Pokemon Go vs The Walking Dead: Our World
Pokemon Go
Pokemon Go is one of the world's first and most popular augmented reality game where players embark on their own personal pokemon trainer journeys in the real world (respectively) in hopes of being able to "catch 'em all". Utilizing the devices' GPS, the app will track your movement and allow you to, when within close enough proximity, detect wild Pokemon which you can then attempt to catch, or open up pokestops and gyms so you can collect items from. Players are split up into 3 teams, Mystic, Valor and Instinct, and they are often pitted against one another over the control of the Pokemon gyms around their area.In addition to legendaries appearing in the world, the game has also rather recently released exciting raids which will force you to group up to and battle boss Pokemon which has extremely high Combat Power (CP). Niantic, the developers of the game, has even organized massive Pokemon Go events throughout the world, sometimes even allowing players to remotely join in the fun.
Pokemon Go has revolutionized the gaming industry by superimposing digital Pokemon in the real world via the cameras on mobile devices, as well as popularized the use of global positioning to track a player's movement in the real world. Even until today (after the hype has apparently died down), the game is still widely played by millions all over the world. So, if you haven't already, you should definitely try this game out. This is also a no brainer if you happen to be a massive fan of Pokemon and its games.
The Walking Dead: Our World
The Walking Dead: Our World is a fun geo-based augmented reality game that is inspired by the hit TV show, The Walking Dead. Following in the successful footsteps of Pokemon Go, the game features a simple tap-based gameplay where you complete missions by killing zombies, rescuing trapped people and bringing them to your shelter, and even fight other hostile survivors. You won't be doing all of this alone either! The game lets you recruit and upgrade a host of familiar companions to fight alongside you, in addition to collecting powerful weapons and improving them.Unlike Pokemon Go where you will need to travel to a location to collect "resources" like pokeballs and berries or to search for new pokemon, in this game, you can enjoy a sufficient portion of the game without actually budging from your spot. However, there are some aspects that still require some traveling, such as survivor rescue. Players can band together here as well, and this is advantageous mainly because you can basically "teleport" to any location in the world where members of your group have put up a flare.
The Walking Dead: Our World has a really great game design and is backed by one of the most popular TV shows around (short of Game of Thrones, of course). However, the game can only run properly on mid-high to high-end devices, and well, it might be hard to get fans of the show to jump on the bandwagon and try the game out since the demographics for this game are very different from Pokemon Go, which mainly appeals to teens to young adults today.
