Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare vs Prime World: Defenders 2
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare is the perfect game for players who enjoys the craziness in the whimsical Plants vs Zombies but longed for third-person, multiplayer battles. Unlike its tower-defense origins, this incredible spin-off transcends its humble beginnings and puts you into the shoes, or roots, of a zombie or a plant of your choice and throws you right into a huge battlefield where either the defenders (the plants) or the invaders (the zombies) will win.There are plenty of fun game modes, such as stealing the other team's tacos, to play in addition to the usual MMO shooter modes which can house up to 24-players in total, as well as entertaining 4-player co-op matches. Aside from an amazing gameplay, the game even boasts of a wide range of customizations, allowing you to create the goofiest zombie or plant around!
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare is a great spin-off that brought a primarily single-player game series into the multiplayer arena... and it did so quite successfully, so much so that the spin-off has a sequel of its own!
Prime World: Defenders 2
Prime World: Defenders 2 is the highly-anticipated sequel to one of the most innovative tower-defense/CCG hybrid games available. Developed by Nival, the game is set in the world of Prime where the valuable resource, which is also called prime, has caused much conflict between its inhabitants. In this game, it’s your prime directive to safeguard your stash of prime and your prime-mining sites from being overrun and destroyed by the local creatures, the aggressive creeps. Build and upgrade towers, cast spells, and defeat powerful bosses in this brilliant game!Ultimately though, Prime World: Defenders 2 is a sequel that seems to offer more of the same. However, the game comes packaged in what many players have called a “pay-to-win” wrapping. There is plenty of grind where there are almost none before, rare tower cards are more difficult to come by, and some fans may be instantly turned off by the microtransactions even though the game’s pretty generous with its premium currency and well… the game’s free-to-play.
So, overall, I’d say that in terms of the actual gameplay, the game is a fun, free-to-play tower defense/CCG to enjoy, especially if you loved the original. It’s definitely a game that’s in its own unique niche genre.
