Dog Duty vs Sins of a Solar Empire
Dog Duty
Dog Duty is a tactical strategy game with cool pixel art that has a fun and challenging, arcade-based combat and a familiar "save the world" theme where the goal is to defeat all the Octopus Commander’s lieutenants and ultimately take down the commander itself, liberating the world from its tyranny.The gameplay here comes in two forms – the “open-world format” where you control the vehicle your squad is on rather than the squad itself, and of course, the arcade shooter component in which you’ll get to control individual team members as you go about completing your mission and/or liberating squid-controlled locations.
All in all, Dog Duty is definitely a game worth keeping an eye on. It is a tactical strategy game that tries very hard to differentiate itself from other similar games within the genre… and in that respect, the game did really well. The gameplay is also both entertaining and not-too-difficult to play, at least for the first playthrough, but once you complete the game, you should be able to replay the game at a much higher difficulty.
Sins of a Solar Empire
Sins of a Solar Empire is a massive real-time strategy game with an impressively in-depth background story filled with political intrigue, faction conflicts and a mysterious divisive influence that threatens to tear the Advent Unity apart from within. Play as a loyalist ot a rebel and amass a space fleet consisting of a wide variety of ships including Capital ships, Corvettes and the scales-tipping Titan class warships. Sins of a Solar Empire is also a uniquely non-linear game where there are multiple paths, be it military action or diplomacy, that you can take to obtain victory.The game even attempted to coin a new genre called "4X" that stands for eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate which is basically what the game is all about. You'll be exploring the solar system, expanding your fleet, exploiting allies and exterminating your enemies. After all, the survival of your faction should be your sole concern.
So, if building massive empires in space is your thing, Sins of a Solar Empire is exactly the game you need to play.
