Oxygen Not Included vs Tiny Tower
Oxygen Not Included
Oxygen Not Included is one of the most highly anticipated new survival/base building game by Klei Entertainment, the very people behind the breakout indie title, Don't Starve. Set in a space-colony where oxygen itself is a limited commodity, Oxygen Not Included will put your management and planning skills to the test as you try your best to not only help your current colonist survive the next day but also to grow your colony into a bustling underground space colony.The game has a very in-depth base building system that may bring to mind a 2D version of SimCity. It also features realistic psychological effects (specifically, stress) of surviving, which may eventually lead to a breakdown, and naturally, you wouldn't want that. Aside from oxygen and the mental states of your people, you will also need to keep a variety of other factors well-regulated lest your colonists die from a necessity you've neglected. Best yet, like Don't Starve, each world you play in is procedurally generated, guaranteeing hours after hours of replayable fun!
In some way, Oxygen Not Included feels like a much more in-depth version of Fallout Shelter albeit with a different theme and Don't Starve's iconic art style. So, if you love Klei's games so far, you might want to check out Oxygen Not Included. However, bear in mind that the game is still a work in progress and if you have any suggestions, you can always send them some feedback.
Tiny Tower
Tiny Tower is a community-building game where you get to literally set up a community of cute little bitizens in a tiny tower that can be constantly expanded by adding new floors and decorating them. There are many different types of floors you can add, some of which will help improve the living conditions for your current residing bitizens while others many attract new bitizens to move to your tower.You can also cater to the needs of your inhabitants by peeking into their minds and see what they are thinking through the game's amusing virtual social network, BitBook. To make things more interesting, there will be special VIP visitors from time to time along with special missions to complete. You can even trade bitizens with your friends now.
In some way, the game does feel a lot like a city-building game despite the fact that you'll be simply building a pretty much self-sustaining tower, but it interestingly plays out like Fallout Shelter though, by being a tower, you'll be building upwards rather than downwards. If you love this sort of simulation, be sure to download the game on your mobile devices - it's free - and try it out!
