Creativerse vs Surviving Mars
Creativerse
Creativerse is a voxel-based, sandbox MMO game that's still relatively new on the internet. Available on Steam, the game may seem to be a Minecraft clone at first glance, but we assure you - it's most definitely not a clone despite retaining most of the core game concepts that had made Minecraft so popular.So, basically, you'll be mining for blocks out in the world and craft them into weapons, structures, tools (including mechanical wings that will allow you to fly) and the like at the respective crafting tables. Of course, there's also the not-so-minor detail of surviving to the next day unharmed and well-fed, which mainly involves you building up your own shelter and gathering foodstuff.
Unlike Minecraft though, Creativerse is more of an MMO since it has an interesting storyline, providing players with a sense of direction that isn't obviously present in Minecraft. You'll also have access to more convenience items such as the touchstone which will teleport you to a single pre-linked spawning location... and yes, the location can be set at your shelter as well.
So, if all of these sound great to you, well, be sure to download Creativerse on Steam now and check out the game. It's admittedly no Minecraft, but some may go as far out as to say that Creativerse is so much better.
Surviving Mars
Surviving Mars is a colony-building game that's set on the red planet published by Paradox Interactive. In this game, you are in charge of the human colonization of Mars project. Aside from extracting various minerals and resources with your army of hardy drones, you'll need to set up a sustainable system of oxygen and water before bringing in the colonists to help with some of the work that drones simply aren't able to do on their own.Despite the obvious flaws in parts of its game mechanics which force players to micromanage almost everything to the point of being a hassle, Surviving Mars has a pretty nice concept and depth, as well as an even nicer style of graphics. The game could use a bit of work, that's for sure, but if they do the changes right, this might just turn into a formidable Mars colony-building simulation - a game that might just help us envision a future where whatever you've built is actually a reality.
