Age of Empires: Castle Siege vs Total War: Shogun 2
Age of Empires: Castle Siege
Age of Empires: Castle Siege is a mobile spin-off of the popular and classic real-time strategy franchise, Age of Empires. Due to its MMO nature, the gameplay is drastically changed in this version of the game, giving players more of a Clash of Clans feel but with an Age of Empires twist. You'll still get to choose a civilization to play as, build a castle along with strong fortifications, and amass an army to raid other people's castles.Surprisingly, the game was pretty well-received by many of the game's fans and has garnered itself a sizeable following among mobile gamers. Some may even venture as far as to say that this game is much better than Clash of Clans. Well, whether this is true or not, we'll let you decide - try the game now!
Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
