Dead Town - Zombie Survival vs Risk of Rain
Dead Town - Zombie Survival
Dead Town - Zombie Survival may not look like much but it is a pretty hardcore zombie survival game that may rival that of Last Day on Earth: Survival despite having more simplistic visuals. In this game, you'll need to survive in a dead town filled with zombies. You'll need to scavenge, craft and cook a variety of items in the morning just so you can make it to the next day, and most importantly, you'll need to build a base to defend against the zombie hordes that will attack you during the night. Naturally, there will be a ton of zombies to kill and weapons to use as well.Being a pretty much endless game, you just need to survive as long as you can. If you're defeated, you have to start all over again.
Dead Town - Zombie Survival may be more of a survival game with some tower defense elements than an actual survival game like Last Day on Earth: Survival, but in terms of difficulty and depth, both games are pretty comparable. Who knows? You may end up liking this game as much as you've enjoyed Last Day on Earth!
Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a rogue-like, action platformer that is difficult enough to be challenging and is punishing (perma-death). You can choose to face the constantly spawning enemies alone - well, not exactly since you'll have your drone - or cooperatively with up to 3 other friends in hopes of collecting all the tools you need to find the teleporter machine and to finally, head back home. The enemies you fight are randomly generated by combining traits and abilities from a fixed yet extensive list as well, making the game a lot more unpredictable and hence, enjoyable.In addition to the 12 unique characters that you can unlock and a plethora of powerups to use, the game is also set on a mysterious planet with diverse biomes, ranging from dark forests to the frozen tundra. There is even an engrossing storyline which you can slowly piece together by collecting items and monster logs in your adventures.
Risk of Rain is definitely a fun and challenging platform game to play alone, but it particularly shines when you play it with friends. Time just seems to fly by in co-op mode and of course, let's not forget about the hilarious moments when one of you messed up (intentionally or otherwise).
