Arizona Sunshine vs Highrisers
Arizona Sunshine
Arizona Sunshine is a VR controlled zombie apocalypse game in which players have to search for human life while fighting off zombies.The game features a campaign mode that involves free roaming. Players can collect items and interact with the environment using VR controllers. Players can wield two guns at a time and keep two more in available holsters. As players search for human existence, they get to come across small groups of zombies as well as massive hordes. The goal is to survive till human contact is made while looking after the zombies coming to hunt the hero down.
Zombie apocalypse in a VR setting makes the highly fantasized experience all the more realistic in Arizona Sunshine. The game is a must try for all action-adventure fans.
Highrisers
Highrisers is an “escape from the tower”-style survival-slash-resource management game that’s fairly similar to the first Skyhill game, except that instead of traveling to the lobby, your end goal here is to scavenge the resources you need from the lower floors to fix the helicopter on the rooftop so your team of 4 survivors (if none of them died, that is) can escape the tower. It’s basically a quarter of the plot of Zack Synder’s most recent and relatively controversial zombie flick, Army of the Dead, really… and like the film, the game is fun but it has its own caveats.And of course, there are the zombies… ahem… I mean, mutants that will attack your team and any fortifications you’ve put up if they spot you… so there’s that.
For what it’s worth, I really liked resource management-based survival games like Highrisers and I have had a pretty good experience with the game myself, minus all the issues I’ve pointed out. The game definitely has some good stuff going for it, but the dev team really needs to work on the game more to revamp some of the gameplay designs and also to fix the game-breaking bugs reported by their players. Only then I would be comfortable recommending the game. For now though, it’s probably wise to keep it in your wishlist.
