Jaipur vs Total War: Shogun 2
Jaipur
Jaipur is an incredibly strategic and fun, 2-player card and chips game that's based off on the buying and selling that's going on in the thriving marketplace of Jaipur back in the day. In this game, your goal is to make as much money as possible - more than your opponent, obviously - by trading goods at the market. You can play the game against an AI of a difficulty of your choosing via Solo mode or you can try your hand against a friend in its Pass and Play mode or another player online in its Online Duel mode.Interestingly, the game offers a fascinating campaign where you'll compete with other merchants across various districts in India to edge out the competition and become the sole monopoly. From time to time, you may encounter scenarios in which a local asked you for some monetary help or some bully came over to your store to demand "protection money" as well. The decisions you make may aid you, or cause you harm, as you progress through the campaign.
Despite its seemingly complicated rules, Jaipur is a really easy game to play once you go through its tutorial. It's incredibly strategic too as you may need to make drastic moves to deny your opponent a card. If you enjoy strategic card games that deal in trading in general, you'll love Jaipur.
Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
