Infinity Blade III vs The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate
Infinity Blade III
Infinity Blade III is the latest installment of the popular Infinity Blade series where you’ll join Siris, and his companions, Isa and the God-King Raidriar as they face the Worker of Secrets and his army of Deathless titans. Instead of playing as Siris, which you still can by the way, the game allows you to play as the stealthy female warrior-thief, Isa, as well. Each character will have access to uniquely different weapons and items, providing players with a replayability that’s not present in any of the previous games.The gameplay is still as amazing as usual, though the game world has seen a huge update, giving players a more stunning and immersive land to explore. You’ll also be able to set up a base of operations, called the Hideout, where you can recruit allies who happened to be skilled artisans who help you improve your combat capabilities and unlock new skills. The global ClashMob challenges are still present in this game, but like Infinity Blade II, these challenges are entirely optional.
Infinity Blade III is an impressive addition to the Infinity Blade series and is well-worth the money especially if you already got the first two games.
The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate
The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate is the highly-anticipated sequel to the roguelike dungeon crawler niche hit of the same name. The gameplay is pretty much similar to the latter - it can get rather grindy after a while. This also means turn-based combat supplemented by skills, gear that can be upgraded, and loot that you can only bring out of the dungeon if it has a grade that's gold or above.What's different about this game though is the fact that you can team up with other players and head into the dungeon together in real time! The game is also a lot more social since it has a guild feature which allows players-slash-adventurers to find reliable buddies to raid dungeons with. Although there isn't exactly a story per se in the original game, this time around, the game showcases a short yet well-described introduction which explains the presence of a so-called time gate which appeared in town one day.
The social features in The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate is definitely a step in the right direction for the game franchise. However, the game is still in development and hence, many (other) aspects of the game aren't as nice as they should be right now. With feedback from the players and changes to the game, hopefully, this sequel will turn out to be as great as the original!
