Ingress vs Strife
Ingress
Ingress is one of the world's first augmented reality game that uses Google Maps as a core part of its gameplay. The predecessor of games like Pokemon Go, Ingress, lets you side with either "The Enlightened" who embraces the energy and wants to use it, or "The Resistance" who refuses to let the foreign force taint our humanity, in a heated conflict over the control of a powerful yet mysterious force unearthed by a team of scientists in Europe.The game will have you tap on various sources of the energy to acquire items to aid you in your quest, deploy advanced tech to capture territories for your faction and work cooperatively with other players from your side to advance the goal of your faction.
Ingress is the first of its kind to completely transform the way you see the world. The way the game seems to merge seamlessly with the real world makes the game more relatable to its players, allowing them to really feel as though they are a part of the action rather than playing the game through an avatar like a traditional RPG.
Strife
Strife is a MOBA that balances both its casual and competitive aspects perfectly, despite containing quite a number of standard MOBA fare. The game is an easy game to pick up and thus, is really newbie-friendly. Not to mention, the skill ceiling in the game is lower than that of more competitive MOBAs, further increasing its approachability to players new to the MOBA genre. Furthermore, despite the smaller hero pool, the crafting and pet systems made the heroes in the game so much more customizable and diverse. The shared gold system in Strife also allows for a generally more stress-free match, particularly for the support class and carries.If you would like a break from the overly-intense and sometimes toxic matches in DotA 2 or LoL, perhaps you could consider Strife as a good casual alternative!
