Highrisers vs Metro: Last Light
Highrisers
Highrisers is an “escape from the tower”-style survival-slash-resource management game that’s fairly similar to the first Skyhill game, except that instead of traveling to the lobby, your end goal here is to scavenge the resources you need from the lower floors to fix the helicopter on the rooftop so your team of 4 survivors (if none of them died, that is) can escape the tower. It’s basically a quarter of the plot of Zack Synder’s most recent and relatively controversial zombie flick, Army of the Dead, really… and like the film, the game is fun but it has its own caveats.And of course, there are the zombies… ahem… I mean, mutants that will attack your team and any fortifications you’ve put up if they spot you… so there’s that.
For what it’s worth, I really liked resource management-based survival games like Highrisers and I have had a pretty good experience with the game myself, minus all the issues I’ve pointed out. The game definitely has some good stuff going for it, but the dev team really needs to work on the game more to revamp some of the gameplay designs and also to fix the game-breaking bugs reported by their players. Only then I would be comfortable recommending the game. For now though, it’s probably wise to keep it in your wishlist.
Metro: Last Light
Metro: Last Light is the sequel to a rather popular, post-apocalyptic themed, first-person action-shooter game series, Metro. It's the year 2034 now and humanity - what's left of it anyway - is still fighting to eke out a living and also survive the mutants that are roaming a devastated Moscow, above and below ground. Your group of survivors is running low on supplies and the resources you can scavenge is getting scarcer everyday, but the D6 bunker your group has found might contain enough supplies to last you for years.Unfortunately, the other factions are well-aware of the bunker's existence as well, and an all-out war is about to erupt over the last possible huge cache of supplies left in Moscow. With such a gripping story as a foundation, Metro: Last Light has an atmosphere that is truly immersive and a gameplay that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Will your group survive the impending war? Or will the remnants of humanity crumble to dust?
