Faster Than Light vs Tiny Tower
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.
Tiny Tower
Tiny Tower is a community-building game where you get to literally set up a community of cute little bitizens in a tiny tower that can be constantly expanded by adding new floors and decorating them. There are many different types of floors you can add, some of which will help improve the living conditions for your current residing bitizens while others many attract new bitizens to move to your tower.You can also cater to the needs of your inhabitants by peeking into their minds and see what they are thinking through the game's amusing virtual social network, BitBook. To make things more interesting, there will be special VIP visitors from time to time along with special missions to complete. You can even trade bitizens with your friends now.
In some way, the game does feel a lot like a city-building game despite the fact that you'll be simply building a pretty much self-sustaining tower, but it interestingly plays out like Fallout Shelter though, by being a tower, you'll be building upwards rather than downwards. If you love this sort of simulation, be sure to download the game on your mobile devices - it's free - and try it out!
