New Super Mario Bros vs Risk of Rain
New Super Mario Bros
New Super Mario Bros is an excellent "comeback game" for a classic that had been around for more than 20 years. Available for the Nintendo DS, New Super Mario Bros boasts of having brilliant 3D graphics, and a next-level gameplay that adds to and improves on everything you've loved in the older version. There are new power-ups, moves, worlds, levels, as well as secrets to find. There is also 2 multiplayer modes in this game, Mario vs. Luigi and Minigames. Mario vs. Luigi will see you racing against your brother to collect stars while Minigames offers you a wide range of fun relaxing mini-games that you can play solo or play with up to 4 other players in the Minigames tournament.With so many new features to offer, New Super Mario Bros has definitely one-upped its predecessor by more than a mile. If you've enjoyed playing Super Mario Bros, you'll want to get this game as well.
Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a rogue-like, action platformer that is difficult enough to be challenging and is punishing (perma-death). You can choose to face the constantly spawning enemies alone - well, not exactly since you'll have your drone - or cooperatively with up to 3 other friends in hopes of collecting all the tools you need to find the teleporter machine and to finally, head back home. The enemies you fight are randomly generated by combining traits and abilities from a fixed yet extensive list as well, making the game a lot more unpredictable and hence, enjoyable.In addition to the 12 unique characters that you can unlock and a plethora of powerups to use, the game is also set on a mysterious planet with diverse biomes, ranging from dark forests to the frozen tundra. There is even an engrossing storyline which you can slowly piece together by collecting items and monster logs in your adventures.
Risk of Rain is definitely a fun and challenging platform game to play alone, but it particularly shines when you play it with friends. Time just seems to fly by in co-op mode and of course, let's not forget about the hilarious moments when one of you messed up (intentionally or otherwise).
