Infinity Blade II vs The Good Life
Infinity Blade II
Infinity Blade II continues the storyline from the previous game by letting you reprise your role as the hero-savior, Siris. Being curiosity-driven, you’ll need to travel across the realm of the Deathless Saydhi to find clues as to unlock the mystery behind the Infinity Blade you now wield. Of course, being Infinity Blade, there will always be tyrants and Titans for you to slay via the game’s excellent action-based combat (now in three new styles) as well as a plethora of weapons to slay them with.The game has also improved on the game’s hallmark character customization, providing you with the option to now forge even more powerful items and infuse them with elemental powers and capabilities. Interestingly, the game has an optional ClashMob app where players can recruit friends to their respective mobs and participate in fun and massively social global challenges to reap amazing rewards.
Infinity Blade II definitely builds on the success of its predecessor and it has managed to do so successfully. A worthy sequel to add to your game library, I’d say!
The Good Life
The Good Life is a 3D adventure RPG featuring quests to complete, a mystery to unravel, and also a person speeding away in a highly advanced wheelchair that you can’t seem to catch up to. In this game, you play as a rather snobbish photographer from New York who’s in a massive amount of debt and the only way out is for you to complete this mysterious assignment you’re sent on – to discover why a sleepy little town is known as “the happiest town in the world”.As you play, you’ll unlock a feature that allows Naomi to change form. Without giving away too many spoilers, just know that by “changing forms”, Naomi will be able to reach areas she wouldn’t be able to reach otherwise, allowing her to uncover clues that will help in her investigation. The forms will also give her the chance to collect certain materials that she’ll need to complete quests.
The highlight of the game, however, is definitely its photography aspect. If you’ve enjoyed games where the goal is to simply capture nature at its best, then you’ll love the camera action here. Not only can you upgrade your camera (its lens specifically) to allow for more variety of shots, you actually need to rely on your photo-taking skills to earn a living in this game.
The Good Life is a pretty fun and charming adventure RPG with an interesting story to follow. The game’s easy enough for even young children to enjoy, though the protagonist, Naomi, might not make the best role model.
