Ancient War vs Shark Boom
Ancient War
Ancient War is a brand-new MMO RPG/strategy game that you can play for free directly on Facebook. In this game, you will need to choose one of 3 factions to join, namely Thebes, Athens or Sparta, before setting off to develop your city-state, recruit legendary heroes and their associated battalions, and take on your enemies.The gameplay here is pretty generic in many ways, but there are a couple features that stand out although they are not entirely unique. One such feature is the world map. Unlike many other games within the same genre, the world map feels a lot more real and alive as you can see the boundaries of each faction being drawn and re-drawn as players of the same faction work together to conquer other faction's city-states.
Another feature is the faction hierarchy. Each faction is governed by the players themselves and only the strongest players will be able to climb the ranks and assume one of the 4 important positions in the hierarchy. If you are the best of the lot, you can even be appointed King.
Ancient War isn't exactly a refreshingly unique browser MMO game, but it is not your run-of-the-mill game either. The gameplay is quite decent and the epic Greek-theme that it has may appeal to you as well.
Shark Boom
Shark Boom is more similar to Piggy Boom than Pirate Kings mainly because this game provides players with adorable 3D cartoon pets to collect. However, unlike Piggy Boom, these pets are mostly aesthetic in nature and won't be much help during a battle.That said, the gameplay in Shark Boom is pretty familiar especially if you've played Pirate Kings or Piggy Boom. Basically, what you'll need to do is to spin the wheel. The wheel will then decide whether you'll get to take an action, such as attacking other players' islands, or collect freebies like extra coins, spins and more. There are plenty of islands for you to build up in this game, and each of them have their own unique themes, ranging from the Ice Age to Jurassic World. The game also offers revenge attacks so make sure to have your base shielded up after an attack spree.
Shark Boom is definitely a great alternative game to play if you enjoy games like Pirate Kings, Piggy Boom or any other games like it.
