The Walking Dead: Season Two vs TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
The Walking Dead: Season Two
The Walking Dead: Season Two is the exciting sequel to the highly acclaimed Telltale game series, The Walking Dead. This game continues the story of Clementine, a young orphaned girl who was left to fend for herself after her protector tragically sacrificed himself for her safety many months ago. Play as the young girl as she does whatever she can to survive and yet tries to retain the good that's left of humanity. Presented with various scenarios, events and moral dilemmas that a young girl shouldn't have to face, you'll need to help her make critical decisions that will change the path of her story, resulting in very differnt endings.Like the previous game, The Walking Dead: Season Two contains 5 episodes in total, namely All that Remains, A House Divided, In Harm's Way, Amid the Ruins and No Going Back.
This is definitely a game you'll want to get if you've played the Season One of the game. If not, get the Season One first before you accidentally spoiled the story for yourself!
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale
TIO: Battlegrounds Royale is the standalone battle royale game mode for the mobile survival game, Thrive Island. Set in a pretty huge open world where you can craft a large variety of items and build shelters or even big buildings as a base of sorts at night. This game has a lot more "survival" gameplay rather than the somewhat intense "battle royale" fights since you are expected to gather resources and scavenge loot just so you can have the best gear to prepare you for the final fight for the title of victor royale!Unlike other battle royale games that have the iconic map-shrinking feature, this game did away with that. Instead, you need to hunt the land for your opponents, which may take awhile, but can be fun when you catch someone by surprise. Interestingly, the game even has a zombie mode where you can turn your slain foes into zombies. Not sure how this fit into the battle royale gameplay though.
All in all, TIO: Battlegrounds Royale feels a lot like a hardcore survival game rather than a battle royale mainly because it places emphasis on building a good shelter, gathering raw resources (as opposed to finding ready-made items) and well, crafting. The game is also a work-in-progress so you can expect a less-polished game that could use your feedback to improve.
