Highrisers vs Into the Dead 2
Highrisers
Highrisers is an “escape from the tower”-style survival-slash-resource management game that’s fairly similar to the first Skyhill game, except that instead of traveling to the lobby, your end goal here is to scavenge the resources you need from the lower floors to fix the helicopter on the rooftop so your team of 4 survivors (if none of them died, that is) can escape the tower. It’s basically a quarter of the plot of Zack Synder’s most recent and relatively controversial zombie flick, Army of the Dead, really… and like the film, the game is fun but it has its own caveats.And of course, there are the zombies… ahem… I mean, mutants that will attack your team and any fortifications you’ve put up if they spot you… so there’s that.
For what it’s worth, I really liked resource management-based survival games like Highrisers and I have had a pretty good experience with the game myself, minus all the issues I’ve pointed out. The game definitely has some good stuff going for it, but the dev team really needs to work on the game more to revamp some of the gameplay designs and also to fix the game-breaking bugs reported by their players. Only then I would be comfortable recommending the game. For now though, it’s probably wise to keep it in your wishlist.
Into the Dead 2
Into the Dead 2 lets you dive right into the zombie apocalypse once again but this time around, you'll be rushing against the clock to save your family. With a much wider variety of weapons by your side, you'll need to take on the hordes of equally-varied zombies in your desperation to survive.Unlike the previous game though, Into the Dead 2 focuses a lot more on its narrative ,in addition to the usual maiming and killing, and of course, let's not forget about your brand-new, trusty canine companion who will help you fend off the zombie onslaught. The game also provides more backgrounds or environments for you to play in, more interesting gameplay which will see you manning a turret or cutting off zombie heads while you're on top of a vehicle.
Into the Dead 2 improves on the original in so many ways and this makes the game a whole lot more fun to play. So, if you've got an unquenchable thirst to slay some zombies, this is definitely the game you'll want installed on your phone!
