Surviving Mars vs Tropico 5
Surviving Mars
Surviving Mars is a colony-building game that's set on the red planet published by Paradox Interactive. In this game, you are in charge of the human colonization of Mars project. Aside from extracting various minerals and resources with your army of hardy drones, you'll need to set up a sustainable system of oxygen and water before bringing in the colonists to help with some of the work that drones simply aren't able to do on their own.Despite the obvious flaws in parts of its game mechanics which force players to micromanage almost everything to the point of being a hassle, Surviving Mars has a pretty nice concept and depth, as well as an even nicer style of graphics. The game could use a bit of work, that's for sure, but if they do the changes right, this might just turn into a formidable Mars colony-building simulation - a game that might just help us envision a future where whatever you've built is actually a reality.
Tropico 5
Tropico 5 lets you reprise your role as a dictator of a nice tropical nation where, this time around, you'll get to expand your country from the early colonial period into the future. The game features improved and advanced new mechanics for trading, research, and exploration. Interestingly, there are a few brand new features in this installment including the dynasty system where cronism finally get a chance to flourish alongside corruption, and two types of multiplayer modes, namely co-op and competitive multiplayer (up to 4 players).Some players prefers the 4th game rather than the 5th and it is somewhat obvious to know why. For Tropico 5, once you've figured out a "formula" which admittedly can take awhile unless you go and look it up on YouTube, you can keep using it for all the maps and missions. This simply turns Tropico 5 into a hilariously simple game to play. That said, Tropico has always been a game that works that way and if you really want a challenge, you can easily make things worse for yourself and your people before trying to fix everything up again.
