Lara Croft: Relic Run vs Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
Lara Croft: Relic Run
Lara Croft: Relic Run is a thrilling endless runner game where you get to once again join adventurer extraordinaire, Lara Croft, as she dashes through various ancient ruins in search of valuable artifacts to recover. With simply a swipe, you can make her swan dive off high cliffs or swing across using helpful vines like Tarzan. However, interestingly, you may also encounter ruthless rivals who won't hesitate to shoot you... unless of course, you shoot them first!The best part about this game though is the game's brilliant Curse system. Much like the dreaded "Draw 4" cards in UNO, players can send curses to their friends in order to ruin their run. However, if you managed to survive the curse intact, you will be rewarded with a chance to get sweet, sweet revenge by sending a curse of your own in return!
Featuring gorgeous graphics and a fun and unique gameplay, Lara Croft: Relic Run is not a game that relies too heavily on the popularity of the game franchise it is based on. In fact, if you enjoy endless runner games, you should play this game regardless of whether you knew who Lara Croft is. It's that good!
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows is the third installment of the popular, stealth-based action-adventure game, Thief, where you play as Garrett, the master thief that is rarely seen and never caught. With a large arsenal of thieves' tools to use, clever AI that will act on their suspicions and track evidence as well as fun, non-linear ways to approach an objective, the gameplay itself is incredible, as you might expect. And of course, you'll need to use whatever means necessary to sneak around, steal for the rich to line your own pockets and do other thief stuff. However, fate apparently has other plans for you and for Garrett...That being said, the Steam version of the game seem to be riddled with plenty of game-breaking bugs, making the game hardly playable even to the most ardent of fans. So, if you can get a CD copy of the game, then by all means... after all, it's a great game. But if Steam's the only choice for you, then you might want to just save up and buy something else instead.
