Don't Starve Together vs Verdant Skies
Don't Starve Together
Don't Starve Together is the multiplayer version of hit indie survival game, Don't Starve. However, as opposed to taking the short way out and simply turn the game intoa multiplayer, the developers have added a ton of improved mechanics and features which makes playing with friends or even random strangers online a whole lot more entertaining in this game. Of course, everything that was previously present in the previous game will still be retained here, so expect to see lumbering tree ents, werepigs and more... and naturally, to die a lot because that's the learning curve in this game.Don't Starve Together is the long-awaited multiplayer expansion for players who love surviving with friends. Enjoy hilarious moments of discovery and deaths together and whatever you do... don't starve!
Verdant Skies
Verdant Skies is an indie farm simulation/RPG combined with a pretty unique art style and visual novel-like dialogue choices. In this game, you play as the latest pioneer who was sent from Earth to a habitable alien planet whose main job is to set up and manage the farms at the colony, but of course, you are often asked to help out other characters with their tasks. You can also interact with the characters to increase your relationship level and eventually unlock new options such as being able to date them and start a family.Verdant Skies also features a straightforward gathering and crafting where every almost every action you take in this game will cost you time and/or energy. There's no need to restore the time you lost, but energy can be easily restored by consuming food. As a game that's very similar to Harvest Moon in essence, the game's farming aspect can be impressively in-depth, allowing you to splice the genes of your crops and your livestock to produce much more superior versions.
Verdant Skies is definitely the sort of game you'd want to check out if you've loved playing games like Harvest Moon, Staxel and even My Time at Portia. The game isn't too expensive either, considering the hours you can get out of it.
