Colony Survival vs Griefhelm
Colony Survival
Colony Survival is a voxel-based town-building simulation game that emphasizes on ensuring the survival (and expansion) of your colony of people, be it by making sure they have enough food to not starve to death or by stationing enough archers around the parameter of your castle walls to repel zombies. Like Minecraft or any sandbox games, you are free to build any base you like (underground, in the sky, or a proper medieval castle with a moat and a drawbridge) as long as you've got the materials (a.k.a. blocks) to go with it and there are various crafting stations which you can build and then assign a worker to just so you can create better and more advanced items.Aside from its infinite, procedurally-generated world, the game also uses an advanced 3D dynamic pathfinding system, allowing you to funnel your people along a specific path simply by having the necessary designs. The same goes for the zombies which usually come out at night to besiege your castle and your sleeping populace. As long as the zombies can't get in and slaughter your people, you can keep expanding your population and your kingdom to whatever size you like!
Colony Survival can even be customized to whatever difficulty you like, depending on how well you think you can best the zombies. So, if you enjoy Minecraft-like games but you also happen to enjoy a "build your own maze", tower defense-like gameplay, then Colony Survival game is definitely for you!
Griefhelm
Griefhelm is a realistic 2D medieval sword-fighting game with a Slay the Spire-like progression and a pretty brutal difficulty level in the sense that if you let your opponent get in a couple of hits, you’re dead. Offering several game modes and perks, the game focuses a lot on timing your actions to best your opponent on the battlefield.Since timing is crucial in this game, you’d best be vigilant of the several combat cues your enemies may make a split second before the animation starts. If you do it precisely right, then you might just survive the attacks and even find a few openings of your own to strike. This game is definitely not the mindless hack-and-slash that many other games seem to offer. Every action you take in this game is deliberate and this makes every successful kill so much more satisfying.
Now, all of these fights are scattered across nodes in a progression map that’s somewhat similar to Slay the Spire. What this means is that you’ve got a choice as to which path you want to take and, in this game, you’ll usually have at least 2. Different paths offer different levels and types of challenges, and hence, different rewards so it’s important for you to decide which reward is most worthwhile for you.
To sum up, Griefhelm is truly in a class of its own. I’ve seen many players compare the game disfavorably against Nidhogg and that may be true, but for someone who has only played For Honor before, Griefhelm really brings swordplay to a different dimension… literally (Hint: 2D as opposed to 3D)!
