Brown Dust vs Scythe
Brown Dust
Brown Dust is an anime-inspired Korean RPG that has a fun, sprite-based graphical style, an in-depth turn-based combat system which will remind you of Final Fantasy Tactics, and a varied selection of mercenaries that you can recruit and upgrade. In addition to the more than 300 mercenaries to recruit and deploy into your team, there are just so many different formations and attack order you can use. All of this makes up for a strategically challenging game!Of course, being an RPG, you can also expect tons of features that are commonly associated with the genre, including a story-driven campaign, a host of PvE dungeons, a PvP arena, and, if you're part of a guild, guild wars.
Brown Dust incorporates the best features of various prominent games within its genre to come up with such an engaging gameplay. It's really gorgeous to behold as well! If this is something you'd like, do give the game a try!
Scythe
Scythe is the beloved board game that’s set in an alternate history, specifically the 1920s period. Now available on Steam, the developers, Asmodee Digital, has done an excellent job “porting” the board game into its new digital format, without losing any of its charm (the art is still as incredible as ever) and its fun gameplay. If you’ve always wanted to play Scythe but couldn’t find the players to play it with you, then you might want to check out this digital edition of the game!However, in spite of its tutorial, the game can still be somewhat complicated and hence, difficult to get into. But if you're willing to put in some time and effort, you'll be able to quickly learn the nuances of the game and use your discoveries to form new strategies which you can use against your opponents.
All in all, the digital edition of Scythe is everything a fan of the original board game could have dreamed of in a digital remake. The game retains its charm, its incredibly-fun gameplay, and of course, in time, the “DLCs” too. But even if you have not played the game before, you’ll still want to give Scythe a try if you enjoy strategy board games. It may be a bit difficult to get into at first, but with a bit of patience and effort (during the tutorial), you’ll be up and playing in no time!
