Helmet Heroes vs Wuppo
Helmet Heroes
Helmet Heroes is a free-to-play, 2D platform-based MMORPG that not only has a Maplestory feel to it, but it’s also a child-oriented game due to its cartoonish graphics. Here, you’ll get to play as one of four adventurers who set out to explore an amazingly diverse world filled with various creatures to fight and loot to collect. The game also features a satisfying progression system whereby your character development is not hampered by your chosen class, a pretty challenging gameplay, and it can be somewhat punishing if you die while carrying a ton of cash.In some way, Helmet Heroes plays a lot like a simplified version of the platformer, Maplestory, with a hint of Mario albeit minus the anime part. The game focuses a lot on exploration whereby you’ll get to discover odd regions filled with as equally odd creatures which you farm for a chance to get the item you want. Item-stealing is a pretty fun aspect of the game and it reminds me a lot of the old Runescape, but the game does give the person who dealt the most damage looting priority, at least for the first few seconds. The open-ended-styled character development, despite having you to choose a class at the beginning, may also bring Runescape to mind.
So, all said and done, if you enjoy playing 2D platformer/MMORPGs, then Helmet Heroes is a game you should check out! The game’s free after all, and it can be played by the whole family as well.
Wuppo
Wuppo is an incredibly-cute and charming, 2D platformer with fun puzzles, unique art, tons of collectibles, and interesting boss fights. In this game, you'll need to help Wuppo the Wum return to the Wumhouse in which it was evicted from, but of course, the task isn't as easy as it sounds! Even if you’re not a particularly huge fan of such games, Wuppo will still be able to make you fall in love with its adorable charm. It’s really that good!From the few hours I’ve spent playing Wuppo, I can attest that it absolutely deserves its Overwhelming Positive rating on Steam. The game isn’t just an adorable game; it also comes with some pretty tricky jumping puzzles/ obstacle courses; interesting boss fights and a ton of story that will make you not only fall heads-over-heels with Wuppo itself but also with the world Wuppo lives in. Definitely a game worth its asking price!
