Age of War vs Prime World: Defenders 2
Age of War
Age of War is a strategy game that has a gameplay that may bring to mind tower defense games albeit in a 2D format. The premise of this game is simple really - all you have to do is to defend your base and send troops to destroy the enemy's base. There are tons of upgrades and even turrets that you can eventually build, but the most interesting part of the game is the fact that you can advance through 5 different ages and naturally, the higher age you are, the better troops and turrets you'll have access to. Will you be able to progress faster than your opponent though?Prime World: Defenders 2
Prime World: Defenders 2 is the highly-anticipated sequel to one of the most innovative tower-defense/CCG hybrid games available. Developed by Nival, the game is set in the world of Prime where the valuable resource, which is also called prime, has caused much conflict between its inhabitants. In this game, it’s your prime directive to safeguard your stash of prime and your prime-mining sites from being overrun and destroyed by the local creatures, the aggressive creeps. Build and upgrade towers, cast spells, and defeat powerful bosses in this brilliant game!Ultimately though, Prime World: Defenders 2 is a sequel that seems to offer more of the same. However, the game comes packaged in what many players have called a “pay-to-win” wrapping. There is plenty of grind where there are almost none before, rare tower cards are more difficult to come by, and some fans may be instantly turned off by the microtransactions even though the game’s pretty generous with its premium currency and well… the game’s free-to-play.
So, overall, I’d say that in terms of the actual gameplay, the game is a fun, free-to-play tower defense/CCG to enjoy, especially if you loved the original. It’s definitely a game that’s in its own unique niche genre.
