Plague Inc vs Word Connect
Plague Inc
Plague Inc is a disease simulation game where you play as the mad geneticist and villian who is hell-bend on creating a disease that's as lethal as possible... with the main goal of wiping out the entire human population across the globe. The game was insanely popular a few years ago mainly due to the moral dilemma that players who enjoy this game experience, but partly because the game's incredibly unique. It features a wide variety of pathogens like viruses, fungi, bacteria, and even prions that you can modify right down to its molecular level so that you can create the ultimate species-killing plague. The game even has (obviously fake) news reports within the game telling you how well your biological weapon of mass destruction is doing and what the authorities in various countries are responding to the threat.In many ways, Plague Inc doesn't only make its players realize how fragile humanity is; it also somewhat functions as a fun educational tool to let the masses learn about certain scientific terms and how to differentiate between the many types of disease-carrying vectors. So, if you happen to be feeling a bit villainous, you might want to try Plague Inc. Who knows? You may even learn a new thing or two after playing the game!
Word Connect
Word Connect follows in the successful word puzzle game formula used by many other games like Word Cookies and even Wordscapes... though, it's a lot more similar to Word Cookies than Wordscapes per se. The gameplay is incredibly fun and addictive and the controls are easy to learn as well - how hard can it be to swipe letters to form words, right? The game also boasts of having over 2500 levels - more to come! - and there's an exciting new daily challenge for you every day you log in. Hit a snag in the game? You can use hints or you can share the puzzle with your family and friends on Facebook and ask for help. Any extra and valid words you find will be rewarded as well!The game is not at all competitive so you can take your time looking for the words needed to complete a level. Best yet, the game is powered by the Oxford Dictionary so you can be sure that the English words you know, even including many others that you might not, will definitely be in the game.
Word Connect may not be innovative in any sense since it's basically a clone of Word Cookies, but if you're looking for the closest alternative to a game like Word Cookies, you may find this game a suitable choice. The game is both phone- and tablet-friendly and is available on iOS and Android.
