PUBG Mobile vs TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
PUBG Mobile
PUBG Mobile is the mobile port of the insanely popular battle royale game, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. Featuring the same intense gameplay as the original (PC/console) version, you'll be pitted against 100 other players a.k.a. survivors on a remote but vast island in a massive showdown of wits and skill, all done in the hopes of being the last person standing and winning that goshdarn delicious "chicken dinner".This port is as perfect as it can get without compromising on quality, though there have been some rumors going around that the game is rigged, at the beginning at least, so you'd play against bots rather than an all-humasn ensemble of players. This is actually a pretty great idea to ease new players into a highly competitive game. The best part about all of this, however, is the fact that the game is free-to-play. Of course, the game still retains its principle of fairness so you won't see spenders with overpowered weaponry right from the start in this game.
So, if you have always wanted to try "the battle royale game that started it all", this is your chance! PUBG Mobile is as close to the real thing as it gets and well, you can play this for free!
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale is the standalone battle royale game mode for the mobile survival game, Thrive Island. Set in a pretty huge open world where you can craft a large variety of items and build shelters or even big buildings as a base of sorts at night. This game has a lot more "survival" gameplay rather than the somewhat intense "battle royale" fights since you are expected to gather resources and scavenge loot just so you can have the best gear to prepare you for the final fight for the title of victor royale!Unlike other battle royale games that have the iconic map-shrinking feature, this game did away with that. Instead, you need to hunt the land for your opponents, which may take awhile, but can be fun when you catch someone by surprise. Interestingly, the game even has a zombie mode where you can turn your slain foes into zombies. Not sure how this fit into the battle royale gameplay though.
All in all, TIO: Battlegrounds Royale feels a lot like a hardcore survival game rather than a battle royale mainly because it places emphasis on building a good shelter, gathering raw resources (as opposed to finding ready-made items) and well, crafting. The game is also a work-in-progress so you can expect a less-polished game that could use your feedback to improve.
