Project Zomboid vs Tropico 5
Project Zomboid
Project Zomboid takes the post-apocalyptic zombie survival genre to the next level with one of the most realistic gameplay to date. After all, surviving isn't just blowing the heads off zombies or finding food - your mental health is as equally important! In many ways, the game feels a lot like Don't Starve when it comes to the more hardcore gameplay, though its persistent and ever-growing game map can be liken to that of Minecraft while its stats-based progression is somewhat similar to the old Runescape. There are so many skills you can level up, and which one you'd like to focus on is entirely up to you. Of course, you can customize your character's looks as well.Aside from the common Sandbox and Survival modes, the game even has fun and imaginative Challenge scenarios and action-packed "Last Stand" mode which frankly plays out a lot like Serious Sam albeit in isometric view.
Featuring a unique pixel-like visuals and an isomeric perspective, Project Zomboid is a really promising early access game that fans of survival games would really enjoy. It's full of content, be it exploring or crafting, and it's tough enough to keep you hooked.
Tropico 5
Tropico 5 lets you reprise your role as a dictator of a nice tropical nation where, this time around, you'll get to expand your country from the early colonial period into the future. The game features improved and advanced new mechanics for trading, research, and exploration. Interestingly, there are a few brand new features in this installment including the dynasty system where cronism finally get a chance to flourish alongside corruption, and two types of multiplayer modes, namely co-op and competitive multiplayer (up to 4 players).Some players prefers the 4th game rather than the 5th and it is somewhat obvious to know why. For Tropico 5, once you've figured out a "formula" which admittedly can take awhile unless you go and look it up on YouTube, you can keep using it for all the maps and missions. This simply turns Tropico 5 into a hilariously simple game to play. That said, Tropico has always been a game that works that way and if you really want a challenge, you can easily make things worse for yourself and your people before trying to fix everything up again.
