Sheltered vs Stonehearth
Sheltered
Sheltered is, in some way, a mixture of the survival management gameplay that Fallout Shelter has popularized and the emotional rollercoaster that This War of Mine puts you through, all rolled into a single game. In this game, you play as the protector of a family of four who managed to make their way to a deserted shelter in a dreary, post-apocalyptic world. Like Fallout Shelter, you can plan, build and expand your bunker to accommodate more facilities and resources you've scavenged from your daily expeditions above ground.However, like This War of Mine, the game presents you with a ton of randomly selected scenarios, most of which will put you in a moral dilemma as you are forced to choose between forsaking your family's survival or your humanity/morality. As your bunker grows, you can also recruit more people to join you. Knowing who to trust enough to allow them access to your shelter is another dilemma that you'll probably need to face in this game.
Sheltered is the perfectly-designed game for players who find Fallout Shelter a bit too casual for their liking and This War of Mine a bit too restricted. If you' like what you've read so far, then do get the game from Steam. You can thank me later!
Stonehearth
Stonehearth is the game you'll want to play if you enjoy playing Minecraft because you can build your very own city. Although the game is basically a sandbox game like Minecraft, it has a building aspect that's much more similar to Craft the World... except that in Stonehearth, everything's in glorious 3D. In this game, you play as the leader of a small handful of adorable-looking pioneers who are looking for a new place to settle down. There isn't a lot of digging involved in Stonehearth though you still need to get your pioneers to collect resources from the environment or to plant and harvest their own.Like in Craft the World, you'll need to provide shelter for your people and equip them with the necessary equipment so they can fend off attacks during the night. However, when it comes to crafting, Stonehearth has a much more diverse and in-depth crafting system. The building system in this game is also pretty unique though it can be rather restrictive when compared to Minecraft since the most "building" you'll be doing is mainly houses for your villagers. Of course, let's not forget about the game's much better-looking graphics!
In some way, Stonehearth is more of a survival/town-building game than a pure sandbox game like Minecraft. However, it is perfect for players who enjoy having an entire town of minions to order around, and the satisfaction of leading and developing a tribe. For a price tag of $24.99 (on Steam), Stonehearth can be a bit on the costly side, but if this is the sort of game you're into, the game will always be worth the price. You can show your support to the indie developers behind this game as well... so there's that!
