Gift of Parthax vs Nosgoth
Gift of Parthax
Gift of Parthax is a 2D action arcade-arena game that's set in a world where there's a conflict between magic and non-magical users in the kingdom of Duredyll, resulting in a massive civil war. Two best friends, Arif and Veleus, were caught right in the middle and in their haste to escape, they, unfortunately, got themselves captured by agents of Duredyll and thrown in prison. Veleus was eventually released only to be sent straight to the grand arena to fight (and die) for the amusement of the spectators. He fought valiantly but was eventually fell by a powerful spell, and ended up in a coma, barely hanging onto life.In hopes of saving his friend, Arif broke out of prison and headed to the arena where Veleus has fallen, intending to fight his way through the top and challenge the reigning champion, Parthax. Parthax has a very special gift that can save Veleus' life but Arif will have to wrestle it from his dead body!
Aside from the fantastic storyline, this game features a fun yet intense gameplay where you'll need to constantly be on the move and avoid projectiles and danger areas on the ground. It also has an amazingly in-depth spell customization system, allowing you to create the spell that suits your play style through the use of Runes.
Gift of Parthax is, without a doubt, an amazing game that will definitely appeal to fans of shoot 'em ups/ arcade-style fighting games!
Nosgoth
Nosgoth is an exciting and fun MMO action/TPS game that pits the vampires against the humans in an all-out bloodbath. Gameplay-wise, Nosgoth offers a huge variety of play styles that you can experiment with by trying out the different classes and the perfect loadout (the abilities). There are also a range of game modes that you can try out in the game. In terms of storyline though, the game deviates quite a lot from the original lore in Legacy of Kain, and thus, it may disappoint fans of the original single player games. If you love games like WolfTeam (scaling walls and using claws to attack) or Left 4 Dead (switching sides after a round is done), Nosgoth is a great and unique free-to-play game that you'll enjoy.Unfortunately, the game has been shut down since the end of September last year, but thankfully, we've got a whole list of similar games for you to check out! Do take a look!
