Carcassonne vs Shogun: Total War
Carcassonne
Carcassonne is the digitized version of the popular empire-building physical board game of the same name. This digital game stays true to the fun and strategic gameplay that had made the game famous. Furthermore, this game features a single player mode where you can play with challenging AIs and also a multiplayer mode (of up to 6 players) where you can pit your skills against other players worldwide. So, even if you don’t like playing competitively, the game’s multiple AIs are challenging enough to keep you engaged for hours on end.Carcassonne- Tiles & Tactics is not only a well-designed digital version of its renowned counterpart, but the game also contains the same familiar and yet strategic gameplay that will truly put your skills to the test. So, although you may have not played this game before, but you have a penchant for strategy games, you might still have to give this game a try. It’s not exactly a very costly game either, and considering the hours of fun you can eek out of it, it is worth every cent you spend.
If you’re interested, you can purchase Carcassonne on Steam for the low price of $9.99; or on Google Play for around $2.50.
Shogun: Total War
Shogun: Total War is the first original title in a legendary, 15-year (and counting), award-winning, real-time strategy game series that currently spanned across multiple themes and settings. However, this game is set in ancient Japan - 1542 to be exact - when the last shogunate collapsed and the entire nation is thrown into conflict as multiple daimyo (faction leaders) vie for the most powerful seat. To make things worst, Europeans have also ventured to island at this point, bringing guns, religion and disease - factors that you'll eventually have to deal with if you are to attain the people's support and conquer the whole of Japan.The gameplay in Shogun: Total War is akin to Rise of Nations in the sense that each battle is carried out in real-time, but moving your troops on the world map is pretty much turn-based (Risk-style). However, unlike the latter, the battle itself is purely consisted of the actual fighting rather than having you build a base and amassing resources and an army. Instead, Shogun lets you view the entire battlefield from any view you like and send commands to your troops as the battle unfolds. This is basically something that's unheard of until this game came along.
Shogun: Total War may be an old game by modern standards, and due to this, many players might simply opt for its sequel in order to have a taste of that this game has to offer. However, if you truly want to experience the very first of the Total War series, this is the game to play.
