Atlantica Online vs Orcs Must Die: Unchained
Atlantica Online
Atlantica Online is a pretty old MMORPG that has been around since 2008. As opposed to the usual action-based or even the hack-and-slash gameplay that most MMORPGs offer, this game is perhaps the first of its kind (and by "kind" we mean Free-to-play MMOs) to merge strategy/tactics with RPG, allowing players to fight their enemies using a team of mercs rather than just a single main hero. In fact, this gameplay formula has actually been adopted and used in many browser-based MMOs today.Although ultimately the main villian in the game is Riederani and his army, the storyline in this game is also slightly different based on which faction you choose to opt for, either the Scion or the Atlantian. There are plenty of character classes too, each playing their own roles within the team. Despite its age, Atlantica Online still sports a robust in-game economy and is a strong proponent of fairplay when it comes to PvP.
However, the best part about this game is its link to events happening in real life. The game itself is based on the real map of the world we live in and as such, major events that recently happened or had happened ages ago in our world will be manisfested, one way or another, in the game. How awesome is that?
Atlantica Online might not remotely resemble the graphical quality of today's MMORPGs, but the game itself is unique and fun enough to stick around until today. This speaks volume about the value that this game brings to the lives of many gamers worldwide, doesn't it? If you enjoy being intrigued by games and you don't really mind poorer visuals, then this is a game you should try out.
Orcs Must Die: Unchained
Orcs Must Die: Unchained is the free to play version of the popular Orcs Must Die game franchise. Being the third installment of the said franchise, the game still features the series' iconic tower defense-like (but with traps) gameplay but it has added a new multiplayer aspect that seem to combine the popular MOBA genre with tower defense, providing the game with a more competitive side. Interestingly, the game even let you decide which creeps you want to deploy, giving players more flexibility to craft the commonly AI-controlled element to suit their intentions be it to defend their own core or to heighten the offensive and put pressure on the opposing team's defenses. Of course, let's not forget about the franchise hallmark sense of humor as well - thankfully, this is as much as a part of Orcs Must Die 1 and 2 as it is in this MOBA-like game.As unique as this game is though, Orcs Must Die: Unchained hasn't really taken off into the mainstream, perhaps mainly because the game level-restricts its maps, forcing lower level players to replay the same low-level map over and over until they manage to unlock a new one. Not to mention, many fans of their previous game was not happy that the game has deviated so much from its original. However, if you're looking for a truly unique MOBA with tower defense elements, Orcs Must Die: Unchained is a very good game to play.
