Kainga: Seeds of Civilization vs Northgard
Kainga: Seeds of Civilization
Kainga: Seeds of Civilization , putting it simply, is a curious and intriguing city-builder/RTS game that offers several campaign-like missions where the goal is to complete the objectives needed before the game becomes too difficult to have your people survive through. Not only does it come with a brilliant soundtrack, but the game also has one-of-a-kind art, and most important of all, its RTS-style gameplay. Of course, there's also the fact that you can tame massive beasts in the game and build stuff on their backs or even use them as war mounts to attack your enemies.The game is already showing a lot of promise despite still being in Early Access. With time and some hard work patching up the bugs and improving on certain existing gameplay mechanics in-game, I’m confident that Kainga will be one of those decade-defining indie games for its efforts in innovating a stagnating genre.
Northgard
Northgard is a rather unique city-builder/strategy game that allows you to lead a group of Northmen to unknown new shores in hopes of making a life there. Like most city-building games, you'll need to help them set up a home, assign your Vikings to perform various roles, ensure there is enough food to feed the entire village, and amass a small army to help defend your territories from other hostile clans. The strategic aspects of the game may not be obvious at first but you'll quickly realize that new territories that you discover (you don't exactly need to conquer it for this to work) will present new strategic opportunities for your clan to expand or grow, be it new sources for food or a nice place to set up a new trading post. There are many victory conditions as well, so it's not always "kill or be killed" in this game.Northgard offers players a single player experience by playing with AIs with various personalities or with their friends online. However, many players have reported that the game does have a somewhat flawed AI-player relationship. Even if you're best buddies with an AI's clan through healthy trading relationships, their clan members will still attack your people, which frankly feels a lot like a betrayal. It'd be nice to have a tutorial as well.
That said though, Northgard is an impressive game especially if you enjoy a bit of city-builder/strategy game like Valhalla Hills.
