Faster Than Light vs Virtual Villagers: The Secret City
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.
Virtual Villagers: The Secret City
Virtual Villagers: The Secret City is the third game in the Virtual Villagers series. In this game, you'll need to send your little villagers on a perilous yet necessary journey to re-populate the lost city of Isola. Thankfully, the place where the city was rumored to be on is rich with resources that can help your tribe to not only survive but also thrive... as long as you are there to guide them along. In addition to the intriguing storyline, this game also provides real-time weather which will greatly improve your gaming experience.If you're a fan of the Virtual Villager series, you wouldn't want to miss out on this game, but even if you're not, you might want to try this game out, especially if life simulation games are kind of your jam.
