Eldarya vs Life is Strange
Eldarya
Eldarya is a free-to-play fantasy romance and adventure game where you'll get to play as a heroine in your own anime-themed story. By happenstance, you found yourself trapped in the magical and gorgeous world of Eldarya, and by being the newest addition to the world, it's up to you to explore the world, make new friends (or enemies), and maybe find a way back to your homeworld. Being a story-driven game, Eldarya features dialogue-based choices that you can select from, but every choice you make will come with consequences - they can be either good (helps you gain favor with a certain individual which may eventually lead to a date) or bad (offends the person instead).Eldarya may not look like much, though its anime graphics are simply superb, but it has tons of plotlines for you to discover, characters to meet, and a fun community to play the game with. So, if you're up for a romantic adventure through a magical world, Eldarya should definitely on your list of games to pick!
Life is Strange
Life is Strange is an episodic graphic adventure game where you'll get to follow the story of Max Caulfield, a photography student at Blackwell Academy who accidentally discovers she can rewind time when she stumbled upon a murder scene in the academy's bathroom. Soon after, she hooked up with her new friend, Chloe Price, in an attempt to use her gift to solve a string of disappearances around the town of Arcadia Bay.Featuring an incredibly engaging story that has multiple endings depending on the choices you make, the game doesn't only perfectly presents its characters' personalities, but also touches on the so-called butterfly effect that time reversals will cause. The game is also filled with brilliant indie soundtracks that enhance the overall game experience, further immersing you into its story.
Life is Strange can be purchased on Steam and is available in 5 episodes in total. There is also another expansion, Life is Strange: Before the Storm, that's coming soon. You can try its First Episode demo for free as well!
