Jurassic Survival vs Novus Inceptio
Jurassic Survival
Jurassic Survival is a free-to-play prehistoric-themed survival MMO game where you can not only hunt dinosaurs, from the most ferocious meat-eaters to the gargantuan plant-eaters, but also other players who encroached on your land. The game is basically a copy-and-paste version of the popular zombie survival game, Last Day on Earth - Survival. This means that you'll get to design and build your own base, set up defenses, and head out to scour the wilderness for resources to hoard as well as to use for crafting. There are also clans that you can join just so you can have enough firepower to take down tougher dinosaurs.Interestingly though, the game is not set in prehistoris times despite having a prehistoric/ dinosaur theme. In this game, there are plenty of weapons, including more modern ones like guns, as well as armor that you'll need to use on your dino hunts just so you can survive the encounter. Similar to the many different types of zombies in Last Day on Earth, there are plenty of dinosaur types in this game too. Knowing their behavior will help tremendously when you want to take them on.
However, the game has its fair share of inconveniences, which avid fans of Last Day on Earth would be able to emphatize with, such as the lack of energy or the long duration needed to travel from one place to another without speeding it up with energy. That said, Jurassic Survival is perhaps the only and best alternative to the game, Last Day on Earth, currently available on Google Play.
Novus Inceptio
Novus Inceptio has all the hallmarks of a great sandbox game in the making, despite still being in early access. Aside from its mysterious sci-fi theme, the game features a variety of fun anomalies (mini-worlds) where you can discover, explore and possibly piece together story snippets about the stuff that had happened in the past. The game also has a more complex and in-depth crafting system, auto-harvesting feature, and a potentially fun underwater exploration/harvesting aspect that will definitely elevate the overall gameplay quality. However, the developers definitely need to make sure the game’s fundamental features, such as its action-based combat system.In addition to being an indie game, Novus Inceptio is also a work-in-progress. However, from what can be seen and experienced, it already has most of the winning features it needs to “make it” in the sandbox genre. It has a very interesting anomaly game concept that allows players to discover and explore multiple mini-worlds. It also offers an in-depth crafting system and farming, though its building and combat aspects are still pretty rudimentary. If you enjoy playing survival/sandbox games, Novus Inceptio is a breathtaking game that you wouldn’t want to miss!
