Rise to Ruins vs Zombie Defense
Rise to Ruins
Rise to Ruins is a godlike empire-building strategy game that incorporates some elements of tower defense (during night time). Inspired by games like Towns, Gnomoria, Banished and Dwarf Fortress, you will need to build a thriving empire, recruit new nomads to join you, manage your empire's resources, and ensure that your people are content in this game. During the night, however, enemies will start hammering at your gates, and as such, set up proper tower-defense-like defenses to funnel your enemies into easily manageable "slaughter zones" as well as appoint guards to patrol your empire's parameters.There are also tons of fun little features that made this game so engaging to play, including your special godlike powers which you can use to help your little people survive or to cause them a huge amount of distress, and how the creatures and people in the game react to the presence of godly powers. You can even completely change the landscape of a map if you wish. The game has a ton of maps and game modes, even in its early access form, for you to play around with as well!
Rise to Ruins is still a work in progress but the game seems almost completely done and ready for launch. So, although it's still technically in early access, you can rest assured that the game is in its playable stage of development - you can immediately dive right in after purchasing the game!
P/S: There's also a trick that you can use to stop enemies from proliferating at all on the map you play on if you fancy a peaceful sort of game.
Zombie Defense
Zombie Defense is an amazingly unique breed of tower defense (TD) game whereby these “towers”, or gun-toting people to be exact, can and must be moved from the various fixed spots available on the map whenever the zombies get too close just to avoid getting slain. This is very unlike any other TD games we've seen before - most of which having involves constructing stationary buildings around the map.Aside from having well-designed and very strategic maps, the game also features an impressive range of game modes, each of which is consisted of many levels of varying difficulties. There is even a huge and expansive tech tree where you can invest the money you’ve earned from shooting zombies in the head to get upgrades that fit your playstyle or to unlock new units.
In short, Zombie Defense is a tower defense game that completely disrupts the idea that the "towers" in TDs should remain stationary. It also manages to successfully execute this unique concept in its gameplay, allowing players to enjoy a brand-new tower defense experience. This is the type of revolutionary game that will change things up in its genre and before the slew of copy-cats flood the market, perhaps you might want to try this game out for yourself!
