Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile vs Surviving Mars
Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile
Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile is the fourth installment and an exclusive mobile-only tycoon game that follows in the footsteps of its predecessors. However, being a mobile game, the gameplay in Rollercoaster Tycoon 4 Mobile had to be drastically "dumbed down" because well, there is so many menu buttons you can place on the screen of a mobile device, but if you take that into consideration, the game excels despite some of its glitches and shortfalls.Not to mention, in addition to the usual scenarios and sandbox mode, this game also has a unique corporation mode where you can compete with another player and his/her theme park to see who's the best tycoon around. You can even play the slots mini-game that the game provides, and share coaster blueprints with your friends. But ultimately, the main selling point I dare say, is that the game is free-to-play. Now, even people who can't afford to buy any of its previous games can experience the wonders that the Rollercoaster Tycoon franchise can bring.
Surviving Mars
Surviving Mars is a colony-building game that's set on the red planet published by Paradox Interactive. In this game, you are in charge of the human colonization of Mars project. Aside from extracting various minerals and resources with your army of hardy drones, you'll need to set up a sustainable system of oxygen and water before bringing in the colonists to help with some of the work that drones simply aren't able to do on their own.Despite the obvious flaws in parts of its game mechanics which force players to micromanage almost everything to the point of being a hassle, Surviving Mars has a pretty nice concept and depth, as well as an even nicer style of graphics. The game could use a bit of work, that's for sure, but if they do the changes right, this might just turn into a formidable Mars colony-building simulation - a game that might just help us envision a future where whatever you've built is actually a reality.
