Lumberhill vs Risk of Rain
Lumberhill
Lumberhill is a fun and hectic co-op game designed to test even the strongest of friendships. In this game, you have to complete as many tasks as possible within the time limit to earn points. Getting a sufficient number of points will get you stars and there are up to 3 stars to be earned. The game starts off innocently enough, with you chopping down trees and herding sheep, but eventually more challenges present themselves and the game starts to get a whole lot more difficult. In addition to having plenty of skins to unlock, the game comes with an online co-op and a PvP mode as well.All in all, Lumberhill is a pretty good co-op game that’s fun to play with friends and family. It has its flaws and cannot measure up to the formula that made Overcooked such a success – and so far, I daresay no co-op game that I’ve reviewed managed to get even close, bar Unrailed! – but it is reasonably priced, entertaining either in solo or co-op, and is perfect to play in bursts due to its level-based design.
Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a rogue-like, action platformer that is difficult enough to be challenging and is punishing (perma-death). You can choose to face the constantly spawning enemies alone - well, not exactly since you'll have your drone - or cooperatively with up to 3 other friends in hopes of collecting all the tools you need to find the teleporter machine and to finally, head back home. The enemies you fight are randomly generated by combining traits and abilities from a fixed yet extensive list as well, making the game a lot more unpredictable and hence, enjoyable.In addition to the 12 unique characters that you can unlock and a plethora of powerups to use, the game is also set on a mysterious planet with diverse biomes, ranging from dark forests to the frozen tundra. There is even an engrossing storyline which you can slowly piece together by collecting items and monster logs in your adventures.
Risk of Rain is definitely a fun and challenging platform game to play alone, but it particularly shines when you play it with friends. Time just seems to fly by in co-op mode and of course, let's not forget about the hilarious moments when one of you messed up (intentionally or otherwise).
