Pockie Defense vs Ticket to Ride
Pockie Defense
Pockie Defense is yet another unique tower defense game that is has a rather different fairytale theme. In this game, you are given the heavy duty of defending Fairy Tale lands from the evil Witch and her minions but don't worry - you will not do the whole "You shall not pass" sequence alone! Instead, you get to recruit a wide variety of fairy tale heroes and heroines to aid you. These characters are literally your "towers" in this game and they can be upgraded permanently by consuming other lesser heroes. Most interestingly, you can even challenge other players to a fun PvP fight where only a selection of your heroes will go up against an equal number of opponents sent from the other side.That said, being a free-to-play game does make Pockie Defense a bit skewed towards the pay-to-win side, but if you ask us, the game is still amazingly fun to play and is worth the time you spend on it especially if you enjoy tower defense games.
Ticket to Ride
Ticket to Ride is a family-favorite board game that's set in the glorious age of big trains and engines - during the railroad boom of the 18th century. In this game, you'll need to claim routes using train cards and the limited number of train cars you have, while completing as many tickets as you can. To claim a route, you'll need to use train cards of the corresponding color, though there are some exceptions to the rules, such as gray routes and wild Locomotive cards.The very strategic, turn-based gameplay mainly centers around competing with the other players in the match to claim routes that you need. If someone else claimed a route you planned on taking, then you'll have no choice but to find an alternative route, which will cost you more time and resources (train cards). However, that's actually where the fun of the game lies. You don't know what routes your opponents planned on taking and sometimes, you may be forced to adapt to the evolving situation and find another way to get to the station you need.
This digitized version of Ticket to Ride doesn't differ much from its physical/original version and that's a plus for fans of the board game. It has multiple game modes and expansions (at a cost though) as well, giving players the chance to compete with other players across the globe and more maps to play on. If you enjoy a solid strategy board game, Ticket to Ride is a game you'll want to try!
