Shark Boom vs Torchlight
Shark Boom
Shark Boom is more similar to Piggy Boom than Pirate Kings mainly because this game provides players with adorable 3D cartoon pets to collect. However, unlike Piggy Boom, these pets are mostly aesthetic in nature and won't be much help during a battle.That said, the gameplay in Shark Boom is pretty familiar especially if you've played Pirate Kings or Piggy Boom. Basically, what you'll need to do is to spin the wheel. The wheel will then decide whether you'll get to take an action, such as attacking other players' islands, or collect freebies like extra coins, spins and more. There are plenty of islands for you to build up in this game, and each of them have their own unique themes, ranging from the Ice Age to Jurassic World. The game also offers revenge attacks so make sure to have your base shielded up after an attack spree.
Shark Boom is definitely a great alternative game to play if you enjoy games like Pirate Kings, Piggy Boom or any other games like it.
Torchlight
Torchlight is a fun dungeon crawling game that features an epic storyline, thrilling action and a loyal pet companion, which you can customize, to boot! Assemble a team of three heroes and descend into the monsters-filled caverns below the town in search of the valuable and rare ore, Ember, as well as plenty of riches and glory. You can even take a breather in between all the monster slaying to head off to a fishing pool and go fishing. The fishes you get are surprisingly powerful though - they can be fed to your loyal companion and turn it into powerful battle allies rather than just being a pack mule.Like most dungeon crawlers, randomization is key to the gameplay, giving players a fresh new experience everytime they replay the game, but of course, mod support also gives the game an even longer lifespan. To faciliate this replayability, the game even has a retirement system in place which allow you to pass down prized equipment to your new heroes as you "retire" the old one.
Torchlight may not have enjoyed a following that's large as Diablo, but the game has its own group of loyal fans and hardcore players who still play the game. The game itself feels so much more lighthearted than the dark demonic tones of the latter and is perfect for players who enjoy dungeon crawlers but dislike being scared silly by grotesque creatures of hell.
