Puzzle Pirates: Dark Seas vs Tom Clancy's The Division
Puzzle Pirates: Dark Seas
Puzzle Pirates: Dark Seas lets you dive right into a brand-new puzzle adventure in this brilliant pirate-themed and kid-friendly MMO game. Touted as being the "gloomy" sequel to the popular Puzzle Pirates, this game retained many of the same features that had allowed the original to continue to thrive up until this day while adding in a dark twist to things to reflect its new theme.Play cooperatively with your fellow crew as you set sail to search for treasures or simply to take on other rival pirates at sea. With tons of fun mini puzzle games to enjoy, each of which has their own leaderboards for you to compete against other players on, you'll never get bored playing this game. Like the original, you can even customize your character by dressing him or her up in cool new clothes along with your own ship.
However, to spice things up, the game has also added in more challenging gameplay such as hunting sea monsters which can take quite awhile to complete. You can now become the governor of a Pirate Haven as well, in addition to managing your own shop, and crafting new items for your pirate to use or to sell.
Puzzle Pirates: Dark Seas is a great sequel to a timeless and child-friendly MMO game. Unlike its predecessor though, Puzzle Pirates: Dark Seas is completely free-to-play. No subscription is needed to enjoy everything the game has to offer! It's just a pity that the game population is on the lower-end, but you still can have quite a lot of fun, especially once you've relearned all the skills and tricks you need to be good at all the puzzles again.
Tom Clancy's The Division
Tom Clancy's The Division is an excitingly new franchise developed from the Tom Clancy name. Unlike the Ghost Recon series, this game features you as a special operative that has been deployed to a devastated New York City after a pandemic swept across the city and many others during Black Friday. As expected of any post-apocalyptic event, the less civic-minded people have emerged, such as the Rikers and the Cleaners, and they intend to take control of New York by instilling terror on any survivors they met (or sometimes actively sniff out). It is these poor survivors you'll be standing up for and protecting as you carry out your mission to hopefully clear out the enemies and bring some form of security back into the city.Featuring a tactical cover-based gameplay that Ghost Recon is famous for, The Division provides a game environment where the time of day or the weather can be used to your advantage when planning an assault. There is also the Dark Zone in the middle of Manhattan where you can work cooperatively with a team of players to scavenge for valuable loot left behind by the evacuated military or turn bandit and attack other players to steal their hard-earned loot. It's completely your choice! Being part of a triple-A franchise, the game is also expectedly excellent in terms of graphics and effects.
Tom Clancy's The Division is the MMO that many fans have been clamoring for. With tons of customization options, most of which are cosmetic in nature, for your character and a wide variety of weaponry, there are plenty of content to keep you engaged in this game, making its cost very much worth it especially if you'll be playing the game with friends.
