Faster Than Light vs Neo Cab
Faster Than Light
Faster Than Light is a pretty unique indie game where you build amazing spaceships, manage your crew and set off to explore the vast, randomly generated galaxy in search of adventure and perhaps a fight. As your ship is built part by part, the enemy can attack specific areas of your ship as well. This means you'll likely encounter various challenging incidences during combat that will force you to think on your feet to save your ship at all costs... since the game's permadeath feature means you will not get a second chance if you lose your ship. Sometimes, you'll also need to make critical decisions to, for example, reroute what remaining juice you have into your shield for a last-ditch effort to defeat the enemy or to your engines while hoping for a quick getaway so you can fight another day.Although its simplistic appearance, Faster Than Light has a very intruiging gameplay that will truly challenge your ability as the commander of a spaceship. The scenarios you encounter are fun enough to solve, the permadeath drastically increase the stakes in the game, and of course, the battles are equally as exciting.
Neo Cab
Neo Cab is an in-depth interactive story where you play as Lina, one of the very last few human driver-for-hire at Neo Cab in a futuristic yet dystopian world where everything, including taxi services, is getting increasingly automated. Converse with your passengers and maybe they’d reveal their secrets. If you’re lucky, you may even uncover important clues that will lead you to your missing friend, Savy.Neo Cab is a fascinating and thought-provoking interactive story that places a lot of emphasis on the value of cab conversations and the way mood can affect what we say. It also makes you really think about the consequences of certain advancements in technology and how massive corporations that are large enough to circumvent any oversight placed on them, can monopolize all aspects of our lives. Of course, there’s even an overarching story where you’re trying to find your missing friend who disappeared under some pretty worrying and mysterious circumstances.
So, if you’re into games that have amazing storytelling and where your choices will affect your relationship with the many quirky characters in the game, then Neo Cab is definitely a game that’s right up your alley. Trust me, it’s worth the price!
