BioShock Infinite vs Vaporum: Lockdown
BioShock Infinite
BioShock Infinite is the last sequel of the BioShock series and is possibly the best one (or worst, depending on which side of the coin you are at) yet. The game is set in a gorgeous and populated city (at least at the beginning) in the sky called Columbia that unfortunately is not as cheery it apparently seems. The gameplay is quite different too since you'll have access to the city's many ziplines via special grappling hooks called Sky-Hooks, tears in the fabrics of time that you can exploit during combat to pull in aid in the form of turrets, weapons and other resources; as well as more Vigors.Not many people like this version of BioShock for their own reasons, but everyone can agree that for what it's worth, this game shouldn't be the end of the BioShock series... but that was what happened. So, if you're a fan of the franchise, this game is definitely a must-buy, just so you can enjoy the unique flavor of your favorite series one last time... and also to get your mind blown to pieces figuratively when you eventually realize how well the story is rounded up with that rather befuddling ending.
Vaporum: Lockdown
Vaporum: Lockdown is a first-person, dungeon crawler featuring old-school grid-based dungeon-crawling gameplay with real-time combat, fun Sokoban-like puzzles, cool steampunk-themed setting, and an intriguing mystery to uncover. In this game, you play as a scientist, Ellie, who’s trapped within a locked-down facility called the Arx Vaporum filled with murderous robots and mutated creatures. Will Ellie be able to escape the place in one piece? What will she discover as she makes her way through Arx Vaporum?In terms of gameplay, you’ll be moving Ellie, the protagonist of the story, one grid at a time. Turning to face a certain direction before you can say turn a corner also requires an extra tap of the keyboard. However, this also means that you can actually move like a crab in this game if you’re sure of the path you’re on. Like most dungeon crawlers, Vaporum: Lockdown comes with devious traps, enemies and puzzles. Traps in this game can be rather easily avoided as long as you got the timing down right.
The interesting part about this game is that combat plays out in real-time here, unlike any other old-school dungeon crawlers we have experienced before. This means that it is entirely possible to loop a sequence of “move and attack” when facing something stationary so you can avoid getting hit at all. However, this also means that more mobile enemies can be trickier to slay – it all boils down to timing really.
There are also fun Sokoban-like puzzles in this game. Most of them involve having you to move crates around to fill holes in the ground, block danger from the path you want to take, or even to serve as paperweights on metal pressure plates. For hardcore treasure seekers, the game even has several hidden compartments that an inquisitive explorer might be able to find, each of these alcoves usually come with some nice rewards. There is a sufficient variety of loot, and you can get better gear as you progress.
Being a prequel of the highly-successful Vaporum, Vaporum: Lockdown definitely does the original game, and the Vaporum universe as a while, proud. Besides the few new features here and there, the gameplay is generally similar to the original title and hence, would be instantly familiar to fans of Vaporum. The storytelling here is great as well, offering so much more lore than before, and of course, the fantastic atmosphere here will pull you right into the fumium-obsessed world that Ellie Teller lives in.
