Crystal of Re:union vs Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey
Crystal of Re:union
Crystal of Re:union is an anime-themed, Japanese strategy/RPG that features a brilliant cast of interestingly unique hero characters, each with their own backstories for you to uncover, as well as a fun gameplay which will see your hero fighting off monsters or your armies besieging a rival kingdom. You can even work together with like-minded players in various Alliances to hasten the development of each other’s castles and defeat tougher monsters.Overall, Crystal of Re:union offers up an impressive amount of depth when it comes to developing its anime heroes and this is something that really shines through in this game. It’s gameplay, on the other hand, is interesting enough to be engaging but it doesn’t exactly add anything different to the mix. The storyline could use some work as well. So, if you’ve playing games like Throne: Kingdom at War or something similar and that you love anime, you might want to check this game out!
Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey
Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey is actually an official browser MMO game for the popular magic-dueling anime, Fairy Tail, unlike some of the anime MMOs we've encountered so far. Featuring all the familiar cast of characters, this game will pit your team of hand-picked heroes against the anime’s biggest villains as you battle your way through the Grand Magic Games and hopefully, help your guild, Fairy Tail, secure its title of being the most powerful magic guild in Fiore. However, things don’t go as planned and soon enough, you may find yourself embroiled in an adventure that’s much more intriguing…The game plays out much like your typical browser MMO. This basically means that combat is automated and questing is semi-automated as well. You won't be fighting alone either - you will eventually be able to assemble a team of mages, along with a pet and mount, to help you along in your journey. These mages, mount and pet can of course be upgraded to increase their combat efficiency and hence, your overall combat power.
Fairy Tail: Hero's Journey may have the blessing and perhaps even backing of the actual anime franchise, but the game isn't exactly breaking the typical mould that defines a browser MMO. It's fun enough for fans of the anime and for casual-like MMOs though, and if you're among the players who fall into one of these two camps, you'll want to give the game a try.
