Dark Souls: Prepare to Die vs Rocket Royale
Dark Souls: Prepare to Die
Dark Souls: Prepare to Die is one of the scariest and hardcore action role-playing game that's set in a dark fantasy world filled with demons, monsters, and even dragons. Unlike most games where dying is heavily penalized, this game actually lets you use every one of your deaths as a stepping stone to learn the where to avoid and where to press on... so expect to die... a lot. Sometimes, the deaths of the other players - their spirits, so to speak - will also show up in your game so you can learn from their mistakes before you atttempt a challenging part of the game.By playing, you'll be able to improve your mastery over weapons, spells, and other combat mechanics which will in turn help you progress and access tougher challenges. This Prepare to Die edition also features new mechanics, including Bonfires which serve as check points and will replenish your health and magic but at a pretty heavy cost - all the mobs you've killed will respawn. Dark Souls is a networked game and as such, you may bump into other players while dungeon crawling which may result in an impromptu PvP battle, or you can also work together with other players to take down difficult bosses.
Dark Souls have earned a name of itself for being incredibly punishing - there will be a lot of dying - and for being creepy as af, but it is also a game that's pretty unique, and to some extent, revolutionary since many of the game mechanics present in this game isn't even heard of let alone used in any other games.
Rocket Royale
Rocket Royale is a battle royale mobile game that has a gameplay that's really similar to Fortnite: Battle Royale but with a nice little twist. Set in a dying world, you'll be competing with 99 other players on an island to survive. However, unlike many other battle royale games, everyone in this game potentially can "win" the game simply by collecting enough materials and supplies to build a rocket to escape the island. Of course, you could also play the devil's advocate and stop other players from building their rockets just so you can be the last person standing.As mentioned, this game is similar to Fortnite's Battle Royale mode mainly because players can choose to use the materials they've gathered to build covers and shelters instead of a rocket and hopefully end up getting that coveted victory royale. Interestingly though, the game includes portals, allowing players to quickly move from one place to another on the vast map. There are plenty of weapons, over 20 of them in fact, for you to find scattered across the map as well.
Rocket Royale brings a nice twist to the generic battle royale gameplay, giving everyone a chance to "win" so to speak. However, whether or not you can make it out of the island alive, well... that remains to be seen!
