Abzu vs Alto's Adventure
Abzu
Abzu is unlike any game you may have played before. As opposed to many games that focus just a tad bit too much on fighting and killing one another, Abzu is a beautiful exploration and interactive-styled adventure-like game that allows you to simply explore the wonderous and vibrant underwater world. Play as the Diver and immerse yourself in a world filled with abundant sea life and mystery while doing impressive underwater acrobatics or even simply swimming around with the fishes... fishes or any underwater wildlife that actually can react to your presence rather than just ignoring you.The feeling of relaxing quietness that Abzu can evoke is so uncanny. Despite the graphics, which doesn't look at all like the real-life version (this is not a criticism by the way, we're just pointing out a fact), the game is just so well-designed that you actually feel like you're diving underwater while playing the game. We'd highly recommend this game if you're looking for a game to play to destress or just to experience something completely new.
Alto's Adventure
Alto's Adventure is an endless runner game that lets you join Alto and his friends as they dash through beautiful, procedurally-generated landscapes, from ancient ruins to the challenging slopes of the alpines, via snowboarding. As you snowboard, you'll also get to gather runaway llamas, brave terrible weather, dive off cliffs, and even leap over gaping chasms all the while escaping the mountain elders.The gameplay in Alto's Adventure is also governed strictly by realistic physics so if you miss that ledge and fell to your doom, it is not the RNG's fault... just sayin'.
Alto's Adventure is a different sort of endless running game that has a sort of calmness to it despite being fast-paced as opposed to games like Temple Run where it gets increasingly frantic as you play the game.
