Sheltered vs Valheim
Sheltered
Sheltered is, in some way, a mixture of the survival management gameplay that Fallout Shelter has popularized and the emotional rollercoaster that This War of Mine puts you through, all rolled into a single game. In this game, you play as the protector of a family of four who managed to make their way to a deserted shelter in a dreary, post-apocalyptic world. Like Fallout Shelter, you can plan, build and expand your bunker to accommodate more facilities and resources you've scavenged from your daily expeditions above ground.However, like This War of Mine, the game presents you with a ton of randomly selected scenarios, most of which will put you in a moral dilemma as you are forced to choose between forsaking your family's survival or your humanity/morality. As your bunker grows, you can also recruit more people to join you. Knowing who to trust enough to allow them access to your shelter is another dilemma that you'll probably need to face in this game.
Sheltered is the perfectly-designed game for players who find Fallout Shelter a bit too casual for their liking and This War of Mine a bit too restricted. If you' like what you've read so far, then do get the game from Steam. You can thank me later!
