DayZ vs Flame in the Flood
DayZ
DayZ is a survival-themed, first person MMO game set in a post-apocalyptic world that's utterly devastated by a virulent disease. The game provides players with a beautiful yet dangerous map of Chernarus, a post soviet state to explore and to scavenge for whatever resources - as sparse as they may be - that you can find. Craft a wide variety of useful items or use the materials you have to improve or customize the equipment and weapons you already have... literally every item in this game can be upgraded. You can customize the look of your survivor with a wide variety of clothing too.Previously a mod for the game, Arma III, DayZ had come a long way to now being a standalone game. Unfortunately, the game is famous for its player-breaking bugs and glitches, and well, this is pretty understandable considering that the game's still in its early access phase. Due to this, even the most hardcore proponents of this game, the ones who has put in hundreds of hours into this game, will advise you to not get this game unless you truly want to help out with the game's development. If not, the game is more frustrating than it is fun, as exciting as the concept of the game may be, and we would not recommend you to get this game in its current state.
Flame in the Flood
Flame in the Flood is a rather unique survival game that's developed by the ex-developers of Bioshock. Instead of featuring an open world, the game places you on a rickety raft, which you can then upgrade as you gather the necessary materials, that's being dragged down a long windy river. The waters aren't always smooth and easily navigatable as you might expect and from time to time, particularly in between "zones", you'll encounter a stretch of whitewater rapids that will truly challenge your rafting skills.In this game, you will also encounter locations where you can dock your raft at and explore. From churches to farms, each location offers varying amount of resources for you to gather, and if you're lucky, a place for you to take shelter for the night. These locations aren't all safe though! Aside from the more harmless wildlife like rabbits, you may encounter dangerous animals that can cause severe harm to your character - you may even die either from being gored by a wild boar or from injuries sustained from the fight.
As a survival game, there are several indicators that you'll need to keep your eyes on. Fail to do so and you may die of exhaustion, thirst, hunger or hypothermia. The game also features a pretty in-depth crafting system where you can produce useful items like bandages for your wounds and clothes to keep your character warm.
Flame in the Flood is a truly hardcore survival game. It's merciless in its gameplay, pitting you against challenges after challenges until your character can take no more. If you get frustrated easily, this is definitely not for you, but if you love a challenge, you might just want to give this game a try.
