Risk of Rain vs The Legend of Tianding
Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a rogue-like, action platformer that is difficult enough to be challenging and is punishing (perma-death). You can choose to face the constantly spawning enemies alone - well, not exactly since you'll have your drone - or cooperatively with up to 3 other friends in hopes of collecting all the tools you need to find the teleporter machine and to finally, head back home. The enemies you fight are randomly generated by combining traits and abilities from a fixed yet extensive list as well, making the game a lot more unpredictable and hence, enjoyable.In addition to the 12 unique characters that you can unlock and a plethora of powerups to use, the game is also set on a mysterious planet with diverse biomes, ranging from dark forests to the frozen tundra. There is even an engrossing storyline which you can slowly piece together by collecting items and monster logs in your adventures.
Risk of Rain is definitely a fun and challenging platform game to play alone, but it particularly shines when you play it with friends. Time just seems to fly by in co-op mode and of course, let's not forget about the hilarious moments when one of you messed up (intentionally or otherwise).
The Legend of Tianding
The Legend of Tianding lets you follow the exciting exploits of Taiwan’s very own Robin Hood as he embarks on various platforming-based adventures across Taiwan, taking on wealthy merchants who mistreat the common folk and the Japanese imperialists who treat the locals like slaves alike. In addition to offering an “easy mode” for players who just want to experience the story, the game features plenty of fighting styles that you can use to take down foes in spectacular fashion and a Metroidvania-based gameplay where exploration and keeping your eyes peeled for secrets is often very rewarding.The Legend of Tianding has had received a lot of love from the devs and it shows! Not only does it feature tight, responsive, and smooth controls; the beat ‘em up-styled combat here is incredibly thrilling and well-varied, and the storyline is nothing short of engaging. As a bonus, you’ll also get to learn more about Taiwanese history and folklore through the game’s many collectibles, music, and art. We truly can’t recommend this game enough!
