Darkest Dungeon vs The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
Darkest Dungeon
Darkest Dungeon is a hardcore turn-based dungeon crawler with a rather unique gothic theme that explores the psychological stresses of adventuring as well as a beautiful, comic-like art style. Play through the more realistic (not glorified) life of an adventurer as you will not only fight challenging and devious enemies, but also face a host of problems that most adventure RPGs simply turn a blind eye to such as the stress and other mental of the day-to-day of an adventurer, famine, disease and of course, the dark feeling that arose when whatever you do doesn't really seem to matter.The game is pretty much story-driven (as you might ahve expected), but it does also feature a rather innovative turn-based combat as well as over 16 different hero classes for you to play as and recruit to your party. As mentioned, the game's a hardcore game as well - this means permadeath, procedural dungeons and practically endless replay value!
If you think you'd enjoy a more narrative-driven dungeon crawler that's very different from all the other similar games you might have played, Darkest Dungeon is definitely a game you'll want to get.
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is not the sequel to the popular indie Rogue-like game, The Binding of Isaac. Instead, this Rebirth version is simply a remake of the game featuring enhanced graphics, a better game engine, a more polished artwork as well as cleaner visual effects. The gameplay is still basically the game, with the same depressing storyline and the same crazy level of replayability. However, this time around, the game offers players the possibly of playing co-op (2 players) in addition to better support for controllers (mainly because the game is, unlike the previous, available on Xbox and Playstation), a bunch of achievements, and a long list of unique characters for its co-op mode.If you've loved The Binding of Isaac, you might want to grab The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth just for the co-op mode and the overall better gaming experience.
