Jurassic Survival vs Project Zomboid
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.
Project Zomboid
Project Zomboid takes the post-apocalyptic zombie survival genre to the next level with one of the most realistic gameplay to date. After all, surviving isn't just blowing the heads off zombies or finding food - your mental health is as equally important! In many ways, the game feels a lot like Don't Starve when it comes to the more hardcore gameplay, though its persistent and ever-growing game map can be liken to that of Minecraft while its stats-based progression is somewhat similar to the old Runescape. There are so many skills you can level up, and which one you'd like to focus on is entirely up to you. Of course, you can customize your character's looks as well.Aside from the common Sandbox and Survival modes, the game even has fun and imaginative Challenge scenarios and action-packed "Last Stand" mode which frankly plays out a lot like Serious Sam albeit in isometric view.
Featuring a unique pixel-like visuals and an isomeric perspective, Project Zomboid is a really promising early access game that fans of survival games would really enjoy. It's full of content, be it exploring or crafting, and it's tough enough to keep you hooked.
