawler that manages to combine the essences of both Diablo and Torchlight series and packaged it into a mobile-friendly format. Featuring an auto-pathfinding system, the game feels a lot different than any other "automated games" out there mainly due to the abundance of character customization options (mainly through skill combinations and equipment). Randomization is also added to its gameplay and its maps, so you'll encounter very different scenarios even if the dungeon you are running is the same one. It keeps the game experience fresh and exciting.Similar to the old Torchlight games, there are also pets that you can adopt. These pets have their own set of main and passive skills which can be applied in your combat. Pets can be improved by fishes caught via fishing at randomly-spawned fishing ponds in the game.
Torchlight is one of the most loved dungeon crawlers, possibly second only to the Diablo series, and this mobile version of it does the franchise justice in many ways. So, if you love playing dungeon crawlers on your mobile devices, you should definitely try Torchlight: The Legend Continues.
