Last Day on Earth: Survival vs State of Decay
Last Day on Earth: Survival
Last Day on Earth: Survival is one of the best zombie-themed survival MMO games to have hit the mobile platform and it is not at all surprising to see how well the game is doing on both GooglePlay and the Appstore. In this game, you'll be spending most of your time harvesting resources just so you can build and reinforce your shelter on a separate, instanced land that can be attacked by other players and zombie hordes alike. So, there isn't exactly a point in hoarding resources when your shelter's defenses are weak enough for other players to simply relieve you of your hard work.There are plenty of locations for you to explore and even zombie-infested, dungeon-like military bunkers to find better goods like guns, ammo, weapon parts and other items; an in-depth crafting system which has long crafting duration - the game is free-to-play after all; as well as a ruthless open world PvP where personal survival is of utmost importance. Of course, you will also need to keep your character well-fed and hydrated or he will die and whatever he's carrying will be up for grabs for any lucky passer-bys.
Last Day on Earth: Survival may be an excellent game, but it still have some flaws. For instance, it'd be nice to have a better tutorial to ease new players into the game and perhaps a PvP cap to prevent higher level players from bullying lower level ones. That said, the game is as close to a fun and hardcore survival game that you can play on the go. So, if you're interested, make sure to check the game out.
State of Decay
State of Decay is a pretty unique zombie survival RPG that doesn't only feature a vast open world for you to explore but also allows you to build a base, fortify it and recruit survivors (NPCs), each with their own personalities and characteristics, that you encounter to join you. You can even ask them to join you as you venture out into the world to find more items. The game's crafting system is pretty in-depth as well along with an interesting scavenging system that allows you to speed up the process of scavenging but at the cost of potentially attracting surrounding zombies to swarm to your location. Aside from the many weapons available, tere are even a wide variety of vehicles for you to drive around and ram zombies with.Granted that the game still has some bugs and that the developers had earned a pretty bad rep for apparently releasing a patch as a separate DLC and wanting players to pay for it, State of Decay is still undoubtedly a very fun zombie survival game to play. If you can get the game at a discount, this game is definitely worth the price, especially for fans of the genre.
