Kainga: Seeds of Civilization vs Subnautica
Kainga: Seeds of Civilization
Kainga: Seeds of Civilization , putting it simply, is a curious and intriguing city-builder/RTS game that offers several campaign-like missions where the goal is to complete the objectives needed before the game becomes too difficult to have your people survive through. Not only does it come with a brilliant soundtrack, but the game also has one-of-a-kind art, and most important of all, its RTS-style gameplay. Of course, there's also the fact that you can tame massive beasts in the game and build stuff on their backs or even use them as war mounts to attack your enemies.The game is already showing a lot of promise despite still being in Early Access. With time and some hard work patching up the bugs and improving on certain existing gameplay mechanics in-game, I’m confident that Kainga will be one of those decade-defining indie games for its efforts in innovating a stagnating genre.
Subnautica
Subnautica is a virtual reality game set in a gorgeous and open underwater world that may bring to mind epic explorative-styled adventure games like Abzu. However, interestingly, the underwater world you’ll be experiencing is not of the Earth. Instead, the game had you crash landed on an alien ocean world teeming with otherworldly life that may be friendly or hostile – you’ll just have to find out which on your own! The game even has a beautiful yet extremely dangerous “nightlife” that will require substantial preparation.Aside from being an explorative game, Subnautica will also see you scavenge, craft and survive in this alien world as well as to build your very own underwater habitat to be used as your base of operations while you go off on exciting adventures to learn more about the planet you are on.
Subnautica may still be in early access, but the game already feels like a complete game. The development team behind this game is also very active, providing its players with new updates and fixes frequently. When it comes to virtual reality games, Subnautica is definitely one of the few that is actually worth more than the price it asks for.
