Splendor vs XCOM 2
Splendor
Splendor is the official digital adaptation of the popular cards-and-chips game of the same name. In this game, you'll work on increasing your prestige by trading gems and developing your town. With time and enough development cards, you may even attract the attention of powerful nobles to gain even more prestige!The gameplay can be a bit harder to get into especially if you have not played the game before, but once you do, you'll realize that the game is actually quite simple to play. Of course, "simple to play" doesn't mean "simple to win" though! You will still need to play a ton of matches before you can develop your own unique strategies which you then use to one-up your opponents. There are also single-player challenges for you to hone your Splendor skills!
This digital adaptation of Splendor stayed true to its original cards-and-chips game, but I find it falls a bit short of its full potential, mainly because it doesn't make full use of what the digital world can offer.
XCOM 2
XCOM 2 is the highly anticipated and very well-received sequel to XCOM: Enemy Unknown, the award-winning strategy game of the year 2012. Set in world dominated by aliens 20 years into the future, XCOM 2 puts you in charge of the remnants of the decimated XCOM forces who will be lending their skills and abilities to humanity's growing resistance movement. XCOM 2 offers players with a whole new list of resistance fighters to recruit, an intriguing tactically-based guerrilla combat, a wide variety of enemies, and an in-depth technology tree for you to unlock.Interestingly, in addition to a 1-on-1 party-based multiplayer game mode, the game also provides tools for its community of players to create not only their own maps but also their own campaigns, aliens, classes, and gameplay features. They can even share their creations with the world.
Fans of XCOM will be delighted with this sequel mainly because it is so much better in every possible way. Sounds like a game you'd like to play? Well, buy the game today - you wopn't regret it, that's for sure!
