Arcania: Gothic 4 vs Inscryption
Arcania: Gothic 4
Arcania: Gothic 4 returns as the fourth and possibly the final installment of the Gothic series. This time, you take on the role of a nameless hero who just had his village destroyed by the king's paladins. However, as you set off on your quest of vengeance, you gradually realize that this event is driven by a malicious hidden power. The storyline is so much better in this installment due to the many surprises, plot twists and cliffhangers, and it does have a pretty nice combat system.However, many players put some flak to this game mainly because the game isn't exactly "Gothic" but pretending to be by using the "Gothic" name, but partly because the game does have some boring quests. That said, the game is still a pretty decent RPG.
Inscryption
Inscryption is turning out to be one of the biggest surprise hits of 2021, and it’s no surprise as to why. This roguelike card game blends deep deck-building elements merged with escape room puzzles and psychological horror. Paired with its rather unique and terrifying art style, it provides a gaming experience that just can’t be compared with anything else.The game is composed of three acts; one and three are card battlers, while the 2nd is a pixel-art, top-down RPG. You will be able to grow and strengthen your deck throughout your adventures. However, to get this done, you’ll need to go head-to-head against bosses and other opponents, taking part in highly-contested card battles. Don’t be intimidated by its status as a card game: it’s relatively simple to play yet has a certain depth to it.
Inscryption further impresses via its overall art direction. Every aspect, ranging from the environment to the card designs, looks like it can give even those with strong hearts the goosebumps. In addition, its story revolves around the card game and provides a feeling of both mystery and madness.
All in all, Inscryption is undoubtedly something both card game enthusiasts and those who love the thrill of horror experiences should dive into. Give it a shot and experience a card game horror story you never thought you’d ever encounter.
