Metallic Child vs Zenonia S: Rifts in Time
Metallic Child
Metallic Child is a sci-fi-themed roguelike action RPG that’s set onboard the space laboratory known as Life Stream. In this game, you play as a human controlling Rona, the very first metallic child created by Dr Irene who’s on a mission to figure out why her creator caused a rebellion and took control of both the other metallic children she has created and also the space lab that housed all of them. Can you defeat all the other metallic children and perhaps convince the good doctor to see the error of her ways?All in all, Metallic Child is a well-made and designed action roguelite with fun hack and slash gameplay, an engaging story, gorgeous anime graphics, and a difficulty level that you can adjust to your own skill level and needs. Don’t let the game’s high-ish price tag put you off! You’ll definitely find a lot of value in this game, especially if you’re already a fan of roguelites and anime. That said, although the game can be played on the good ol’ keyboard and mouse, it’s actually designed for controllers and would play even better if you use them.
Zenonia S: Rifts in Time
Zenonia S: Rifts in Time is an anime-inspired MMORPG title - the first of its kind - within the Zenonia game series. Apparently, Gamevil has given up adding numbers to their single-player Zenonia series and have created something of a spin-off MMO. Regardless of the major shift from single to multiplayer, the game still retains the charm that has rocketed the series to fame in the first place - it's Legend of Zelda-like experience albeit in a more anime format.Being an MMO now, the game provids players with an online hub of sorts - a virtual town - to interact with each other and with various helpful NPCs including quest givers and PvP arena ringmasters. The game also features the usual hack-and-slash combat system, many character classes and pretty graphics.
Although it's nice that the game's now a multiplayer game, we feel like the game has not really made the most of its multiplayer function and had restricted itself in terms of the features that are available. Not to mention, having a great storyline has never been this series' storng suit and this weakness is very evident in this game.
All in all though, if you've always wanted to try an MMO version of Zenonia, this game definitely fit the bill in spite of some of its downsides. After all, it's a free game. So, download it today on your mobile devices and give it a try!
