Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace vs Rappelz
Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace
Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace is a story-driven, party-based adventure RPG complete with unique gridless turn-based combat, and a creepy Lovecraftian theme. In this game, you get to control a ragtag team of investigators with varying experiences and talents. The goal here is to track down the mysterious cultists who are involved in the murder of Professor Tillinghast during what seems to be a sacrificial ritual. Will you be able to find out what’s really going on and who’s to blame for the murder?As someone who has not played the board game version of Arkham Horror before, this turn-based adventure RPG is a pretty great introduction. I absolutely love the horror-themed storytelling here and the voice acting is simply brilliant. Since I’m an avid fan of turn-based RPGs, the gridless gameplay here is unique enough to help it stand out. That said, the game is unfortunately marred by several glitches, especially the annoying camera glitch which can only be fixed by reloading a previous checkpoint.
So, to sum up, Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace may not be triple-A level, but it’s a solidly fun game in spite of its bugs and is still worth the purchase.
Rappelz
Rappelz is an MMORPG that was released in 2009 and developed by Gala Lab in South Korea. It features a traditional dark fantasy world with familiar mechanics, such as running dungeons, questing and PvPing. The game also has three distinct races that provide different lore and a set of character classes to unlock through character progression. Interestingly though, it also has an amazing pet system where players can capture and train their own pets so they can aid them in battle.Despite being an old game with somewhat outdated visuals, Rappelz still has some interesting features that anyone can still enjoy trying it out. The best part though is that the game still receives new content update every month to keep players hooked. It has recently been updated with a brand-new expansion and this is not something that's about to stop any time soon!
