60 Seconds! vs Shelter
60 Seconds!
60 Seconds! is a game that offers a fun satirical take on the far-too-unrealistic post-apocalypse survival management genre by making it as hilarious as possible. In this game, you will play as Ted, an average suburban family guy who has just a single minute to dash through his home to pick up as much stuff as he can, including his family members, before diving into the underground bunker he has built in his house. From there, you'll then need to help him and his family survive the day-to-day by making difficult decisions like who to send out to scavenge food, and who should get the most rations. Of course, there's the mutant cockroach infestation that you'll have to deal with...If you love dark comedy and post-apocalyptic games, 60 Seconds! is definitely a game you'll want to play. It's as funny as it is challenging.
Shelter
Shelter is truly a one-of-a-kind game where you'll get to play as a mother badger who's taking care of her newly-born cubs. Developed by Might and Delight, the game puts you on an exciting yet heartwarming adventure as you travel about with your cubs in tow in hopes of finding the perfect shelter to raise them. In your journey, you and your family will encounter lots of danger and it is up to you - the mama badger - to protect your cubs from harm, whether it is a raging forest fire or a bird of prey.Besides adventure, the game also comes with a second game mode called Nurture. It's a lot like a Tamagochi game where you'll need to head into the game every day (at least once) to give your cubs the stuff they need to survive and also to forge closer bonds with them.
This is one of the breakout indie games of 2013 but it's not the sort of game that will get old with age, so if you love games where you'll get to play as an animal and you enjoy a good story-adventure, then Shelter is your best bet!
