Battle Breakers vs Melting World Online
Battle Breakers
Battle Breakers is a new free-to-play turn-based RPG from Epic Games. Here, you’ll fight against monsters from the sky who trapped the planet’s heroes. Your role is to gather a team to take the planet back from them. Use a variety of heroes with different abilities and use elemental affinities to your advantage.Granted that it isn’t a battle royale, but much like the Fortnite, it innovates and delivers new yet refined gameplay mechanics. Available on Android, iOS, and on PC through the Epic Games Store, this turn-based strategy game is a breath of fresh air to the rather crowded hero-collecting subgenre. Though its gameplay loop appears way too different and even uncharacteristic, it’s extremely fun, simple to pick up, and in a way, works seamlessly. All these, paired up with high production value and hilarious dialogue, deliver quite an experience.
Overall, Battle Breakers is a must-try game especially if you’re looking for a new hero-collector. Though it’s still a little early to say that it beats its peers off the park, its fresh take on dungeon-crawling and its robust roster of heroes to collect makes it something you need to get your hands on.
Melting World Online
Melting World Online is a strategy RPG set in what seems to be an alien world. Featuring a unique old school-look, this game more than makes up for its dated graphics with an in-depth and surprisingly strategic gameplay. Aside from the timed turn-based combat, which is modelled after Fallout games' VATS system and is designed to keep you on your toes, you'll also get to assemble your own team of mechs (along with their mech pilots) to bring into the battlefield.The most intriguing part of the gameplay, however, is how you can customize your mech. Instead of giving you fixed slots to put your weapons and armor in, you get a grided box for each part of your mech, namely the cockpit, left and right arms, the body and left and right legs, where you can attempt to squeeze in as many weapons and armor as you can. After all, the more weapons you have means the more attacking options you'll have, while having more armor means your mech can take a lot more punishment from the enemy before going down.
Melting World Online may not win any prizes when it comes to its nostalgic 90s visuals, but its gameplay is definitely worth a look, especially if you're a huge fan of strategy games.
