Rise of the Tomb Raider vs This War of Mine
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Rise of the Tomb Raider lets you step into the shoes of the world's coolest female treasure hunter ever, Lara Croft, and set off on a brand-new thrilling adventure across Siberia in a race against a ruthless organization, the Trinity, to find the Lost City of Kitezh. As opposed to the older versions of the game, Lara will not only have to battle members of the Trinity but also the wildlife in the region so as to scavenge rare resources to craft new weapons and items. There are more ways for you to engage the enemy, including multiple forms of stealth-based takedowns that may remind you of the gameplay in games like Assassin's Creed, distractions and of course, the Rambo-styled, all-out frontal attack.Being a treasure hunter, you'll also get to explore a wide variety of tombs, each filled with intriguing puzzles, well-hidden traps and a ton of secrets to uncover. If you get the 20 Year Celebration version, you will also get bonus content like Blood Ties which will let you explore Croft Manor and Lara's Nightmare that will pit you against hordes of zombies as well as several co-op game modes like the Co-op Endurance mode which will let you test your survival skills with a friend.
Rise of the Tomb Raider may not be as awesome as the 2013 installment of the series, but it's a close second. Not to mention, if you're the sort who's really particular about the graphics, you might want to grab this game instead. It's the latest, and hence, the most graphically-pleasing Tomb Raider game, you'll get!
This War of Mine
This War of Mine is an indie, 2D survival management game that, unlike most games in its genre, is set not in a post-apocalyptic world but in a war-torn country. Despite being war-themed, the game doesn't cast you into the role of the brave soldier but of the average citizen trying to make the best of the situation and to survive long enough until the war breaks (if it ever).Due to this twist of perspective, along with the fact that every decision and action you make has consequences, both mentally and physically, on the character who did the deed as well as the team, the game ended up having a very tragic undertone and atmosphere throughout its gameplay. After all, you do have to make some difficult decisions in an effort to keep your people alive. From time to time, special events may also pop up and you will need to make a decision to be involved or to stay out of it.
Survival is also another important aspect of the game, and as such, you will need to scavenge for supplies and ensure that your people are well-fed and watered. Materials, tools, and items you gathered over your trips outdoors can be used to craft something else or be sold for some extra cash. During wartime, people are naturally more cautious and for some, more aggressive. It's wise to be careful whenever you encounter other "people" (they are NPCs), especially armed ones, lest your character get slain and your team stumbles straight into depression.
This War of Mine made headlights and game history with its challenging gameplay and of course, its brutally-honest look at the true victims of war. If you think your heart is ready to go through a rollercoaster of emotions, most of which are of the "sad" sort, then, you simply must give this game a try.
